Ok, I might be calling this one done for the near term. Thanks everyone for the feedback. It is much appreciated....



(KM, I haven't decided on how to handle the Plateau situation, but I think it represents what is discussed in the book, I will pick it up again later.

Hey Joshua,

Huuzah! A map and "Job" well done! Thank you for sharing it with us! (and I hope you'll do more of the Malazan world...he said, very not self servingly... )

And yes, I do visit the Malazan Forum from time to time. I was a regular years and years back. We moved forum at least twice that i can remember (but probably more ^^ ). Nowadays I don't have as much freetime as I used to (but I am sure everyone knows how that goes) and I don't know the current regulars anymore (well one or two that are still around...ah, I'm getting nostalgic ^^ ) so i somehow feel....out of place *shrugs*
Are you regularly posting over there?

Thanks Eliathan! I'm not sure which one to do next... might take a break for a couple weeks. On the Malazan forum, I just posted this map work to ask some questions.

Now I'm deciding on two formats for the info box. Which one do you like? See below.

Last thing, I'm choosing between these two info box designs. I think I prefer Option B. Can anyone provide a preference.

Option A: I'm not so sure about the placement of the globe at the bottom of the info box.



Option B



Thanks

For my money, option A, hands down. Having the red area be larger due to the title being inside it makes the whole thing look a lot more compact. I also like how the globe breaks the shape, it immediately makes the box look more interesting when it's not just a rectangle. The addition of the date before the title is also a nice touch.
