What is the UI control that skydrive uses for display tiles? Eg, like on this page http://blogs.msdn.com/b/windowsappdev/archive/2012/09/12/integrating-your-cloud-service-with-the-file-picker-contracts.aspxTuesday, February 19, 2013 5:25 PM

That looks like a GridView (the horizontal version of the ListView)

It requires some significant customization. The details will depend on if you are using HTML or Xaml. If you will clarify which you are using I can move this to the appropriate forum for you.
For an overview of how to do this in Xaml (based on pre-release code, but the concepts are the same) see How To: Create a Variable Sized Grouped GridView (like the store)
