    I'm glad that they helped. If you want to or are having trouble working with the your original robinson projection, you can convert your map to equirectangular using G. Projector and save it and use that instead. Just be sure to tick off the graticules before saving. I'd also recommend checking your map in orthographic every once in a while to make sure things are actually looking the way you want them to look.

    I'd definitely recommend converting your map into equirectangular oblique in order to work on the pole areas, 'cause that would help work your way around the polar distortion pretty easily. I think I've bookmarked the tutorial on that, so I'll edit this post with the link once I find it.

    Edit. Here's the link: https://cartographersguild.com/showt...l=1#post363382

    Thank you for all the advice. By opening my map in the equirectangular projection I finally got rid of a circle of blank space that kept on appearing on the top of my globe in the orthographic projection. Also, I tried opening my map in the equirectangular oblique but could not figure out how to reupload it into G. projector with the changes. I could not figure out how to set the center of the map as the pole.
