I've voted to start over, focussing on the central area of London that people know and visit...
...while we know that places like Hillingdon and Croydon are technically London, they aren't the places I think of when people say "I've been to London"...

The central London area is a good one and gets my vote. There's a lot you could do with that too.

yes, it leaves more options and i think would make the map brighter and more attractive with all the parks and things

Central London is far more interesting. The poll reflects this....
It's not half arsed, it'll make a better map.

As far as I can see you're the only 2 who think the whole would be better. I'm a Londoner and the central would be far more fun. The NYC map is amazing, I'd like something that can compare in quality to that, with local flavour. A map of the London boroughs could just be a generic small map of anywhere.

mmm...i spose things change, might start a new thread? i dunno,
ah well, i really dont mind what ever i do, i just find nothing special about doing a london boroughs - it would be a fun map but i think that other people would prefer central london,
maybe london could be a "sequil" if this one goes well?
i will make a draft now...

Awesome! Don't listen to the 2 doubters. 50% of the poll says go central, and I know it could be great!

Looks good to me. You could consider putting tube lines on it if you thought it'd work.
