      The artist origin map is one of our most popular unique features, and it deserves some filing of the few rough edges it still has! (in my opinion).

      Simple-ish display changes:

      1. It only calculates the top 1,000 artists, which is a frequent source of confusion. I think this should be mentioned up top, perhaps even in the title. e.g. "Artist Origins (top 1,000 artists).
      2. If we don't want to put it up top, every other statistic has a little "how and when are statistics calculated" link under it, except for this one. We could put it into one of those.
      3. The text "Click on a country to see more details" seems to use a style and colour unlike anything else in LB. We could change the format, but I'm thinking maybe just get rid of it? We don't have a hint like that on any other graph on the page, and they all have click or rollover functions. Or maybe there is a clever way to indicate clicking, that I haven't thought of.
      4. If we don't get rid of the "Click on a country..." text, can we hide it at a small screen size? It's the only thing in the way of it looking pretty on mobile, where it shifts everything down.

          I have made changes to hide the text on Narrow Screens.
          Will make changes regarding the information rollover soon too.

          That already looks better to me, though I still don't like the purple font. If we hide the extra text on narrow screens/mobile then I'm happy!

          It might be that it's a bit more complicated than just counting the top 1,000, in which case we can put a little information rollover next to that part. Monkey will have to let us know how exactly the artists are picked to include in the map.

          Thoughts mr_monkey?
