So I'm not actually around today until about 6 GMT, but I just wanted to make a quick announcement regarding how I think we can solve the lack of islands on the map.
We're going to be having a competition, open from Friday, where you guys can submit island chains to the cartography team, the 5 or the 10 we like best will go on the map and 3 we like most will get a prize. Dunno what it is yet, but you'll get a prize.
Now, some quick rules:
1. The Island Chains must be done in the style of the Political/Claims Map[/i], that'll make it easier for everybody and we can adapt it for the physical map. That means the sea/background has to be a dark blue with the HTML notation of 849bcb. The islands themselves should be drawn in with a 1 pixel wide pencil and brush tool, and coloured in with a grey/white with the HTML of cbcdd3.
2. Images should be larger than 400x400 but smaller than 1000x1000, and uploaded as a png to a stable image site like puush or imgur or similar to that. Not photobucket or imageshack
3. Contest will close at the end of February and entries must be PMed to me on the forum by then. There's no limit on the number of entries you can do but we expect quality work.
This is supposed to be a fun little thing that also helps us solve a map problem, so don't take it too seriously. Remember that having fun is the most important part of RPing, and this is no different. Enjoy yourselves.
