I like that background. It's looks vaguely like a whirling gale.

Like the layout on the 2nd version of the plasma-fied map very much, though for my taste I'd have gone a bit lighter overall (it's probably my eyes). Looking forward to seeing how this goes...

I don't know what happened...but I think my super admin powers messed up the thread title...and I can't remember what it was supposed to be...could you either edit it back yourself or tell me what it should be so I can fix it?
Edit: Nevermind...I found it in the still cached RSS feed....byawwww!!!!

Errrr. I thought I posted this last night, but I guess I forgot to hit the actual button. That's what happens when you try to work with the intertubes after an exhausting day of filling my face at a birthday brunch followed up with running a 5 hour D&D game where I as the DM am pretty much pulling stuff out of my behind.
Anyhow, in my mind, this map would be used for a online PbP or PbE game, which is why it's got the grid and the colors are more "saturated" than they would be if I were to print it. The nice thing about using Illustrator is that it's pretty easy to change a lot of the fiddly details once the map's done.

Interesting you should say that. The base for the sea (and land) shading is actually two different plasma maps. One I got from a java applet I found in the intertubes. The other is actually a photo I took of some storm clouds here in Seattle a few weeks back. When I realized I needed two plasma fractals to get the look I wanted, it also occurred to me that the picture on my desktop (of the underbelly of the storm) looked exactly like a plasma fractal.
So, that you think it reminds you of a whirling gale is kinda cool.
That's awesome! I have something similar pasted to the front of my fridge door.Sorry.....couldn't resist!!!
He lies. He could have resisted he just wanted to get in on the merry making.
Hehehe, made me smile.
Bill Stickers is innocent! It isn't Bill's fault that he was hanging out in the wrong place.
