Vellum: Sorry I've not had time to update for ages. From tomorrow, though, uni is over, and I'll be back to mapping.

Hey keep up the good work at school, mapping always takes second place LOL. V

I really like this! The text looks a whole lot better in my opinion! Typography is a huge part of the mapping process whether people realize it or not.

I can't say I'm a big fan of the blocky-squares that are lighter and randomly places (You can see this a lot next to Allend's Tower, Jerreckus, and Alderii) but other than that it looks good!

Thanks for the praise, Key. I have to say, I am still struggling with the text. I still haven't figured a way to do it to my satisfaction. To be honest, I hadn't noticed the blocky bits, but I agree, they don't look too good. I think it happens because of the image resolution, and possibly a bit to do with my method. Time for some more experiments, I suppose.
