Re: The Balkan Peninsula [D] (v15 pg. 1&18) --Oct 31st--
I would be interested in seeing the colour blind test performed on the maps both before and after the yellow wash. I fear that the yellow may make things worse for the red-green challenged.
Re: The Balkan Peninsula [D] (v15 pg. 1&18) --Oct 31st--
Well, I wasn;t too keen on the yellow-wash all over, but have applied it selectively as a highlight...
I also worked out why the title/signature text seemed a bit muted and shuffled the order of various layers around...

Seems like we're ready to go here. My own tiny/minor nitpick is to add a mountain or 2 at the border of Thrace/Plovdiv/Burgas, or move the Thrace border to the south a few pixels. It's ok as is, but this will have better clarity for the area.

I'll tweak that border a little, and might write some XML now

While you are tweaking that border,could you do the same thing for the border between sredisnja hrvatska, republika srpska and fbih ?MrBenn wrote:I'll tweak that border a little, and might write some XML nowRedBaron0 wrote:My own tiny/minor nitpick is to add a mountain or 2 at the border of Thrace/Plovdiv/Burgas, or move the Thrace border to the south a few pixels.

This map looks amazing. I can't wait to play it.
Re: The Balkan Peninsula [D, GP] (pg. 1&19) --Nov 6th--
Thank you!
It shouldn't be too much longer to wait now. The XML has passed the checks - all I need to do is two small border tweaks and we should be ready to go play!

My friends and I will be ready to try this out once it hits Beta.
Re: The Balkan Peninsula [D, GP] (pg. 1&19) --Nov 6th--
I had nothing to do with the making of this map, yet I couldn't be happier to see this one coming to beta than if I had made the thing myself!

Re: The Balkan Peninsula [FF] --Dec 4th 2010--
There are a couple of small thing to fix, but the real problem is that the last time we (MrBenn & myself) had a chat, he was so much captured by the spirit of Christmas that he was spending all his free time trying to decorate the most beautiful Christmas tree I've ever seen....then or he has already come down from the tree or we will have to wait a little. 
p.s. Yes i know, X-mas makes me stupid
...or not?
