I a UX designer exploring the Masonry interface for a project.

I want to upload my own blocks (photos of various sizes), and play around with the parameters to see how they influence the layout. I've looked for an online demo with an "upload" option, but couldn't find one.

  • There is no online demo where you can upload images to have them Masonry-fied and then go through Masonry's options. The plugin is, like its big brother Isotope, so easy to implement that you can easily test it yourself. – Systembolaget Aug 13 '12 at 18:31

If you go to http://masonry.desandro.com/ it has a number of demos there along with the code to download.

Hope this helps.

You can find a version here: http://benholland.me/javascript/how-to-build-a-site-that-works-like-pinterest/. There is also the wookmark jquery plugin which is free and less heavy: http://www.wookmark.com/jquery-plugin. Here is an example of a 2d-bin-packing in JS: http://incise.org/2d-bin-packing-with-javascript-and-canvas.html. There is also packagery from the same developer.

I would use Visual Studio Web Developer 2010 Express and make a localhost site with Desandro's masonry.js. found here. Its pretty simplistic to use. I had to put the script code before the end </body> tag to make it function correctly, but it might be different in other applications. And you have to get jquery.js, Desandro, (the coder for masonry) tells you how to implement it on his site.

Masonry.js is free to use, however isotope is non commercial unless you pay $25 to use it commercially.
