    Post Finally joined

    Hi

    I've often looked around this site and finally decided to join. I love maps and I like how members of the Guild care about the aesthetics of maps, something pretty much overlooked in the GIS world I work in.

    Priggs - Welcome to the Guild. I think that you'll really like it here. Please post some maps - even GIS maps can be beautiful. I think that they just provide a slightly different aesthetic than maps typically found here.

    Hi Priggs, it's great to have some more GIS mappers here. I'm sure that there is much that we can learn from you and hope that you find the guild useful for your mapping needs.
