Everyone who owns a house knows that there is always an endless list of things that need to be done. One of the items on my personal list happened to do some tiling in behind a section of our stairs that the plasterer could not reach.
Now while on holiday in India a few years back, one of the places we visited was Jaipur, or the pink city. Something not so well known about Jaipur is that they are also famous for the blue pottery. We bought some coat hanger hooks which had some blue tiles. This got me thinking that it would be great to use some similar tiles for our little spot of tiling.
But then the problem was what tiles to use, what and what would they look like, there are hundreds to choose from and all various sizes. So I thought to myself how would I know what the final product I need some tool that I can simply plug in a set of images, and it will arrange them just like they are on a wall. And I decided to use glade-3, with simple window containing a GtkTable, and loads of GtkImages, one for each tile.
It was really cool, and worked a treat...
