So... here's the backhistory I've finished. Not complete, but a good start.
I might add maps later, but I'll probably change Kael's first.
I, erm, kinda... "borrowed" it from Ebberon

Yes, well, given the number of ideas I've gotten from this site, I might as well share what I've done thus far.

There's not much to say, it all seems fairly complete. I might suggest, though, you include a map. I got terribly confused trying to keep it all straight.

Yes, as soon as I fire up my laptop again I will load up the continent maps.
I do not as yet have a digital world map constructed, as I simply tweaked the size ratios of each map, then traced the outlines onto a 11x17 sheet of graph paper, so I will try to work on that.
BTW, if anyone knows how to get an 11x17 scanned piecemeal I can start with the few complete city maps (and world map) that I have finished.

Best way to scan something that size is with overlapping sections. Then you take the sections into Photoshop or paint shop pro and put them together. Crop the edges a touch.

Hm, okay, I'll give it a shot. Don't exactly have a great scanner, and no photoshop (just the basic paintshop, and some wierd Elements thing that I guess is some mutant photoshop).

I have photoshop, and I work at a graphic design company. I can give it a shot if you send me the sections via the_blacxthorne777@yahoo.com.

I just might take you up on that; the smaller maps, however, I managed to figure out (with a little help).
So... I'm going to start posting the continent maps.
They may be a little fuzzy, as I had to scan them in (couldn't change the ones I'd already done to include the national boundries... argh!).

Hmm, I seem to have run out of space to attach stuff on...
Uh... I guess if you want to see the other four continents you'll have to PM me for them, or ask me to email them to you.

I like what I have read so far.
btw, cool maps too. You might try adding them to the document so they come with the download.

Unfortunately, each picture runs from 500-1000 kb, and I don't have any means to compress a .doc enough to make it possible.
Though I would if I could.

K, well, I sent the pictures to blacxthornE (thanks again, by the way), so... I guess pdf sometime soon will be available (I might delete the post with the two other maps to make room, as those things are chewing up my attachment space).
I really, really should look at setting up a website to hold these bloody things. Gyah. Too much to learn over the summer, between job and trying to finish campaign and novel.

Try www.50megs.com or www.lycos.com for a server. They're free and the ads are only mildly irritating. If you need it, I can have a simple site done in under an hour.

Thanks for the offer, but it's something I'd like to learn for myself. Since I switched my major, this spring I'll be taking actual course(s) in web development, as it would be partially required to graduate as a TechComm major.
