    Well, I decided to change my text and text labels to differing shades of blue, with the lightest turquoise glow behind it. I also raised the level of the glow so that it would stand out a bit. I then added a lighted bevel to my text and text labels to make them a bit more defined. I also found a much simpler font to use for the smaller print. I will leave the fancy font for the Title itself.

    Azelor, unfortunately, as far as I know... you can't blur symbols in cc3+. not unless you hand draw them... which I just don't have the talent for. But I hope these labels are better. I also added more by the way of labels.

    All I have left to do, is add my scale, my copyright, and my title, and this map will be complete. I'm also trying to decide if I'm going to keep the map border or not. I have a really cool idea, but I don't know if it will work. I will be trying it soon.

    until then, I hope you enjoy!
    Like a thief in the night
    she comes with no form
    yet tranquility proceeds
    the accursed storm...

    On all three of our computers, the text comes up black, not blue (at least in the CG JPG conversion), but that's all right. Black looks fine. Everything is easily readable now, which is a substantial improvement.

    RE: The Border, which is generating a lot of comment. The current black and white border, from my point of view, does nothing to enhance the map,. but it doesn't really damage it either. However, if it were my map, I would go with no border at all.
