    Honestly, this is a great map. The only thing I might tweak is the text (which you have already pointed out); I can read it just fine but it looks overly italicized, maybe that's just the way it is. The "terra incognita" probably needs to be bigger or more prominent somehow to make it stand out as a title so I'd move it to that lower right corner and make it bigger. Again, these are very minor...that delta is great, the colors are nice, and the symbols are easily seen. Good job.
    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

    Thank you all for the comments.

    Ascencion was right, the "italic" style was ticked for all the text labels, so I corrected them.

    I was trying to give a "streamy" look to the rivers in the montain by hitting the "fractalise" function, but then the whole river was affected. I corrected this by using the "split" function on the river when it goes out of the montains, and using "fractalise" on the upstream segment only.

    I tried to move and enlarge the scan... but I am still not happy with how it sticks out of the rest of the map. I would appreciate any suggestion about how to make it blend better.
