Abstract
Particular embodiments provide a plurality of image elements arranged in a display layout. When user input selecting one of the image elements is received, a first animation sequence for an information panel associated with the selected image element may be displayed, wherein the information panel swings down from a bottom edge of the selected image element. As the information swings down, the selected image element may also be enlarged until it reaches a pre-determined size with respect to a display of the computing device. In response to receiving user input dismissing the selected image element, another animation sequence may shrink the selected image element while showing the information panel swinging up and eventually disappearing.
