Attachment: Rough events wireframes (already outdated!)

These were created before I saw the updates in the products requirements doc, but I wanted to share them here regardless before the weekend. A few things I know we have to change and think further on:

- users no longer allowed to register for events via wmo. Will think of this section more as "how do I promote my event that I created on Eventbrite or elsewhere"
- Map functionality may need to be surface only
- Visually, will need to consider the other views, and how to make the mosaic view as usable as possible - not too overwhelming. Differentiating each event by color is too much, need to pare this down (the iteration on page 3 in the pdf clearly demonstrates this!)

Questions:

- do we expect users to have photos/thumbnails for their events
- how exciting does the feature area need to be. e.g. right now, there is text and map pins – should we restrict this to image + text only or expect there to be variable functionality in this area
- what is the simplest way from a dev perspective to implement our mvp for June 15?

And I'm sure more Qs will arise as we go through the next iterations. More questions and comments on these roughs are more than welcome.
