    Post Greetings!

    Hey Rusty, Welcome to the guild!

    You should try using GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) to make maps if you don't have Photoshop. GIMP is entirely free and you can make so many different mapping styles with it. If you make or install brushes, making a map in GIMP can be "easy" (easier and faster than not having brushes any way). There are also several downloadable scripts for GIMP.

    There are many tutorials on how to use GIMP on and off the guild. Two great GIMP tutorials are RobA's tut on "Using GIMP to Create an Artistic Regional RPG Map" or Gidde's tut on "Hand-Drawn Mapping (for the Artistically Challenged)".

    You can download GIMP here.

    Happy mapping,
    Gallifreyan

    p.s. Checkout the "Quickstart Guide to Fantasy Mapping"
