Community Atlas WIP - Panaur region of Doriant
Remy said he didn't like buttons. So I made the campsite into a dark and light version.
It's not that I don't like buttons, it is just that setting up toggle switches is simply more work than just handle a straight-forward map. But generally, a map with toggles are preferable to having multiple maps of the same location. The linking system in the atlas is primarily designed to link different locations together, and doesn't work as well when linking two different versions of the same map together, primarily because there is no sensible way to indicate a linking spot on the map itself for that purpose, so it will only be in the sidebar (or below the map in the web version viewer)

Thanks @Royal Scribe , it is in the atlas now.
It doesn't have a map description, either. I can write one if you'd prefer that I include one.
No, please don't. Descriptions are intended as an optional extra for those that have additional information they wish to provide about the map, not a requirement.
Initially, descriptions was meant as a way for mappers to talk about technical details about their map (how they made it, and so on) to help people learn from the maps in the atlas. But people have twisted it over to be used for world lore instead. Which is fine, I guess.

This is why I like these single simple maps without any description text or toggles. They are very quick for me to do when I find the time, while larger map dumps or more complicated setups require more time, so they get stuck in my queue until I have a larger chunk of time available.
(Of course, if a map is supposed to be part of a set (like a multi-floored building/dungeon), it is better to get the whole set at once since it will be less time per map compared to going back and forth for every map as they arrive one by one, but I still need to be able to find a larger chunk of time)

Also, I have now processed every map in my queue. So if you have sent me a map and it hasn't been added, it means that I have overlooked it somehow, and you need to remind me (Hint: if you just post it on the forum but without tagging me with an @Monsen and explicitly saying you are done, or sending me a PM or email, I am quite likely to not notice the map is done)
