    Looking great.

    But might I suggest a minor addition: that there be cloud both above and below the floating island, to make it look like it is floating through the clouds.

    Thanks...One of the earlier versions had both, but popular consensus seemed to be to have the 'island' above the clouds.

    This looks absolutely wonderful. I really like the way you muted the ground. It looks great.

    Thanks people...it wouldn't be where it is without your comments/suggestions/etc.

    Now I just need a good name for the castle...maybe Castle Anthrax! (just kidding )

    OK, still looking for a good name for the castle itself. I was leaning toward something that referenced '5', for example Castle Pentax. But the more I thought about it the less I wanted to limit my self to the whole "quin/pent" kinda name.

    So if anybody wants to throw out some ideas I'd appreciate it. Maybe if we get several really good ones we can set up a poll and let the community pick the name.

    Oh, also looking for some ideas for borders around the map, not something I normally do, but I think this one calls for one.
