What is the best programmaticly approach to display images/icons horizontally?

Question

Hi, I'm trying to place the icons / images horizontally in a view that is intended to show details. Maximum number of pictures per row is 6 pieces and I want to have a mechanism that manage line breaks or similar automatically. I suspect it is a custom cell that solves this?

I have tried the following code below, but the images above to add another when I reload the view. Furthermore, the cell's height is not adjusted by the view that the code returned.

-(UIImageView *)fillView{
collage = nil;
collage = [[[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(11, 7, 0, 0)] autorelease];

int rowCounter = 0;
int colCounter = 0;
int nrOfPictures = [paymentImages count];

    //max 6 images per row
while (nrOfPictures > 0) {
    while (colCounter <= 6 && nrOfPictures != 0) {
        UIImageView *iv = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[paymentImages objectAtIndex:nrOfPictures-1]];
        CGRect frame = iv.frame;
        frame.origin.x = (frame.size.width + 4) * colCounter;
        frame.origin.y = (frame.size.height + 4) * rowCounter;
        iv.frame = frame;
        [collage addSubview:iv];
        [iv release];

        colCounter++;
        nrOfPictures--;
        if (colCounter > 6) {
            colCounter = 0;
            rowCounter++;
        }
    }
}   
return collage;

}

Can someone head me in the right direction?
