Hi all! Is it possible to download or save the photos form the crowdsource gallery to my desktop or mobile device? If so, are the EXIF informations preserved in the images? Tom ... View more

Hello! Our Users would like to display the crowdsourced feature service attachments (photos)  in the web map's popup without to click on the attachment-link and open a new window. Is this function so hidden or actually not (yet) implemented? This would be a very important function for any further use of the crowdsource feature service in other webmaps. Perhaps it would be nice to implement picture-thumbnails as icons on the map from the crowsourced attachments (geotagged pictures). Thank you! ... View more

A few experiences with crowdsource story map on mobile devices: If I scroll down in the gallery I don't know how many photos there are and where I am in the list; it would be helpful to jump to the beginning of the gallery and to have a a numbering of the photos If I scroll to the top of the gallery page then the navigation buttons at the bottom disappear. Header and footer should always be visible (also on smaller screens). If I open a photo from the Gallery and tap "Map" at the buttom, nothing happens. Only  "Home" and "Partizipate" works. It seems, that the "X" to close the displayed image is a mouse-over effect (not working on mobile devices). Also the "Close" button at the bottom is not visible due to long descriptions, therefore the users do not know that they had to close the shown photo(s) to switch to the "Map". If I switch from a viewed photo to "Partizipate", then at the bottom "Home", "Map" and "Gallery" remain displayed. Only "Home" is working. If I go to "Home" and then switch to "Map", I'll be redirected to the "Partizipate" window (which is still open in the background). If I tap on "Gallery" from "Home", nothing happens.         It would be very helpful, to jump out of a single-photo view to the map to see where this photo was taken. Thanks in advance for your interest. ... View more

Hello again! Two more suggestions for the design of the mobile mapping application: at the initial start of the crowdsource map the navigation menu at the bottom are not visible (iPhone 5) there is no button for "full extent" scrolling is difficult for the users, because there is only the small area at the top (with the social media icons) to scroll the page (otherwise you move only the map extent) the social media buttons take much precious space - is there any idea for an alternate solution? ...

Hello! A few things to the photo upload on my iPhone 5 it isn't possible to take a photo with the camera - the screen is black because the space on mobile screens is very rare, I suggest to remove the social icons because nobody needs in this case and then, there would be more space for the input fields (like description, etc.) if I load a saved photo and would like to scroll down to the input fields, automatically an area in the photo will be selected to cut it (I'm not sure if this feature is helpful here, because you anyway could cut & rotate with the camera function) ...
