Taking an aim to claim some fame. (Warning: large pictures included)

IDK if this qualifys for a "Professional SoD map in the style of the old cloth map", but here is my try. Constructive critic is appreciated.

Looks great! Here are my suggestions, all minor proofreading stuff, but I figured you'd appreciate them:

1> "Mistwood" should probably be "Mistwoods".
2> "Red Sun Mountains" should probably be "Red Sun Peaks".
3> "Elthanar" should probably be "Elthannar" (as used in "The Mansion of High King Elthanar").
4> "Elaels Tears" should probably be "Tears of Elael" or "The Tears of Elael", at least according to the Wiki or the Zone Status webpage.
5> "Prison of Admyrrxa" (I think that's what it is, it's hard to read the text against the forest) should be "Prison of Admrryza".

Also, how did you decide which dungeon-type zones to include? I see that Lasanth was represented, but I didn't see Sorcerer's Labyrinth, or even Dragon Necropolis. Just curious, that's all.

you might also reconsider dark purple letters over dark green map features

 

[Kasreyn]

is blackburrow completely missing? and misery?

oh wait there are many dungeons missing.

Nothing on the map is orange or pink; either of those colors could maybe be used for lettering. Sorta garish, but better visibility in most areas.

Oh =(

I want the old text back.... The new one is too bright, yellow and 1980s.. I dont like it =( I loved the old font, it was great =(

Pls change it back....

 

[Nwaij]

Font colors are a terrible thing, I hope the current incarnation is readable.

Nwaij, in my opinion you really stepped it up from your last version man, it looks great. Thanks for putting time into it.

 

[Nwaij]

I was made aware that I have the geography somewhat wrong, expect a new version in a few days.

EDIT: I lied, new version is allready done.

 

[Tesselajnen]

Love the font!

Ty for changing it back =P

No, that zones full name is Whisperling Forrest Gump. (fixed.)

IDK what program u are using, but I noticed that you have some words in black, some in white, some zones using black AND white.

I would suggest using white text outlined in black or black text outlined in white. This helps the text stick out better, and makes it easy to read on dark or light backgrounds.

Something like this:

the letters are easier to read than teh original marlboro ad:

Also this:

Did something about fonts.

EDIT: This had some unintentional sideeffects, stay tuned!
EDIT2: Sideeffects counteracted!

A+

Maybe instead of a giant white space for unknown Ikisith, you could put in dark clouds, or dragons with teeth, or bunnies.
