Tsk tsk... you forgot to unsticky. :p

I have no idea what you're talking about natty, this whole "not unstickied" hogwash is just going to get you in trouble.

natty, you're getting just as bad as Sully. It's not stickied!!

I have screenshots to prove it.

Pics or it didn't happen!!

It wouldn't let me unsticky it. I'm just a lowly FA. I don't even have a title under my avatar.

(hangs head, kicks can down the alley)

You'll need to make the graphic significantly different from my contest entry, please; especially as I have a further work-in-progress in development

Excuse me... did you get the copyright on the colour green when I wasn't looking?

Ah, f*ck it. Bin this.

As requested [moved] to the bin

Well, this is a shame... You should have come in earlier, MrBenn...

Btw... Move please.

Haters be hatin'.

Jack Daniels SAWCE!

Nice to see this back in action.

Hi natty,

This has a much more 'British' feel to it now. A few graphical points while you wait on getting this moved by those that run the drafting room.

The British flag contrasts with the Big Ben watermark. I would suggest making the flag similar in tone and transparency to big ben for graphical consistency. You know what I mean?

Also the bonus legends could probably be moved to the bottom right corner to utalise the dead space in that area, also the legends could probably be colour coded with the map for ease of reference (and so they look prettier).

Finally I ain't digging the Font choice for the title. With the semi-British theme you have going on I think a hand writing font would fit the theme much better, perhaps 'Monotype Corsiva'. Let me know what you think.

Nice work,
gimil

p.s. if you are up for downloading font this look like a winner for your map.

This map looks great so far!

New update, moved again!! Can you please update the OP with all of the maps relative information please.

natty_dread, nice to see you bring this one back to life. I really like the new colour scheme, getting away from the green was a great idea but South east and North Central look very similar.
North Central, can you rename it just North. Central is not used.
Why Big Ben for the background, I have no problem with it but a lot of people will just ask, so I might as well be first.
Gimil said it, but the title font looks really bad (like something a dog with a bad tummy would do).

Very nice work natty, as usual.

I agree with Koontz, the SE and N do look similar, especially Haringey and Camden. They look very much like the SE, and event different than Barnet and Enfield.

Big Ben, is London's most prominent and well known landmark.

That is debatable.

But as I said, it is natty's choice but like all maps with these landmarks on, people will say why that one.

How is that debatable?

Simple, when I think of London, I think of many many things, Big Ben is only one of them, but I am not the right person to ask as I am to close to my home city. As an exercise, I will ask my kids at school tomorrow and see what they come up with.
