Picturs of future map:

[gimil]

the 1st thing i need to ask you.

Do you understand how to work the layer system ni photoshop?

[balvanboy]

Yes i know.

Picture over picture, transparent or fully color.

Do u think ps cs3 better for mapping?

[gimil]

i think it would but CS2 is also good

(havent got around to trying it)


The 1st thing you need to do is:

-Draw continent on a transparent layer(about 2-3 px brush will do it)
-Set a layer behind that and color in the contienets plus any dead territories (sea, other countries etc.)
-Now put in your terrirtry boarders with a smaller sized brush that your (1-2 px)
-After that put in territory names.
Once there done take a 22px brush, color black and set opacity to between 15-20 % opacity. Use this to insert army circles into each terriroty.

Once you do that unload and image and well take it from there

[balvanboy]

OK.

Now i'm i phase to give names teritorry, anybody have idea?

Znaci trebaju mi imena za drzave, i kako da ih podelim najbolje da sve bude proprcionalno.

"Balvane,Balvane,Balvane Moj napravi kartu i dobro je skroj"
Ima da nas ovi izvizde ali mora da ti napisem na naski,Kao prvo nemogu sve drzave da imaju isti broj teritorija,to otpisi,lepo sam ti poslao poruku kako da ih rasporedis,a imena teritorija mozes naci na wikipedii.
In English,look wikipedia and you will find all names what can you use for Balkan map.

QWERT:
Kao sto vidits suzio sam mapu na SFRJ. Ipak je bolje manji region.

[gimil]

its a good start but how did you end up with 6 layers?

army circles:
take a 22px circle brush. Set the brush opacity to around 12%

boards:
Use your origonal map as a template and jsut follow the boarder of them.

[Qwert]

If you change map name then you must put new Title,insted Balkan you must put SFRJ.
Neznam zasto ne pravis mapu balkana celoga?

[balvanboy]

Pa radim sam kao prvo/I work alone, just one helper for names.

Nisam hteo da se zalecem , mozda ne uspem ni ovo, ali sam se zagrejao:) Ipak SFRJ je manje podrucje.

Ako bi se jos neko pridruzio moglo bi se vise postici. Ovako necu da se forsiram.

He,ja sam poceo sa WWI EUrope,pa sam krenuo sa eastern front,pa iwo jima,pa pokusao i Acient Egypt,i jos dva pokusaja Market Garden i Ardenne Operation, i sad na kraju WWII Western front.
I ja sam to sve radio sam,tako da to nije neko opravdanje,jer i ja nigde nisam ucio kako se koristi PHOtoshop.
To se cini da je tesko ali da si uzeo kartu balkana recimo iz perioda pre 1990 imao bi jednu country sa 6 teritorija(SFRJ).
