Photoshop'd maps, etc.

we on the Daemonforge team are looking for people to draw some city maps for us for our upcoming .pdf file. If anyone is interested they can drop me a line at bd_92@yahoo.com. I'll give more deatils in there instead of posting on here. thanks!

I like your maps. I used to use Photoshop to make mine, as well. However, I got frustrated with it because I don't think it's very user-friendly. I switched to Paint Shop Pro.

As an example... (and, if this is bad message board etiquette, to post my own work on someone else's thread, I apologize and will remove it)... Here is what your Caranthil Map could look like in Paint Shop Pro using the "tubes" feature.

"Tubes" just uses a series of pre-loaded images that you can size however you like, and just paint them into your picture. It includes quite a few choices including the trees like I used above, leaves, flowers, spiders, rocks, etc. You can also make your own tubes very easily. For example, you could scan in 4 or 5 pictures of orcs in various poses, and paint yourself an orc army! It's just a very cool feature, IMHO.

Well, I didn't make it in Photoshop, but I used it to convert it into a JPG. That counts, right?

Here's one I did completely in Illustrator. I tried to use CC (came with Core Rules 2.0) but I couldn't get a decent grasp on the damn thing. Eventually, I just gave up and had to make my own, though it was a big influence. The original image is about 25 inches on the narrow end so that I could print it on a plotter. It printed out quite nice too, but my god did it take a while to print.
