July/August Lite Mapping Challenge: Black Talon Reach

[Mouse]

Oh that's beautiful. Congratulations - especially since you had to start all over again not so long ago

btw - Nice work pinning that snow down, Storm. You showed it you meant business

Edit: I think my eyes have gone a bit wonky, though. The copyright notice seems to be tilting slightly? Or is that just an illusion?

[ladiestorm]

no, it is... I couldn't get it straight after tilting the text in the buildings... my grid doesn't go down that far, and my shaking hands couldn't get it any straighter than what you see.

[Mouse]

Oh Storm! You poor thing! You really must stop working all the hours of the day, you know.

Never mind. It really is such a tiny thing to put right tomorrow or the day after. I suppose if the grid is off the map at that point you could always retype it and delete the slightly wonky one? The text should be horizontal by default the next time you open the map (I think).

[ladiestorm]

I'd have to get the text straight first... or it's always going to tilt on this map.

And my hands always shake hon That's why I can't draw worth a hoot, and needed a program to make my maps! I have carpal tunnel syndrome, and also slight nerve damage due to childhood injuries. It only affects my fine motor skills when I need exact precision. But I may see if I can do something to make it straight, and if I can, I will repost on Friday.

Hey! I've just discovered something!

Add new text, type it, but before you position it and while its still floating, hit zero and return on your keyboard, and it snaps to horizontal, ready for placement.

Try it!

I caught that on the other forum... I will, thanks!

This is going to be very useful!

[ladiestorm]

Useful how? Lol

Useful how? Lol

I will have my players try to capture the bandits that are living there, of course I may tell the bandits they are coming.

[ladiestorm]

Well then, you should probably know...that cave entrance? I leads to a labyrinth of tunnels under the mountains that come out near different mountain trails, perfect for ambush!
