    That map is incredible! I have map envy too. >_>

    BTW, I downloaded Bodoni for free from Urban Fonts.

    I think he may be referring to the actual postmark that's blended into the bakground texturing.. The one right under "The Great Ocean" label looks very much like a stamped postmark off an envelope
    (if i'm wrong, so be it, but it looks that way to me, heh)

    Wonderful work you have there. Can't wait for it to finish so i can snag it for my inspiration folder!

    Okay, found it.
    The background I used started from this:
    http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs41/f/20...tash_stock.jpg

    So yeah, the word "postmark" is on there. And also, a pennyfarthing velocipede. I think I'll leave it.

    I noticed a few of the mountain hatchures are pointed the wrong way - I'll get them fixed up later tonight and then I think I'll call this one done.

    Thanks all!

    Incredible thread necromancy here, but I have to know: Handsome Rob, did you create that forest pattern yourself and if so, would you be willing to share it for others to use? Or failing that, any tips on how to create something similar? I've been going nuts for the last few days trying to recreate it...
