    Welcome to the Challenge Fran! The sketch is looking good!

    The image is only a little bigger than the 10 MB limit. you could reduce the size or resolution just a little or if you are posting a png file you could post it in jpg.

    I read that with the support of the guild you get more storage... how much is this?

    I'm all for supporting the guild, it's a great place. However, you should convert your map to JPEG, even at the highest quality (12) with no noticeable loss of quality it drops to 2.3MB and at high quality (8 ) with negible loss in quality it drops to 669KB.

    PNG is good for images needing transparencies or images with very low color counts. JPEG is good for sharing artwork like your map. I still suggest keeping a PNG or BMP of your map for yourself and to work off of to preserve the pixels perfectly, but for sharing, no one will notice the quality degradation of the JPEG.

    With that said, your map is looking awesome, I thought about doing Neverland but glad I didn't as I couldn't do it anywhere near as well as you!

    Nice layout. This reminds me of a higher quality version of the sort of map that you might see printed in the pre-AD&D era of Dungeons and Dragons. I really dig it.

    Cheers,
