Is there a way to perhaps soften the rough edges of the borders? They seem jagged, and might look more professional if they are blended and smooth.
i think there should be like a box or somthing behind the key
Best key on the site. Simple. I like it.DublinDoogey wrote:Is there a way to perhaps soften the rough edges of the borders? They seem jagged, and might look more professional if they are blended and smooth.
1 pixel gausian blur, does the trick doesn't it?

A good suggestion, but I'd rather the legend be downplayed, so that it doesn't draw attention away from the map. I will, however, wait and see what other clubbers have to say on the maatter.
isn't French Canada a part of the whole country canada? if so shouldn't the one continent have a diff name then Canada? Like how you have Eastern USA, Central USA, and Western USA?

I agree.Jota wrote:I liked it better without the whirlpool. Also, maybe it's just an optical illusion, but it seems almost like it's more scrunched up than before... did you make the font smaller?
I think it might be helpful if you lined up all the continent names and all the values seperately.
