    well- here's a slice (I have no idea what constitutes NY so I just centered on manhattan) unfortunatly it has names on it. Tried to fetch an svg version, but that didn't work when I downloaded it.

    Good resource Ravells - thanks.

    I've also updated the first post with some banners that can be used to publicise the show. You should see them appearing around the web in the coming days. This is a great opportunity to give the Guild some publicity - so post this around on other art sites you frequent.

    Those banners are great. Snagged them for my site (which is beginning to get some decent traffic). I also "tweeted" (to my 0 followers on Twitter) and posted a discussion (on my little-visited Facebook page). LOL. I'm going to promote this a lot...to not many people!

    nice pdf... to bad it isn't layered so one could turn off the names - that would be perfect

    When I import the pdf into Serif Drawplus, it's all on one layer (pity) but you can identify the text objects.
