Most of the things I end up with in the GIMP are through trial and error. And a lot of just goofing around. The cliffs turned out better than I expected....just glad for the "undo" palette that let me go back and see how I had done it

Exactly what I was going to say.
I think we are nearly finished.
So, does anybody else want I change something ? (I'm not sure of this sentence ... ^^)

The forests are great!
You might want to consider putting a bit more blur between some of your transitions from grass to dirt, especially the one in the top center. There is a lot of spread there.
Also, consider adding a high cloud bump map to parts (just perhaps random selections instead of the whole thing) of the dirt layer(or a copy) with very low depth and fairly high elevation. Just enough to get a little rolling hills going on and then blend this in with spread/blur.
These two things are not 100% necessary as it's a very nice as it is, but I would probably try to see if I could get a bit more terrain variation.

Ok, thanks for the help.
This is the new version, following your instructions.
The hills noise is plasma and the bump is duplicated four times.
