We made it to version 1.00!!!!!
Recent changes:
* Print as a poster or art print by easily sending your map image to the web based merchandise printer, Zazzle: Choose "File" and then "Print Poster/Art Print Using Web Service" on the map edit window. A prompt will appear to help you understand your map's print quality at different print sizes.
* Icosahedral map mask: Go to "Options" then check "Use Icosahedral Template" on the map edit window. This will fit a icosahedral map yemplate that will cover the hexes that aren't part of an icosahedral map. These maps give a truer perspective of a globe. The template attempts to best fit your maps area based on the chosen number of hexes wide and high. You can even print your icosahedral map, paste it on cardboard, cut it, fold it and create a d20 version of your world.
* 7 new star icons.
* Miscellaneous bug fixes

Here's a sample of the d20 world printed from an icosahedral template/mask:

(Note: I was just testing this so I didn't take the time to make sure all the half-hexes on the edges of the icosahedral map matched the terrain of their counterpart half-hexes. That's why you can see some edges where some hexes are half one terrain and half a different terrain type. I also wasn't using a completed sample map with rivers, roads, labels, etc. If you add those items, they'll be part of the output.)
