Hi, here are some responses to your suggestions: 1. Sharing a Story Map to your Organization or a Group should work, but you need to also share the maps and layers in your story in the same way. If you share a story to your org using the Share button in the story map then the maps and layers will automatically be shared the same way. Sharing your story (and its maps and layers) to a group can only be done using the tools in My Content on ArcGIS.com at this time. The November 2015 release of ArcGIS Online brought updates to the Storytelling apps and you will now be notified of sharing errors when you open your Story Map and you can fix them using the tools in the Share dialog. 2. Can you provide a little more information about this? I'm not sure what you mean by quicker route or the URL that you referenced. 3. We can't document every exception, but when you click Next the URL you enter will be checked to see if it points to a valid image file. If it doesn't you'll get an error so you'll know immediately if the image will work in your Story Map or not. 4. When configuring images or videos the option to FIT will ensure that all of the media is visible. Owen ... View more

Ah, ok -- sounds like you might want to build a Map Tour with your images and a point layer and then embed that in one of the tabs of your Map Series app (using the "web page" option).

Hi Luke, Sure, you can put any type of layer in your web map: points, lines, polygons, tiles, imagery, etc. There's no way to configure the app to zoom when you click on a point on the map, although that would be something a developer could customize the app to do by writing JavaScript code. I'm not quite sure I understand the zooming behavior you are describing. Can you describe a little more the experience you are trying to create and maybe I can help find another way to help. Owen ...
