I've reinstalled Win7 and took a subscription to Photoshop CC 2014. I have also updated my map and changed the island chains. Now I don't know how useful this is but I got the idea of using colours to indicate the pressure level spreading rate of each continental plate. Here's the result;
After the plates have their direction arrows I will mark areas with earthquakes, volcanoes and sea trenches.
Edit;
After looking at this map I will be replacing "pressure" with "spreading rate" at the Tectonic legend.
Oh and for those who care I found this interesting webpage on tectonics.

Another status update, I am closing the tectonic chapter, unless anyone posts feedback that warrants corrections to be made, and moving on to what might be the trickiest bit, climates. Now I don't think my world will require a very detailed and scientific correct climate maps but I am curious how detailed I can make it. As it is now I will leave the landforms, mountains and tectonics as they are, excluding possible adjustments based on feedback. Which I highly welcome.

Oh wow! Very interesting project, I'm really looking forward to see how you do climate.
