    I actually remember AutoRealm from a while back. It appears I even have a link to it... I never did anything with it though as at the time I didn't find it particularly good, but I think it may be time to give it another serious consideration. Thanks! Repped!

    I felt the same way back then and still do now... it is a clunky interface at best and after playing with it some more last night, I feel it is good for little more than making nice fractal outlines. The symbol library is also useful though and for those two functions alone, I think I'll be making a bit of use out of it.

    For the record... i closed out of the program ranting and cursing it after trying some of the other drawing functions out... stick to fractals and just copy the outline into Gimp with a screenie.

    ((Not sure if Gimp does paths but, saving the outline as a Shape would be ideal))

    I believe Dungeoncrafter 3 by Shard Games is freeware - has four layers only, and is a tile-mapper like Dundjinni, mostly for dungeons and simple structures.

    I've never used it or downloaded, but I know it exists!

    I tried it and like Inkscape much better for generating paths... And gimp will quite happily import the svg paths that Inkscape saves...
