I will try to make it short. Hello, I'm Merl and I don't have much time (later I may make a proper introduction). I wanted to say how great this site is. great works, great tutorials.

I'm in desperate need of help concerning mapmaking: I have to make this world. We have the continents and countries already set, but they are terribly displaced (a desert land is on top, moreso close to a polar region). I don't have any maps right now (they on another PC), and got no good results at the search function. I'd like to ask if anyone knows good articles, tutorials or any valuable advice for defining the positions of continents while keeping a certain degree of realism.
