• scroll, in response to the detected horizontal user interaction, the collection of digital content items in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal linear scroll element through the view area at a first scroll rate while maintaining an orientation of the digital content items of the collection of digital content items relative to one another within the grid, wherein the first scroll rate is based on a first scrolling ratio;
• detect a vertical user interaction provided on a portion of the touchscreen displaying a digital content item of the collection of content items within the view area of the graphical user interface;
• scroll, in response to the detected vertical user interaction, the collection of digital content items in a vertical direction through the view area at a second scroll rate while maintaining the orientation of the digital content items of the collection of digital content items relative to one another within the grid, wherein the second scroll rate is based on a second scrolling ratio different from the first scrolling ratio;
• access a plurality of attributes associated with each of the digital content items;
