i'd like to mibi...hehehe! but there are several colours in some of those circles/shapes and that makes it difficult to tell where some start and end. I think some are octagons also aren't they?

if you can't give me some measurements, then i'll do my best, but they don't sit comfortably. :?

I don't see too much of an issue, besides the fact that I would move most of them over a pixel or too. The small map is cramped for sure.

Zimmah....the coding is all done except for the centering of the armies.
Do you want to complete the centering?

mibi is there any reason you've switched the names of Harry and Bishop?

previously the guy on the bottom right was called Bishop and one of the fish in the yard was called Harry. Now they've switched and I'm wondering why. It doesn't seem like the names make sense for who they are. just a thought. I can change them easily but I just want to make sure they aren't going to change again.

Personally - I think it looks brilliant... I'm not sure what you mean here.

Mibi....here is a "partially done" version of centering of your large map.

I still say that your inmates octagons are off-center because instead of them being an even number of pixels w x h they appear on odd number, but the guard units and cell block normal circles are OK as per normal.

If you would, please check their sizes again, as I will not proceed with centering any further than this until these are corrected so that the inmates octagons are corrected. Same goes for the small map.
These army numbers do not sit center of each army shadow.

If you zoom in on this at 400% in IE7, you'll see what i am talking about.

Mibi,,,i'd also like to ask if this map has been "colour tested" for the "new" army colours on the army shadows/shields/spots whatever that exist on the map. from the test image above, the dark blue digits in the gas chamber and the dark blue on the guerillas is pretty diffcult to see....i wouldn't like to see a repaeat of the colour issues you had with D:Day army circles....you know black spots on dark green etc etc. and then having to alter the map several weeks into play.
If you examined and perhaps changed those offending colours, and re-examined the sizes of the army shadows in one swoop i think might be prudent. Only a suggestion....!

One thing that bugs me is the Guards are called that with their bonus, and called alternately Wardens or Guards on all other special mechanics. Very confusing.

mibi...if you use Arial font size 14 with colour fill and black borders you should be able to simply type the numbers in a separate layer.
These are the army colours (from the xml tester page)
1. ff0000
2. 009a04
3. 0000ff
4. ffff00
5. ff00ff
6. 00ffff
7. ff9922
8. 7f7f7f
Hope this helps!
