Hallo all!

This site has encouraged me to introduce myself, and so I shall (mustn't disappoint!). I'm not really sure what to say though... I'm here because I'm far more computer-savvy than my childhood friend, who would like me to design the map for her hopefully soon-to-be-piblished book. I'm just looking for inspiration here, because, according to the claims of the site itself, this is a wonderful collection of the best mappers on the internet. I'm not sure what more there is to say, except that I would welcome anyone who has words of advice - I have already ravaged the tutorial section - and that said advice can be in either English (obviously, hehe) or German, if that is preferable.

Err, cheers I suppose,
Louisa
