    Default Golarion, the Pathfinder world

    Hi all,

    I wanted to post my WIP on Golarion the official Pathfinder world. This is the Norther part. Also I added a large island (Centaur Isle) so I will not infringe on Copyrights.

    IMAGE DELETED! (by me)

    I really dig that compass rose Madcartographer! Look forward to seeing what you've got lined up for the map.

    Cheers,

    Looking forward to seeing more...especially if you go beyond the parts they've already mapped.

    IANAL but I don't think the addition of an island while you keep everything else will prevent you from infringing. Just using their placenames (such as Golarion) without permission is infringement, I believe. However, you should read Paizo's Pathfinder community use policy. I believe that you are free to make all of the maps you want if you follow that policy...though I am unsure of the details so you should read it carefully yourself.

    Cheers.

    A very naive notion of copyrights. You copy their work or derive from their work without permission, and you infringe. Simple as that.

    (I am not a lawyer, for legal advice ask yours.)

    Ok, after reading the "Community Use info... I cant do "That" map... so, I'll delete it and post the map I can make in CC3, along with all the required "text". This thread wont be updated with any pics, but give me a few days and I'll post another with all the requirements.

    Thanks for the info guys.

    I'm curious what it said. I have not read it but will someday. Care to summarize your interpretation in the meantime?

    Edit: Actually, just took a bit to read it. Looks as if the only issue you have is that you need to add their disclaimer text to the map somewhere? Or did I misinterpret it?
