I am trying to include a picture in the cover of my story map and I need to embed this map into our website.  The website seems to want to enlarge the cover picture to fill the container space and won't display the rest of the map.  Is anyone aware of a fix for this?  Thanks!

@LeighErik - If you click Design at the top of the screen, you will see a panel that provides six cover styles for you to choose from. Some of the cover styles crop the media while others do not. I would recommend that you try each of the cover styles to see which is best.

Thank you for the reply OwenGeo.  I was trying to get the full cover design to work because I liked that one the best.

I was running into the same issue this week. We ended up removing the cover but if there's another work around I would be happy to hear!
