this map is tropical.. i think a light army circle like off white with some transparency would fit better. the grey just seems kinda drab.

How's that now Mibi?

I want to help center that so bad, but as a jpeg it is just impossible to see up close. My eyes about died.

mibi · Post by **mibi** » Fri Apr 13, 2007 9:19 pm

looks better... could even go whiter .. but thats just my opinion

Which ones need centering Coleman?

Coleman · Post by **Coleman** » Fri Apr 13, 2007 9:30 pm

The Lakes and Kairi for sure but I tried to zoom in so I could see each pixel and say how they need to be moved and the jpeg compression makes the circle edges hard/impossible to define.

If its any help, the circles are 23w x 23h

Is the colour OK?

DiM...no wonder you've got black circles on your eyes....i'llagree that some need centering, but not all, as I spent over an hour going through this process this morning.
I think your maybe just tired.

Well, its 13:00hr local time here, the sun is shining gloriously after an early morning shower, it is autumn although you only know this by the cooler weather coming in, and there is a light beach sea breeze blowing from the beach which is only 200 years down ther street. I'm having pink salmon and salad of lettuce, shallots, cheese, beetroot, cherry tomatoes for lunch. Yummm! And I will finish lunch with frozen tropical fruit.
On the map, i live just over that bridge from cairns on palm cove territory.

looks great. i had thought maybe the numbers would dress the grey up, but the transparent ones look a ton better.
almost all the numbers look like they need better centering to me, so i wont name them.

man i like this map.

Enigma...if i could i send all the tropics through the computer screens so could experience the flavours and colours...thanks for your thoughts.
I am going through re-working (yet againt) the shadows, seems as though I might need to make them 24px to get them to centre properly. Watch the Tropics!

Perfectly centred I believe $\:D/$

cairnswk · Post by **cairnswk** » Sat Apr 14, 2007 7:39 am

Are both of these OK?

onbekende · Post by **onbekende** » Sat Apr 14, 2007 9:46 am

I see no problem

DiM · Post by **DiM** » Sat Apr 14, 2007 9:58 am

put topaz and mareeba numbers a bit to the left in the large version

mibi · Post by **mibi** » Sat Apr 14, 2007 10:43 am

um... the tree in banaland has no bananas on it. this map wont see any play like that.

I agree with this, even if it makes them look off center the other way it would look better with the way you handled it on the rest of the map.
