why is Detroit a country and so is Wisconsin? at least make it Milwaukee

by **happysadfun** on Mon Jan 01, 2007 1:35 am

Ok, can do. Should Florida be Atlanta or Miami?

And, i'll make the lines gradients, from one color to the other.

There's nothing wrong with the word Eskimo.

Eskimo Canada stays.

Don't worry Rueben. We all like you no matter how space-cadetted you are

I think this map is coming along, maybe for the founders I should use the star as the army shadow... opinions?

It looks ugly, every single color/border line you have there needs to go.

Also, I'd say use the colors I put on the one I recommended for you.

kill the pink dotts

by **edmundomcpot** on Mon Jan 01, 2007 4:16 pm

i cant work out which port attacks which

by **Lone.prophet** on Mon Jan 01, 2007 4:18 pm

well the red dotts and the pink dotts are useless,

Blue can attack blue green can attack green

by **happysadfun** on Mon Jan 01, 2007 4:36 pm

Let's use the example of Portugal. Portugal has red and blue dots. Therefore, Portugal may attack all ports in Canada and USA.

Puerto Rico has blue, green, and pink dots, meaning it can attack all ports in Canada, Western Europe, and Eastern Conference.

haven't read the whole thing but use innuit or however u spell it. eskimo is no longer used and is not 'PC'

by **happysadfun** on Mon Jan 01, 2007 8:28 pm

Looking at my posts, rants, and political alignment: Do you honestly think I care if it is PC? They don't mind.

i like the map alot really good job

by **reverend_kyle** on Tue Jan 02, 2007 2:14 am

the font is no good.

by **RuS** on Tue Jan 02, 2007 4:21 am

Oh please, you really think 'Brussels' is the country?
Brussels is the capital of BELGIUM, and you forgot the Netherlands, they're also a NATO member.

The word Eskimo is not offensive to the Eskimos.

Labels were too big to have both. So I merged them. Brussels is the HQ of Nato, so I figured instead of offending someone by naming the area "Netherlands" of "Belgium" I named it "Brussels." Do you have a problem with that?

by **happysadfun** on Tue Jan 02, 2007 7:21 pm

What font would you reccomend?

I'd recommend to use 'BENELUX' in that case, as it is the official name of the cooperation between BElgium, the NEtherlands and LUXembourg.
Cause maybe the dutch people may find it offending seeing there country under the Belgian capital

by **happysadfun** on Tue Jan 02, 2007 7:33 pm

Ok, let's all vote: Benelux or Belgium?

Benelux covers the whole area, while Brussels adds a nod to the fact that NATO is Headquartered in Brussels.

Palatino Linotype, or even comic sans.

by **AndyDufresne** on Tue Jan 02, 2007 7:44 pm

'Script' fonts, won't ever be very good, due to lack of clarity.

Regarding the country names...keep consistency. If you switch out brussels, get rid of Detroit, as it is a city also. Or if you keep the cities, might remove the state/area names.
