    Nicely done :)

    I think I like the top map more.

    Don't forget that if you want something like the grass on the left but not the same, maybe a slightly different colour, I think there are a couple of other similar fills in the same style as that one. Or you can use that same fill and use sheet effects to change it's colour, maybe.

    If you mean the same as the grass on the left then this shouldn't be too difficult to sort out because the texture you want is already available in the map.

    Use the Change Properties tool |CC2MCHANGE| to change the fill.

    If there is a fill that you want to use that isn't already in the map we can do that too, but I won't clutter up your thread unnecessarily.

    What aren't you happy about?

  • Questions about converting into a png file

    @Quenten You're welcome :)

    It does relate to the thread more than you think, because it explains why AA shouldn't be used to export an image when you intend to remove the background in GIMP or PS. Using the colour picker to pick the background is complicated by the many different shades of variation around the edges as Remy pointed out above.

    There is a way around it in GIMP, but it is a crude method and doesn't always work very well. I pick the background white with the selection colour picker, invert the selection, sharpen it, shrink it by 1 or maybe even 2 pixels, invert the selection again and then delete the background along with the fuzzy edge. It is much easier if the fuzzy edge created by AA doesn't exist in the first place.
