Hello gmtx725!
I like the first map, especially, but was thrown by the "land is lighter" convention you used. Once I realized that the whole thing made sense. (Kind of like looking at those vase/two face pictures. My brain kept bouncing between the two...)

Heh... ditto. I like the maps also, but like Rob, my first thought was... "hmmm.. why did he put mountains in his ocean?" And then it hit me that you have the colors opposite of what my expectations were.Originally Posted by RobA

Welcome to the Guild gmtx725! For those that mentioned the reversing effect of the colors, there is an interestingly easy solution to that. If you flip the map so the land is at the top, the colors suddenly work. It has to do with a subconscious analogy that the brain makes. The land is "above" the water.
