Well, With NEAR getting closer and closer to its Re-Grand opening, I find myself unable to maintain or build a map worthy of her greatness. So! With this in mind NEAR needs a Cartographer! someone who is familiar with common everyday image editors who would be willing to remain regular with updates with the map such as: Updated spheres of Influence, New members, and ETC... If your interested in the position and can meet the demands it holds please make your position known here! |

I can't be a daily cartographer, however if I could get my hands on a decent galaxy image I think I could hash-up a starting map using GIMP. |

Sounds good to me... A Cartographer needs to only get a weekly Map at best... and thats only if the map changes during that time. If nothing changes... it'll be an easy week

Ok I just need some parameters before I make the starting map. 1) What kind of grid system do you want? 2) Do you have a galaxy picture that you want to be used in particular? |

Now before I continue to make the legend area of the map I would first like to post what I have whipped up so far. EDIT3: Image deleted, see post below. Likey? EDIT: Please note I'm still working on the transparency of the hex-grid. EDIT2: Made a slightly refined pic. Edited by Terraburg, Nov 15 2013, 07:17 AM.
