Hi

Welcome! Yeah, 23 Mb will fail - the board has an upload limit of 4mb/file.

Nice looking start on the map, though it has a bit much of the "fill a rectangle" look to it. Does it please YOU? That's the main criterion for success.

Thanks for the welcome everyone!

Good to know, thanks for that.

Thanks for checking it out! I agree with the rectangular look comment. I think that may be because of the islands in the top left corner. I would have preferred to place them a lot further out than the main continents but it would have created a lot of unnecessary space on the map (akin to if you decided to include the Pacific Ocean in a map of the United States so you could include Hawaii), so I just moved them there. The shape of the continents themselves seem oddly rectangular too - definitely something I hadn't really noticed until you pointed it out.

In comparison to my previous maps, this one is a lot less rectangular and it looks a lot more professional (compared to my old ones, anyway), so I'm satisfied with it. There are a ton of things I wish to improve on though. Thanks for your criticism :)
