Helloe fellow scribes

I've recently started using the free software called Map-Tool, which allows me to display the map and tokens on my large TV in my gaming room, while controlling hidden stuff of my laptop. Players share only a mouse to move their token directly on the screen. If you didn't know it existed, and if you have the possibility of such a setup, you should check it out at RPtool.com.

Anyway, one of the advantages of this software is I now I can display maps that are more interesting than simple lines hastily drawn on our gaming plastic map, such as pre-made maps. I know there are tons of maps on the web, but I'd like to know if there is a fast and convenient way to browse maps based on keywords other than a simple google search. I'm currently looking for a church map, something grim and sinister, with a back door access and a cellar. I'm not too picky, but I can't seem to find something that somewhat suits my current idea.

Have you checked DriveThruRPG.com? They're a big reason my gaming budget hasn't shrunk going from 3.5 to Pathfinder.

Playing in the Realms since the Old Grey Box (1987)... and *still* having fun with material published before 2008, despite the NDA'd lore.

If it's comparable in power with non-magical abilities, it's not magic.

The 'churches' from the Diablo CRPG series would fit the bill nicely if you find nothing better/more unique.
