    Praise Absolutely Awesome!

    This I absolutely awesome! I am astonished at finding this tutorial because I wanted you to make one and I even have your map set as my desktop as a perfect example of well crafted world map. To find this tutorial and see that care was taken with it, all I can say is thanks!

    Thank you for all your comments. I really hope this tutorial is a contribution that will help some folks.
    It's my first one though, so if you have any questions feel free to ask.
    I'll be away for a few weeks, but if I don't answer by Christmas, you can be pretty sure my plane crashed.

    I don't know much about Gimp, but from what I've read, the use of Layer Styles is a major difference. I used those extensively, so I hope you'll find a workaround.

    Thanks for giving it a try. To me it looks like you skipped some instructions, but I probably didn't explain them well enough.
    Maybe it's because I was using a mouse. Opacity settings are a different matter using a tablet, at least to me.

    Yes. You wanted me to make one. So if it's bad it's all your fault. :p
    Just kidding. Thanks for pushing me.

    Post it.

    If I'll ever do a tutorial again, I really want to know what worked and what didn't.

    It's in my thread in Regional And World Mapping. I'd love to get some feedback from you.

    Not sure what steps i might have skipped or misinterpreted, besides the river. you're right though, I find myself working with opacity/flow options more with the tablet in the last month or two than I ever have before. It's likely that a few of my typical habits made themselves known while I was working on a few things. That having been said - I learned a few new techniques to add to my methods, and in that respect your tutorial is 100% effective as a starting point for new ideas
    (and even if it won't let me rep you yet, I did get to rate the thread at least!)

    This site has a link to a plug-in for GIMP layer styles:
