wow. just wow.
you're american trying to do a map about washington state and yet you completely misspell everything on the map.
"whashingOton"
impassibles
"they" instead of "the"
"whight oad" this is a tricky one. i think it's supposed to be "white road"... but there's no white road on the map
PS: the map has potential since there are so many americans playing CC. the only problem is that you'll need to improve the graphics a lot.

I actually like the first one better. Your lines are really thick on this, they only need to be about 3 pixels max for width.

Maybe someone will revive the
Seattle map idea too, and then we'll really have a map of the area at every conceivable zoom level.

Is there really a need for a full on Washington state map? Tisha covered the most interesting area gameplay-wise when she made Puget Sound.

Those are just guides. It can't be larger than that. It can be 800 wide by 425 tall.

I was gonna comment on the state being too narrow but I see Tisha addressed it. However those new maps are projected funny as well. They appear to be a little elongated east-west than normal and the northern border is a flat horizontal line which isn't correct unless you're projected in Mercator or with some goofy world datum using decimal degrees.
I made this quick and dirty map of Washington using a State Plane 1983 Washington North coordinate system.

Can you see the difference?

it doesn't need fixed, it would be best to start over.
get the names correct also.
Correct the name of the thread Washington.

classic maps aren't bad per se, there's just a lot to choice from, but if you make a nice classic map, i'm sure it'll be played, however if you do add some gameplay elements like cities it'd be nice as well.
