Some final fiddling about. Must check out the Donjon Name Builder

The DonJon Name Builder was the best one I've encountered.

Here are the Donjon Tools

I tend to use the Fantasy Name Generator, it has a LOT of nice features for random generation.

Very nice Ravs!
Though the font you used in the grey callout boxes is a bit hard to read (at least for me).

I really like the clean look of the map, very nice. May I ask what vector program you are using for this?
Cheers SG and Candacis...the font I used was Firenze, I was bit worried about legibility at that size, thanks for confirming my worry. I'll change it. Cndacis vector program I use is Serif Drawplus X4. The original map was done in FT pro which I imported into Serif as a jpg and autotraced.
Thanks for the info ^^ Didn't know the program. Would love to see a tutorial for this map style some day.
This is really great Ravs. This is why I didn't enter this challenge this month. I didn't want to make an image I wanted to make a map. Yours is perfect.![]()

Even if I am correct, I would still advise you to follow your heart. This whole Cartographers Guild thing, it seems to me, is more about passion and skill and learning new techniques than it is about definitions and rules.

Wonderful map, Ravs.I'll really have to have a crack at getting to grips with a vector program some day, the output can really be stunning.
I have to agree with SG though on the font in the boxes. Legibility is down and it just doesn't seem to fit the map.
Royal: I'm very sorry for your loss, your mother was a terribly attractive woman.

Cheers Ramah...I've changed the font from Firenze to Caspar.
@JT - you are producing some really good stuff, you should enter the challenges.
@Cantacis - no tutorial required, it's really as easy as making a random map with FT pro, autotracing it and then sticking the labels on top and doing the coast outline.
Thanks for all the compliments, I like the clean style of this one.
