    Every time that you make a map you learn something. Whether it be what to do or what not to do or what you can do faster or different. So that's a good thing. Don't worry about winning...took me a year and a half to get a win. So on to the map. The forest looks better with the extra colored trees but the shapes are very regular. No big, learn how to make more trees next times. I think your houses could use a bigger shadow to help them stand out a bit more. The forest could use some shadows, too.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
    -J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)

    You are absolutely right..(as usual) I had fun making this map and had to learn some stuff in the process. I might have sounded like I was disappointed that I think I won't win. I'm not..I can use this map in the new "Kingdom Of Shendenflar" website that I'm working on. I have to get all of this stuff up somewhere..god forbid if my house catches fire....*Gasp* thats a LOT of years of my life.... Oh and I'm going to take your advice about the shadows..
