    Wow, I love the colors, this looks so Christmasy Nice job!

    Don't feel you have to surround the map with mountains, that's a bit strange in reality. You can leave the edges just open off the edge of the map. I'm not sure what the big symbol in the Legend is meant to be, but a map needs a compass, otherwise it's not a map, it's just a pretty picture. A title is good, too.

    This is really great for a first map post! Have some rep

    Nice job BTR wish my first map was that good. The trees may be a little too big, but that always a problem with Mountains and Trees at such different sizes/scale. The outer glow/outline of the text could be a little less. Maybe the Legend's background doesn't need to be so stark white.

    Thanks for the feedback. I want to clarify, this is the first map I have posted to this site. It is not my first map.

    Here is another map I made a while ago.

    Same program, more brushes and more time.

    Cheers!
