    Good idea *votes yes*

    I draw my maps by hand mostly (just learning how to use PS CS5 for it) anyways, but maybe seeing others work could help me with my trees! xD

    I'd be up for this; it's been years since I've done a hand-drawn map.

    Shamelessly reviving this old post.
    I have seen alot of very impressive digital maps during the short time I have been a member.
    But I would love to see and learn from the veterans doing their magic with traditional pen and paper maps

    Eh, my only issue with this would be for those folks who don't have access to a quality scanner. We could certainly take pictures of the work, but sometimes quality photos are hard to achieve. Having it scanned would be okay, but some folks, depending on where they live, might encounter some cost (driving, scanning fees, and so on) that might pushed them away from participation. That being said, I still like the idea, so I'll vote 'Aye' on this even if I probably wouldn't participate given my work schedule and what not.

    I always hand draw my maps so I'm a little biased on this one.
