A comment on Open sourcing the “quilt” view for iOS.

I prefer the horizontal "quilt" style to the vertical; I prefer rows with differing widths [1] to columns with differing heights [2].

Here's my MIT licensed implementation of a horizontal 'quilt' view: http://github.com/joshavant/JAGridView

In fact, the inspiration behind this layout was Google+/Picasa albums!

The horizontal one looks pretty cool too.

We used to have a horizontal quilt[1]. We got rid of it both for design reasons, and because the math behind it is much trickier and limits the layout (e.g. you can't do arbitrary ordering of the photos).
