features

• Cropping feature uses Jcrop in conjunction with Paperclip: Jcrop displays a cropping interface and posts the crop coordinates to the server; the Rails controller sets the crop coordinates on the model, and Paperclip processes the photo and creates a thumbnail using the coordinates.

• Drag & drop sorting uses jQuery Sortable. Photos are given a default order_id of Time.now when created. After a photo is dragged and dropped, the photo is assigned a new order_id between the order_ids of its neighbors, and the new order_id is posted to the server.

• Upload from URL: when the URL is posted to the server, its content is base64-encoded and saved on the model.

• Toggle between vertical (like the Instagram feed) and grid layouts for viewing photos.
