PNG's compression ratios are comparable to jpeg, but it's lossless, so you don't have artifacts or color banding. I'm not 100% clear on how png compression works--I guess I should do some research on that.

Late welcome
Welcome in our little sect, sorry I mean humble guild of mapper enthusiast, hope to see stuff from u and all the other recent new guys since the beginning of 2008 that I miss (most of u all actually).
It's always fun to get new acolyte from all around the world, with their own background and mapping style.
Sea U A-Round,
Alu.
Let my fangs find your neck, during the night, so that I can drink your knowledge ...
So it could be use here : www.l-hazard.com
PNG is fine - you can get a pretty big map up, even given the file limit.
And welcome to the Guild! Hope you enjoy your stay!

I somehow missed this post, as Rob said, welcome to the Guild, Del, and thank you for your kind words - which we will quoting in a flyer we are producing to hand out at conventions (so we can't continue to be accused of keeping this place to ourselves!).

I'll take whatever publicity I can get... or the site can get
As far as keeping this place to ourselves, there are some of us around here who are trying to get the word out. Take a look at the second rpgnow.com link in my signature or the rpgnow.com link in terrainmonkey's signature. We are but two men trying to spread the word. . .
...aye and you shall be rewarded with much fantasy gold and reputation for valorous conduct in the field!
When I click the link for the Fantasy Cartographic Home Page on RPGNow's page (Under publisher INfo) it comes up with unavailable website
