Default Re: Creating a fake map image file

Hmmmm I was working on a command-line to the fantastic ImageMagick tools to do that. Or maybe a ghost-script to GIMP.

The purpose was actually to turn a map into one with just borders and pixels that could be used as an online view to have the national colors automatically filled into the provinces to show game progression. But I can see a use here also.
