How long is your Homescreen?

I always wondered how many tiles other people put on their frontpage.

Myself, I can only handle two screens worth of icons. That way I only need to swipe all the way up or down, and never miss any tiles in the middle.

Also, the tiles must form a pleasant irregular grid of big and small tiles, and while there shouldn't be too much custom colored tiles present at once, a delicate balance is required.

How do you manage your Startscreen?
 
I usually group my apps in folder , weather,WPC are large tiles on my lumia 920. I don't even have to scroll ;)
 
Mine is about 4 display heights. I like to have a mixture of regularly used apps and some that could come in handy. I only use a few additional tiles for specific WhatsApp or People groups, the rest are just the normal app (live) tiles. I do tile grouping only with small tiles, but with black background, so they visually stand out.



I find 4 screen heights on my 8X to be comfortably scrollable with just on flick. If native folder support is coming to all WP8 devices, I might use it for collecting more detail live tiles ...
 
22 small sized tiles vertically....
A medium, 4 small, a medium
4 small, a medium, 4 small
A medium, 4 small, a medium
4 small, a medium, 4 small
A medium, 4 small, a medium
4 small, a medium, 4 small
........
 
10 medium tiles, so about two screens on my 920 when I'm using the three column option.

Probably more in the two column mode.
