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?

Generally horizontal as in vertical orientation the pieces get all mixed up. There are few exceptions that work vertically, e.g. Sherlock Holmes consulting detective.

I would prefer to keep them in orientation where the artwork works best but jumbling of components and difficulties in hybrid stacking often preclude that.
