    Limburrow... is that a reference to Limburg?

    Like the map so far, but the size is a bit of a shame. Is this the original size or are you working on a bigger version?
    The compass looks great by the way!

    Yeah, this is the original size. Like I said in my original post, I just wanted to make something. I didn't necessarily think things through beforehand.

    I had a friend help me coming up with names, and she suggested "Limburgh, as in Edinburgh," which I decided to change to Limburrow because it was so close to Limburg already.
    Alas, my website features music, not maps. I do have a portfolio of some other things, though.

    I really like what you have done with this map. Its fun, easily legible, and with the new additions that you have made with names, and sea/land routes, it really becomes a very usable peice of artwork.

    I would love to get a tutorial on sea lanes (and roads) since I have a devil of a time doing them

    Nice nice work

    AslanC: I put together a tutorial explaining how I made the sea lanes, intending to make it a PDF or at least a DOC file, but things wouldn't work the way I wanted them to, so I just made it a web tutorial instead. Hope you find it useful!

    töff: I'm very sorry. Thanks!

    I've also found that in doing sea-lanes and roads in my map, it's not even always necessary to use paths for the routes. In some cases in my map, I found it was actually more trouble than it was worth, surprisingly.

    A steady hand and liberal use of the undo button and/or an eraser can be sufficient with practice, even on a mouse.

    Great tutorial, though! Repped!
