[MAP] Parganos remade !
Reworked the map to make it more colourful, added some marker for impassable borders (If someone comes up with a better one, I'll redo the map again. But I coudn't get the "usual" bigger line to work ok.)
Corrected the still missing "no starts" and changed some province terrain features that I didn't like.
If you like the map and no one finds an error, I'll submit it to Illwinter next weekend.

Re: [MAP] Parganos remade !
Wow... 8-) That is awesome! The detail is wonderful, the colors are great, the borders are not jumping at ones eyes but I found them easily enough... As I said, WOW!
You are right in that the impassable borders might bee too weak to be seen at glance when planning moves, but it looks so good I'm not complaining!  |

Re: [MAP] Parganos remade !
Im not sure about the program you are using but for impassable borders before dommap did it, this is what I was doing. I would disconnect the ends of the border and use the "edge" tool on that one border line. Or I would "lasso" the area to get a limit on its travel, then "edge" the border color. Sometimes "blur" that one piece of border looked good also.

Re: [MAP] Parganos remade !
What a great map!! I have "map making fever", and I am curious to know what sort of software programs you used to create and decorate the map. Any advice would be helpful (and thanks to Gandalf for advice given earlier). I am new to making maps on computers, but since 6th grade, I have loved to make up maps on paper (and I am now 30 years past 6th grade).
