I don't drink coffee.  Or any form of caffeine, for that matter, save what can be found in hot chocolate.  :D

Changes order to 64 oz. triple sized hot chocolate with whipped cream from godiva specifically to be delivered hot to Prisc's door.

Isn't he getting close to his deadline for "Changes"?

You're a funny one. Jim laughs at deadlines.

... well, it's nervous and slightly hysterical laughter, but laughter nonetheless. :D

Well, if you couldn't do that with your bulls***, Leonard, I suspect the lad's impervious.

Seems to me I recall him saying something along those lines in an interview or such.

All I know as a beta is that the man's a frickin' writing machine when deadlines are trying to jump on his head.

No kidding.  Man wrote 3/4 of "Turn Coat" in a month and a half.

I expect I missed it somewhere in the 42 pages of posts, but what program did you use to make the maps?

I use a combination of Adobe Photoshop, Corel Painter, Google Earth, and the Mac grab application. And of course use my wacom tablet.
Actually, this is the second incarnation of the map thread. The first incarnation got so large that it became unmanageable.

Tsu uses a different Windows based program for his contributions. At the moment I'm having a difficult time putting my hand on his post about what program he uses. I know it's not Profantasy.

Found it, he uses AutoREALM.

although this is possibly not the correct place to say this I just thought i would pop in and I noticed the map on the main page, its beautiful, a true work of art and congrats and thanks to everyone involved, i know personally it will make reading CA far more enjoyable being able to visualise the locations etc of the events as they unfold and will be a godsend for getting more of my friends into the series  ;D

Glad we could help with the visualization. There are lots of us who worked on the maps!
Whenever JB starts on his next epic series, I'm sure we'll be starting another similar thread :)

I find it funny - I have an easier time with both Campaign Cartographer & Fractal Mapper than I do with AutoREALM.

Then again, I'm a draftsman by trade, so maybe using both AutoCad & Revit constantly has something to do with my preferences.

Thanks for the info.

Oh, AutoREALM manages to make me scream here and there, but it has one major advantage over CC & FM... it's Free-Software. :-)
