Operation Barbarossa

I had quite a few troubles with this lab..But here's the final product! I also just realized that I did not change the width and height, resulting in the black background being much larger than it should be. I tried to re-size the symbols, but if I fixed one, then others would morph and it didn't look right; so I sized them the best that I could to fit right on the map.

This site shows the total medal count for each country that participated in the 2014 Olympics in Sochi. It's a pretty cool interactive map, you should check it out!
Also, the reason I couldn't attach the actual picture of the map was because the link to the address wouldn't work for the URL to post the picture, boo!
