I am new!
Hello! I stumbled across this fine place while I was searching google cluelessly, trying to find help getting a world map for my rpg setting.
I am 40, and my main hobby has always been role playing games. I am working on a setting for a game I will be running with fourth edition dnd when it comes out. Must....Have....pretty...World Map!!!
Will trade rent money for Maps!

Thank you! I recently got CC3, but I am not past the 'learning curve and pull out my hair stage' yet. There is hope, however, as I am seeing a lot of really impressive maps that people are making here!
Hi, BIll, & welcome!
Perhaps considering posting as you go & you asking for assistance step-by-step? We have some very talented CC users here at the Guild who would be more than happy to help. This method will take longer, but may yield nice results & teach you a lot, too.
Once again, welcome!

Keep plugging away at it. From what I hear it's a lovely bit of kit and some of the maps I've seen it produce look terrific. Do follow the tutorials. If it's anything like CC2 it's really counter-intuitive, no dragging and dropping etc. but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty powerful.

I'm a 38 year old old-school-ish gamer myself, mostly 1E & 2E but some non TSR games, too. I also happen to be a nOOb here, so greetings from a fellow new arrival!
In just a couple days I've already gleaned an amazing amount of good info on computerized mapping software. You've definately come to the right place for cartography expertise!
Thank you all for the warm welcome!
