Thanks guys! mearrin69, the background is still being worked on - I never draw maps as standalone projects, they're all part of worlds I build. This, my sci-fi type universe, is currently in its second iteration. I am up to about 2800 AD in the timeline, and there's so much left to do.
Next minor update: Added a legend and a whole lot of star systems. Naming them took up way more time than I had thought. The "other worlds" are "notable worlds", that is, I don't intend for this map to show each and every inhabited system, let alone every star in the galaxy. I'll see how far I can go with adding named colonies before it becomes ugly and unwieldy.
That's looking very very cool! So are these all human realms, or are there alien planets/empires also?
edit: never mind; I just read through your timeline (very damn awesome, BTW) and answered my own question.

Yeah it's all human realms. The timeline is outdated though.
Minor Update again.
- Moved Sword Worlds, to be more consistent with the universe's history
- Added a whole bunch of labels
- Added the two pulsars that should be on this map (I think they're the only ones in the covered volume of space)
Say Hello to Pan Colonial. You can't beat the experience. We fly mankind the way mankind wants to fly, or something like that.
Looks good, just need to move the ship lane lines below your text level. Can't read most of your text now.

Oooops! Thanks! That was dumb of me. I've fixed it.
Update time again. As you can see, things got a lot livelier: I've added about a zillion human colonies to the map.
