While I think this is your best map so far, you really need to stick to one at a time.

Also, you really need to sort out your software situation. You're wasting your time with MS Paint. The fact you keep posting bitmaps doesn't help, they're so slow to load.

If it comes down to it and you can't do something about your image quality, ask for some help. There's plenty of talented map artists around here with the appropriate software.

What software do you use?

Photoshop. It's not perfect as it's not vector based which is probably best for the actual maps. I like it though, you can do pretty much anything with it.

My version was given to me as a gift, but you can download Gimp which is free and a very decent program similar to Photoshop.

Just a hint, use Photobucket for your images, and use [img] tags. Like this:

Code: Select all

 [img]http://www.freewebs.com/fight_knight/nigeria.bmp[/img] 

Would produce Image


Ok so that doesn't work, but if you use a normal photobucket or image shack, it works.
ImageChildren, this is what happens to hockey players, druggies, and Hillary Clinton.

Rope. Tree. Hillary. Some assembly required.

What's Nageria? Is that the land of the nags?

I always wondered where those bitches came from! :lol:
