*Garren*: I really wanted to do it that way, I began with http://documentcloud.github.com/backbone/examples/todos/index.html as a template. Which is pretty much as you described.
However because this differs in that I have a favourites and flickr results which both have "click img" to preview, and "click span.active" to add/remove from favourites. I found I was duplicating a lot of the same code in both the PictureView and within the App View, which felt wrong so I put it back into the generic AppView (a view will only work with one backend model/collection as far as I understand). Certain features I understand and i'm a fan of, like event delegates and templating. Although Models and Collections are convoluted and deeply engrained in the AppView so not really modular coding, perhaps more white elephant. (this is a cry for help, and not a rude diss). *Johannes*: thats a little to abstract for my mind to take in right now. but thanks.
