    Hey, I think I recognize that style
    Very nice job! Have some reputation. Are you done with it or still working on it?

    Thanks Gandwarf
    Nah Think I'm still working on it. Think I'll name some more of the ocean features (Bays, Gulfs, etc) and possibly add towns. Maybe other things as well

    I see no rivers by the way? Although, looking very closely I see a few small lines that might be them. I can understand that at this height they should almost be invisible

    Very nice. Have some rep.

    The only thing I'd nitpick about here is that the names in the water are a bit hard to read. Maybe if you did something to contrast them a bit.

    All in all though, very well done!

    There are rivers (Which are a bit more visible at full view), but the borders end up covering a bit of them.

    @Gidde
    Thanks
    Sure, that can be done. I just lowered the fill of the white so that they weren't as distracting. I'll just up the fill some

    I like that ocean, very subtle color gradations. Good stuff.

    I really like this map. I only I think I would like it even more if the mountains were more detailed or more defined in the world, instead of vague white and brown rough spots on the land... but maybe that is because of the style and you are staying loyal to it.
