    Ooh! How did you do that?

    Also, I've tried out felimage. I use it a lot, but it doesn't threshold nicely, which rules it out for a lot of the mapping I do. But I haven't tried it for forests mapping. I'll look into it.

    Here we go, I fixed the rivers flowing uphill and widened them a bit (a little leery about how they look widened). I also did my best with the mountains and tried doing the forests using felimage. I really like the forests, though I might have bump-mapped them a little too enthusiastically, and the mountains are good, but I really need to learn, RobA, how you did that mountain fix. It's exactly what I want.

    Here is my 3rd draft

    -=EDIT=-

    Whoops! I just realized that I had the layers in the wrong order before I exported it, so the rivers can't be seen when they go through the forests. Try to pretend I didn't do that when you look at the map.

    I have to second that thought RobA.
