Scrolling/loading issues for final review

[Yana715]

This is from Tracy's contact:

• Map scrolling problem – this has to do with if people scroll a certain way as they do down they take the map with them. The result is that when they read the text below if they scroll up they are no longer focused on the area of the map we want them to be.

• The time line seems to be missing pictures. (FYI, it loads fine on my end, so I don't know if there is anything we can do it make it work better on someone else's computer)

I wasn't able to detect any map scrolling problem or really understand what problem they were describing. @Yana715, were you able to replicate this?

The time line is missing pictures. It's because the spreadsheet has shortened Flickr URLs, which don't work, as opposed to full URLs, which do work. For example, https://flic.kr/p/57WN6P vs. https://www.flickr.com/photos/swanksalot/2704017177/. I'm fixing this right now.

I've fixed the timeline image Flickr URLs. Leaving this open to until I hear back from @Yana715 about whether she saw any map scrolling weirdness.

Thanks, Geoff. Beyond this, I did not have any scrolling issues regarding
the map.

@Yana715, but were you able to replicate the issue described in this issue. I don't understand what this means:

Map scrolling problem – this has to do with if people scroll a certain way as they do down they take the map with them. The result is that when they read the text below if they scroll up they are no longer focused on the area of the map we want them to be.

This also isn't an issue for me - if I zoom into one part of the map, it
remains zoomed in even if I switch back to the text portion. That's how I
understood this issue.

@Yana715, thanks for the clarification. I'm going to close this and we can reopen/open a new issue if anyone's able to replicate map scrolling issues.

Are you guys reviewing the site as it is available currently online? Have
you looked at it in mobile? The banner/title section is pretty annoying
there.

I also noticed that the map stuff is a bit more annoying in mobile, mostly
because the only way you can scroll is by tapping. If you aren't careful
when you get to map, you can get sort of stuck in it. This is because the
map gets focus when you tap into it and the scrolling action starts
changing the position in the map rather than position in the website. If
you get into the middle section of the map, where neither the top or bottom
are visible, then you have to scroll in one of the directions until the
edge of the map comes into view (which does happen eventually, but leaves
the map far off center). Not sure if there's much to be done about this
anyway.
