<p>This just happened to me when going to OpenStreetmap.org on a new browser:<br>
<a href="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514678/cc84e7ea-7a92-11e6-80c2-cebc5963a3d3.png" target="_blank"><img src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514678/cc84e7ea-7a92-11e6-80c2-cebc5963a3d3.png" alt="capture du 2016-09-14 15-45-58" style="max-width:100%;"></a><br>
… the usual – maybe helpful but I click them away. ;)</p>

<p>Refresh / close the tab and later open OSM again:<br>
<a href="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514712/efeb9530-7a92-11e6-9fa9-2a734a6af66e.png" target="_blank"><img src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514712/efeb9530-7a92-11e6-9fa9-2a734a6af66e.png" alt="capture du 2016-09-14 15-46-23" style="max-width:100%;"></a><br>
Conference season I guess … clicking X.</p>

<p>Later, refresh / close again:<br>
<a href="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514737/08de37b4-7a93-11e6-986b-f7f948459ed7.png" target="_blank"><img src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514737/08de37b4-7a93-11e6-986b-f7f948459ed7.png" alt="capture du 2016-09-14 15-46-39" style="max-width:100%;"></a><br>
I especially like the design here :) But again I’m elsewhere, closing.</p>

<p>Refreshing again:<br>
<a href="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514764/22dcdc4c-7a93-11e6-99da-f0c4f20e59ea.png" target="_blank"><img src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514764/22dcdc4c-7a93-11e6-99da-f0c4f20e59ea.png" alt="capture du 2016-09-14 15-47-07" style="max-width:100%;"></a><br>
Not kidding – this has got to be a bug.</p>

<p>X-ing it and refreshing one last time:<br>
<a href="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514787/345e6ff8-7a93-11e6-8c47-94571f8b04dc.png" target="_blank"><img src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/925062/18514787/345e6ff8-7a93-11e6-8c47-94571f8b04dc.png" alt="capture du 2016-09-14 15-47-32" style="max-width:100%;"></a></p>

<p><em>Now</em> I can go ahead and use OSM in peace. ;)</p>

<p>Some takeaways:</p>

<ul class="contains-task-list">
<li class="task-list-item">
<input type="checkbox" class="task-list-item-checkbox" disabled> maybe just have <em>one</em> banner for all the state of the maps. It could even be customized based on the person’s language/location</li>
<li class="task-list-item">
<input type="checkbox" class="task-list-item-checkbox" disabled> never have multiple banners where after clicking all of them away, after refresh there’s more coming ;)</li>
<li class="task-list-item">
<input type="checkbox" class="task-list-item-checkbox" disabled> a nice image like for the SotM banners might be nice for the default intro banner. Or maybe icons for the buttons. Like an info »i« for the »Learn more« and a map for the »start mapping«</li>
<li class="task-list-item">
<input type="checkbox" class="task-list-item-checkbox" disabled> I’d cut the »Welcome to OpenStreetMap« to instead make the very good short description below more present</li>
</ul>

<p>(And as always, thank you for the awesome work! :) Hope my feedback helps.)</p>
