    I like it. It gives me all kinds of warm fuzzies. Any particular reason why you put the prime meridian where you did?

    Just liked the look and centered the bad guy city-state of Gorthal on the anti-meridian which marks the last known civilized area around the Kessan Sea.

    I love that hyspo tint. A while back I was in a class-room that had a big map on the wall using similar colours...really liked it. Only had my camera phone (so apologies for the quality). I wonder if we should start a hypso tint sticky in the elements section?

    lol, thanks.
    After looking at the fantastic maps in the Cartographers Choice section I almost didn't post mine, you need a Bad Mappers forum for the rest of us.

    I don't think it's a bad map. It's really effective looking and you can tell it's not just been thrown together. I'd like to see what you could produce if you used software with actual features. =P

    This looks really nice, and doubly so considering you did it in Paint!

    Hobgoblin samurais control the land, the subjugated human peasants are pirate ninja clans.

    Dude, if you can get something more impressive than a stick figure out of MSPaint... you're either MASSIVELY stubborn OR worthy of joining the "Leet People".
