    Decided to start again and use the Jon Robert's style with Sue's wonderful cliffs. Here is where I'm up to at the moment.

    C & C welcome, and in fact encouraged!

    Yes, great addition Sue. Thanks for your help over on the FB page...

    Ok, I've done it. The link wall is complete - for now

    Sue, I would think you would have other things to occupy your time, no??

    Seriously though, this is a really great resource. Whilst I would've liked to get all the Annuals in one go, $400+AUD is more than I can justify, so despite the great deal and content, I'll have to settle for getting them piecemeal. This will make it much easier to find the specific ones I'm interested in because my memory is shot!

    I meant it the first way - a great base map to start developing the rest of your campaign in a series of larger scale maps :)

    @Loopysue Cool. That's what I thought you meant, just checking. One can never be too sure in a purely text based medium. You're probably right about the waterfall, as is Remy, the rivers look the correct size now and that's using the small rivers tool. I'll save the waterfall for the regional map (if I make one for that area) and put your latest Annual masterpiece to good use! Can't wait to watch the Live Mapping video tomorrow!

    Map nerdiness: Map scale is a funny thing isn't it? Topographically speaking, the smaller the actual scale, the larger the map 'scale' is considered. The map above, for example, is drawn at a scale of something like 1:2,000,000 and is considered a small scale map, whereas a regional map would be drawn at a scale of something like 1:100,000 and be considered a larger scale map despite the actual drawing scales being the opposite...no wonder non-map people get confused.
