I gotta say I love this map, and I hope you do it!

I gave a little gasp when I saw Beroun on the map; so many happy memories of my childhood! I've never seen Beroun recognised as an objective on any map, in any game whatsoever, in all my many years of wargaming!

You really have to go ahead with it!

The one with the authentic map background is a nice idea, but really sloppy looking. If there was a way to clean it up, it would be nicer.

maybe I can reduce text on it. this should be a challenge for graphic masters, I will need any tips...

Is it obvious to everyone where the border between Czechia and Slovakia goes? Should there not be a delineated border between the two?

My biggest concern with this is, that you have again started from the small image. Since every map needs both a small & large image, it would be wisest for you to start from the large image, since it will be very difficult to create the large image from the small, but relatively simple to shrink the large to the small.

I think it would be best for you to switch to the large image now that you haven't put that much work into this image yet. It would mean redrawing your map, but trust me it's better to have to do it now rather than when you've put weeks of work in your current image.

The size difference between large & small should be at least 9% but 25% is recommended. 25% would make your large image 840 pixels wide, based on your current image.
