i think its handy to have some raw sketches how the map will be going to be even if you aren't good in graphics i am sure you can make somethign, i think you get then more people who maybe want to do the graphics
but yeah everybody who is good in grpahics makes their own maps...

unit i will do your graphics as a side project but only if your next draft has:
a. terr boarders
b. Terr names
c. continents

EDIT: you need to start putting in full drafts for maps before you start topics about them or your jsut not going to get any feedback

yeah gimil somehow managed to corrupt the file. i think he got drunk and vomited on the pc and fried it.

Two things:
-I'd like to see some islands (inside the actual ocean). Just my opinion.
-Maybe China could be split up.
-I lied. Three. If you end up adding islands, maybe less of the northern lands (Asia & Middle East) should be shown.
