    just stick this on your open street map and you should be fine. I really think we're being a bit overcautious here.

    Is there anyway to make Open Street Map not have labels?

    I have yet to learn Inkscape or any vector based software either. My loss... Just removing labels in raster is making me lose the coastlines especially around the Gulf of Mexico. I guess i'll reconstruct the coastlines after removing the labels then. Thanks anyways Ravs!

    just trace it by hand, geamon....much faster! If you want to be really precise about it (and you have a scanner), print out the map at low opacity and trace the coastline with a black pen.....but the comp is much more about what you do with artistic feel from a basemap, don't get too hung up about accuracy.

    Are we allowed to use the raw XML data rather than a screen shot of a slippy map render? Are we restricted to using the same Spherical Mercator projection and fixed set of scale factors?

    I would imagine raw xml would serve the same purpose, as long as you can render a "before" shot. As to projection and scale, that's completely up to your base map. If you're rendering that base map yourself from data, pick whatever you like. The point is just to use *a* base map of some kind, then do something cool with it
