he probably just took a real world map or a map of the US, took his brush on 3px and went around the borders...than filled it with the brown colour and done...if you want to know more about photoshop or other problems we have a thread 'map making tools' and you can search for some photoshop tutorials along google...


Among a few various effects, and a 2 px brush, but yeah basically.

If I were going to forget a team they'd be the first I would.

Go Bucs.


Either way, my harddrive crashed, i'm hoping it's not crashed for good but if it is i'll have to start over so this might take a while to finish. I may have to restart after Christmas.

This would be the most kick arse map ever. You could make it that if you hold the four teams of a division you get +3 or whatever and to hold a conference would be huge. There is so much potential in this map idea. Someone please do it.

To Do List:

Finish rest of teams
Get some sort of background graphic to make the US and Canada less bland.


Maybe you could just get rid of Canada and Mexico, and change the USA's background into a football field. I like the design so far

I can not completely get rid of canada or mexico because southern florida and northern maine will always show some and it looks silly if I crop anymore. I do like the idea of making a football field the background.

Some notes, I intent to smooth out all of the light blue connections.


I'm aware some fonts are smaller than others.



continent colors were chosen by taking the colors of one team in the division.



I'm not sure how the east half the map will work out due to so many teams so close together.

how would all the teams be connected? By the lines shown or another way?
