No, it's not just you, Medio. It does look better zoomed in. I think this is probably one of those styles that suit small regional maps more than world maps, but you can use it either way.
Here are the last few symbols for part 2. There are a few more in progress, but the completion date is today/tomorrow, so these are (officially at least) the last ones shown with a few of the existing trees and hills for scale. It might be worth noting that I have reduced the inner opacity on the edge fade of the farmland to 80 from 100. That makes it easier to see the symbols.
Well its a... it's a.... well... it's a... tower. Yes, that's what it is on the record :)
It's meant to be an 'evil tower', but it can be whatever you want it to be. My thinking about a tower of (or for) evil is that since evil is an inanimate thing of some kind it doesn't really need a house with windows and walls, but just a place to exist in a greater concentration. That greater concentration is symbolised by the glow.
Looking at it I think it is either "VGER" from Star Trek The Motion Picture or the new mounting for the evil eye thing in Lord of the Rings after the volcano blew up and in the 5372 sequel, it was built by an evil sect of cartographers seeking to redesign the world.
In Fact, we need an Eye of Sauron to add to it! It could of course be a magic focus for the very Good Witch Glinda, or a teleport as per weirdo Stargate. Or a cafe selling magic icecream
I really like this.. was looking to see if there was an existing Map of Devils tower area for a campaign I am running. If anyone needs any more or history around Devils Tower let me know as I have collected some tidbits for background.

Here are the desert symbols all done up.
It´s me the only one that thinks this style looks ten times better the bigger zoom you do?

Only 16 days to go
Sue, I don't know what this is, but it looks awesome! I already know ways to creatively use this!

No, no. It's Tinkerbell's Giant Grasping Claw.?
Oh that's better. I wish I had thought of that.

1.7k views. Fascinating.
LOL!
I read all of you discussing what it really is and it strikes me that you all have much more imagination than I do! :D
So does this mean it really IS a cafe selling magic icecream? Oh goody
Well, not exactly 'mint choc-chip', but if you want it to be so :)
Great.
The magic ice-cream's clearly raging hot curry flavour.
Or super-terrifyingly strong orange flavour?
So, supernova orangeade, then?
Have we hijacked your thread long enough yet, @Loopysue ? ?
Hey, I think you might just have invented a great name for a new line of ices! :)
Now worries, Wyvern. We map, and we chat, and then we map some more ;)
