Well, here it is:

I've kept to the original board layout but given the thing a whole new look. Comments and suggestions?

PS BTW - do you still have the XML - or do I need to send it to you again?

No objections to the current design? Guess I'll get to work on the large version.

yeti_c, I've had an email address change and hdd format since I last had the file, needless to say I no longer have the XML. Any chance you could upload it somewhere and post the link in this thread?

Not a concern, but I just realized that the new image is a .png with transparent pixels (I guess you knew that, though). That's gonna look sweet in live play, especially with the drop shadow.

Welcome back KEYOGI will you be planing to stay around long?

As for the map i like hte black look. For the title im wondering if you would consider black letting with an inner bevel. See if you can make it looked engraved?
What do you know about map making, bitch?

I rather liked the "CC Star" being on the map somewhere...

Thanks for the feedback guys, here are some options based on your ideas:

'Justin Timberlake':
Image

'Bloody Mary':
Image

'World Domination':
Image

'Large':
Image


The new black look gets my vote, what does everyone else think? I tried the engraved title, but it didn't transfer so well with the black.

I've put the large in there for some early discussion, any opinions? I think maybe it's too big for this style of 'map'. How about something inbetween the current small and large?

I can't say, see how things go. I don't have time to get involved like before.

I prefer the black, and I propose that some sort of poll be set up.

Black has my vote for sure... And I'm curious as to why Keyogi left in the first place. I must have missed the drama?

I like the appearance of "Justin Timberlake," but I much prefer the title style of "Bloody Mary." I also like the tournament possibilities with a map of this style. Curse you mapmakers for giving me to many ideas! How am I going to have time to run them all?

:D:D:D:D

oh you jerk, keyogi. If you're going to be back, do westeros.

The green one is the best, anyway.

the black looks very well without my glasses but goes all fuzzy with my glasses on - so on that basis i would be very opposed to the black one
Don't now why people on here don't like being cooks, remember under siege: A former SEAL, now cook, is the only person who can stop a gang of terrorists when they sieze control of a US Navy battleship.

World Domination gets my vote. Anything with "Justin Timberlake" in it is gay. I vote AGAINST that one.

*Cough* Oh, excuse me...

Err, now that I'm here, where are we at with the image? Still pretty solid with the black one?
