Welcome!
The Cartographers’ Guild is a forum created by and for map makers and aficionados, a place where every aspect of cartography can be admired, examined, learned, and discussed. Our membership consists of professional designers and artists, hobbyists, and amateurs—all are welcome to join and participate in the quest for cartographic skill and knowledge.
Although we specialize in maps of fictional realms, as commonly used in both novels and games (both tabletop and role-playing), many Guild members are also proficient in historical and contemporary maps. Likewise, we specialize in computer-assisted cartography (such as with GIMP, Adobe apps, Campaign Cartographer, Dundjinni, etc.), although many members here also have interest in maps drafted by hand.

You aren't the only old timer around here. I think you will enjoy the company. We have many rpg'ers who remember the olden days. There are also some here who just love making maps and don't know much about rpgs. The common denominator though is enjoyment of maps. Crush those tutorials we can't wait to see your efforts and if you share your WIP you will find good helpful tips until you master those imaginary empires.
