Planet Android

As I’ve been alluding to in my Twitter feed, I’m on the cusp of deploying a new version of MediaDroid, huge re-write to image gallery, but hopefully I’ll get a post about that out later.  Anyway, the previous way I was marking the images to be included in the albums was to have a combo view with a check box and a thumbnail of the image.  Although this works, it takes up a lot of screen real estate and isn’t terribly efficient.  The next version of the image gallery I wrote extended the Android ImageView class and although this solution isn’t much more efficient (the solution for that is in my newest version), it certainly increases the number of images viewed at a time.
