    These maps are beautiful! I love the way the grassy bits go up the slopes and thanks for the explanation of how you did them (on your page at deviant). How long does it take to make a map?

    Take a look at RobA's Tutorial 'How to generate a not so random coastline in Gimp' - that will save you from having to make the initial coastline in the FT demo and stitch them together in PS as you'll be able to do the whole process in PS and have more control over the shape of your continents / islands.
