I personally think it's a bit of a step back.
The mountains the first time were lovely. Now they're tiny and insignificant. The lake edges are also blurry which looks odd compared to clear-cut coastlines. The terrain colours are nice, but it could use a bit more of a change-up with the textures, especially on the northern landmass.

Ok, thanks, i was thinking I'd made them too large the first time for a continent sized map, i can mess with that easily enough, the original generation of them was done in a separate Gimp document at 1024 X 1024 and pasted into the map as a layer. big as ya want 'em that way. As far as blurriness? perhaps that comes from scaling down too far.. Although i did blur randomly over the generated terrain thinking a high level of detail shouldn't show over a large landmass. All that is changeable. I'll post some other ideas for critique.

This has the grid and a simple north arrow added for now plus another mountain and a bit of an attempt to break up the northern landmass a bit, there'll be more mountains and water before it's done but non of the mountains will be appreciably bigger Although i see the point about the first version's mountains, they popped more cause they weren't shaded with the landmass and i'd blended about the same size mountain using more tans and browns. Last one before i finish it and I'm personally satisfied,, btw found the post about Deep Zoom Explorer, way cool, might do a whole world, if it takes me a week or slightly less for one quadrant I'll have a nice world map in quick order.
