Vertical or Horizontal? (vlemmy.net)

I always see pictures of people's collections with boxes stored vertically on their edge. Looks nice, but when I do this the pieces inside tend to get jumbled around.

What's the general consensus on the best way to arrange boxes on the shelf?

I'm predominantly vertical, but it depends on the game and where it's going more than anything else. Those Ticket to Ride type boxes that are large squares almost exclusively get set horizontal because I don't want to move the brackets on the shelf up. My Agricola/euro game boxes are all stored vertically. Regardless, I bag everything inside anymore which largely solves the pieces moving around aspect for me.
