What is your favorite way to visualize... Anything, images, files, music, games, etc?

In grid is aesthetically appealing, but I find it very difficult to visually locate what I'm looking for quickly. In list, on the other hand, it's boring as fuck, but it's stupid easy to find anything.

Nothing will ever beat the windows XP menu formats. They're ugly and dated now, but I can't imagine anything more efficient.

Edit : that said my favourite is grid for media. I'm having difficulty remembering names these days, and I can more easily spot what I'm looking for by remembering the rough colour/shape of the game icon. It's basically lost forever when they update it and the image changes.
