I'm no cartographer, but it seems like your desert to the southeast is oddly placed - usually deserts are blocked off from the oceans by mountains, which block moist waters coming in off the oceans.  You also have a funny little place on the NE section of desert that goes up between a couple forests.  Seems to be saying that on that tiny strip of land, no flora will grow, but all around it, rich forests dwell.

How did you do the mountain textures, I would like to use something like that.

Quote from: PhoenixI've used bittorent to download the file, but I'm not sure how to open a file of that filetype (.panel.png).

Try opening it in paint (or photoshop) and see what happens.

Yeah, I tried Photoshop 6 and it said it wasn't a valid file type. Don't seem to have Paint on this computer (at least it's not listed under accessories where I thought Paint was located--not that it's something I use).

You don't have paint?  Seriously?  Are you running windows?

Poseidon, have you been working on your map any more?

I am not sure what to say except that they screwed up the file name change .panel.png to panel.png and accept the changes then try to open it up with photoshop.

A little, I've had a few more ideas on how to do some things and have been twiddling, unfortunately I can't share because people like to touch stuff (even though I say don't I'll fix it when I get home) and now the internet at home is out.
