How to use jQuery Masonry with elements of different width?
I am implementing the jQuery Masonry plugin, but I have problems with elements wider than one column, meaning that the div width of all Masonry elements is not identical. Could anybody help me with this?

Answer
After a half day of trying different settings, trying to find out why my masonry plugin is not working, i read these post, i got the idea... i had to use the minimum common denominator of all my widths. But i had widths like 346, 278, 199... so i wondered, without any headache any of those widths is dividable by 1, so i tried... and magic happened, everything fell perfectly on into place.
So the simplest way to get it working, use 1 as columnWidth
