Welcome!
The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.
Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

Thanks for the REP Chick, glad you like my map!
Thanks for the REP, My advantage is that DundJinni is designed to work with tiling textures. All I had to do was get the textures into a 200 x 200 pixel size at 200 dpi, then load them into DJ and it handles the rest. It kind of works like using texture brushes in photoshop only better.
Thanks for the Rep and the Vote!
Thanks for the REP! I do what I can.
Thanks for the vote.
Thanks for the rep and the vote! It is pretty easy to get the effect using Bevel and Emboss and Outer Glow in Photoshop.
