Agreed, this is why I voted for #6 as well. Originality.Peter Gibbons wrote:Agreed here. I like both #6 and #2, but #6 wins out for me based on originality.
I will say this... if #2 wins, I hope that whomever did #6 tries to apply the same sort of style/scheme to a different geographic region in the world. It's a very attractive map and I hope to see it something like it on the site soon.

Re: [Official] Papua New Guinea Graphics Contest. VOTE NOW!
Wow this seems to be a reasonably close competition. Should the final result remain close I may have to run second round poll between our two front runners!
What do you know about map making, bitch?

Re: [Official] Papua New Guinea Graphics Contest. VOTE NOW!
As per DiM's request I have removed him from the final poll. Which means I can declare entry 6 by ndrs.
I shall PM him with the details of how to get his map running in the foundry.
Well done to ndrs.
