Usability Problems:
...
- "Add Content" can be confusing, if it is adding it to the site or the selected album.
- Type: Internal Consistency
- Severity: Minor
- Solution: Replace with Upload
- "Submit" is not consistent with other sites.
- Type: External Consistency
- *Severity: *Minor
- *Solution: *Replace with Upload
- Dragging a single file without selecting (clicking on it) it does not work.
- Type: Efficiency
- Severity: Major
- Solution: Consider adding the functionality for this. This could however breach internal consistency.
- "Choose File" and always having "No File Chosen" on the mobile site is confusing.
- Type: Internal/External Consistency
- *Severity: *Minor
- *Solution: *Replace with Upload button and remove the "No FIle Chosen" field
- No idea there was functionality for editing the description and didn't know how.
- Type: Learnability
- Severity: Major
- *Solution: *Add right click functionality for editing the description as well as a button at the top of the mosaic for editing. (Similar to remove content button)
- Confusing that the description when added was not displayed in the mosaic.
- Type: Learnability
- *Severity: *Minor
- *Solution: *Add functionality for the users to be able to show descriptions below pictures in the mosaic. Option in account settings or in the mosaic button bar.
- Likes the idea of using a trash can album for removing content
- Type: External Consistency
- *Severity: *Minor
- *Solution: *Add a static album that when content is added to it removes it from all other albums.
- Upload Modal having album selected to "None" gives users the idea that it might not get added to the site even if they submit content properly.
- Type: Internal Consistency
- *Severity: *Major
- *Solution: *Change "None" to "All Content"
- Upload Modal gets too big and the submit button is inaccessible if the picture height is too big.
- Type: Bug
- *Severity: *Catastrophic
- Solution: Set a max height for how each picture is displayed in the upload modal. Also, make that div scrollable for an overflow and not the entire modal.
- When a picture belongs to too many different albums, the modal height gets too big and the submit button is inaccessible.
- Type: Bug
- *Severity: *Catastrophic
- *Solution: *Make that div scrollable for an overflow and not the entire modal.
