I would like to add a border, but I may not have time before the contest runs out. I may fiddle more with the color, though some of the editable files I was using before were lost, and that particular bit of text is a static pasted image, not currently a text file I can change. I can probably paint over the red, though. For the rest of the labels I think I will switch to a more readable, if less exciting font.

I may also reduce the size of the compass, as it currently takes up a lot of room and kind of draws the eye away from the rest of the map.
