The problem with CC2 and Autorealm is that they are essentially CAD programs. The great thing about CC2 and Autorealms is that they are essentially CAD programs...
Seriously, download the free instruction manual, read, and practice. If you spend an hour a day on it for one week, you will be able to make almost any type of map you want. The more you use it, the quicker you get at using it, and the more you find out about how to use it - with *any* CAD-based mapping program (or any powerful, versatile program for that matter), there are multiple ways of doing the same thing so you can discover the methods that you are most comfortable with (you could use absolute or relative coordinates, you could use polar or rectangular coordinates, you could draw a line multiple times, you could draw one line and copy it multiple times, you could draw one line and then create an array of them, etc.)
The only bad thing about CC2 or Autorealm is that they are slower to use than tile-based mapping programs, unless you get familiar enough with them to create your own macros or scripts.
While Dundjinni produces gorgeous maps, it just isn't as versatile as CC2.
If you are godd at drawing maps by hand and have a steady mouse grip, then you could always do them in Corel Draw, Paint Shop Pro, Photoshop, or other *drawing* programs.

Can anybody recomend me a good piece of map-Making Software that is easy to use? I just tried to use CC2 Pro, and I think that stuff leaking on the floor could be brainfluid...
Seriously though, I think the CC is just too complicated for me, I just wanna make some maps...
