Any suggestions??... any paint programs which may have sample pictures I can use??
Even the free program with Windows can be used. Get Irfanview or some other program that can take images in/out of the TGA format.

GIMP is a free paint program but more powerful than most people can get used to (kindof like Dominions). The Devs use it and the iconic images (trees mountains etc) are easier to get from them for use in gimp. It also can generate beautiful random maps if you want to go thru the work of adding provinces and such to it.

If any of the random maps from my site catch your eye be sure to download the zip. A fresh 30 are made every day so the one that sparks a thought like "that sea looks like a dragon" will be gone tomorrow.
