Hi Guys

Hi mike it's a honor to hear from you. Actually I will take all the burden from the dev team and put it on my shoulder.

I knew this was going to really piss a lot of people and indeed I kept with that? Why? I really wanted to do things differently and innovate a litltle bit (with a price being usability in that case) but I think the concept was a little bit nice also (to have like your table o photos with proportional thumbnails. But in the end no so much people has those, etc etc.

But I really want to point out the great work did by the guys to fullfil my requirements. And yes.. it's missing the horizontal navigation widget (that's why you have the whole.. and vertical scrolling was natural for the concept of the proportional thumbnails. For sure it's worse than vertical, but I didn't want a grid. But I can also say something in my favor : I asked Gustavo for a fallback (the regular grid) on vertical scrolling for those who don't like.

the more I think this is by far the most controversial layout (but no a real problem compared to the way we need to tweak the main list of items ) I think the fallback will make it a lot more usable for those.

The goal here is really to provide a little bit of Quiver nice experience inside canola. We did not get it not even near but we will try to make everyone proud =)

Thanks guys..
