Very nice, Cleric! I can't wait to look them over in detail a little more.  Thank you for your hard work on these maps.  |

I personally don't have PhotoShop or any of the other fine programs out there, and I'm lucky if I can even draw a stick figure properly in real life.  Things like that always impress me, and I wish I had some computer art skill.
By the way, my NG fey'ri bladesinger Telethian is very glad to see that Lothen has a city marking rather than a ruins marking. He and his party, along with several others in my campaign decided to reclaim Lothen of the Silver Spires, and Telethian's the head of the city now. Born and raised there over five thousand years ago, and then having to go in and clean the city of orc filth, then open the city to all races. Man, that was an incredible few set of weeks (in real time, LOL), believe me! |

Good stuff. In my game, after the Spellplague an Elven crusade started in Evermeet to reclaim some of their long lost territory, thus the Aryvandaar, Siluvenede, Sharrven, Miyeritar and Eaerlann labels. A lot of the old elven cities are still adventure rich war zones as opposed anywhere you'd want to drop your guard just yet.
As for image manipulation... You used to be able to download a free trial of photoshop but I can't find it any more. However, GIMP is a free, open source equivalent and it has tonnes of really good wiki based tutorials. |

| Oh yes, I've heard of that program, as a dear friend of mine uses it for her photo editing and wallpaper work. Thank you! |

"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

MY ENCANTATIONS WORKED!
HE HATH RETURNED!!!
Seriously, cheers. I think I just used the 'cross-hatch' brush filter and turned up the contrast and darkness a bit.
EDIT: you do realise that, now we all know you're still alive, you're going to be bombarded with demands for an update on your realms atlas project, right? |
