Yep. As well, here's the quick answer to a color exchange- there may be a more elegant way.

Under the image's main menu-
Select->None.
Under the toolbox-
Select Regions by Color (Shift-O)
Uncheck all boxs (Antialiasing, Feather Edgess, Select transparent, sample merged).
Set Threshold to zero (essential)
Click on a dot. Voila, you now have all instances of that precise color selected.

Select the Bucket Fill (Shift-B)
Defaults: Opacity (100), Mode Normal
Important: Select as the affected area "Fill whole selection" this way, you will replace all the dots at once.
Select BG color fill

Select yourself a color- I suggest setting the palette back to default with the mini palette right next to the big palette. The background white is 255 255 255.

Now click in one of those tiny little dots in your previous selection. Done.

/Lecture mode: off. Thinking: resumed.

Ah, here's the more elegant method.

EDIT:
I originally thought provinces like 274 & 285 were broken- but it turns out I couldn't see the bridges. As a temporary measure, I suggest doubling or tripling the width of those bright pink bridges. Someone probably has a bridge graphic around you can use.

Hi L.P.!

Thanks for the help with GIMP. How exciting that someone might be planning to play on the new map. Let me know if you find any faulty provinces. I tried pretty hard to do them right.

Province 274 is very isolated due to the river. I believe I made it a no-start province.

You can't see the pink bridges? Maybe you zoom out a lot farther than I usually do? I thought they popped right out due to the color. If you zoom in and follow the rivers, you can find them pretty quickly. Once you know where they are, they are easy to spot. Did you need me to make them thicker for your game?

Pasha
