    Wow. I have no idea about any of the techniques you're using but the results are nice. I did download QuantumGIS out of curiosity a month or so ago but I've not really looked at it at all yet.

    Glad you like it. There's a tutorial of sorts on QGIS in this thread here: http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...-for-using-GIS I still need to finish it, but it should get you started.

    And now for update number three: A start on grassland symbols, and mountains are now broken into three size classes based on their proximity to the edge of the mountainous region. Outer ones are small and closely spaced, inner ones are big and widely spaced. Getting the right parameters for that was a pain, but I think it's turned out quite nicely. Hopefully it will like even nicer when I make some proper symbols.

    So I have this really cool idea for how to do farmland using Voronoi diagrams:

    If I give each a negative buffer, and then apply a a randomly rotated parallel lines texture to each, I should have a rather nice effect overall.
