 They look really good and I vote for a coastline next, problem is, you really need access to an A3 printer 

edit. Just tried a test print using poster mode so it splits the image up over several pages to tape together, but each square came out 5"x5".

Thanks.

Coastline huh, may be a bit hard, but I can see four tiles in the set, with at least two seamless edges, 1, ocean, 2, Ocean/Beach, 3, Beach, 4, Beach to concrete or grass. The beach could probablt flow seamlessly into the desert with out a lot of work, for you Operation Torch fans.

Yeah that can be a problem if you don't have a large printer, I can split them in two and put them in a PDF, but it will be hard to paste them together perfectly.

Here in a few weeks I'll go ahead and PDF them on "Legal" size paper.

Edit: probably a resuliton issue, sometimes images posted to the web get resized wether I want them to or not. Did you click to get a larger image first? If that doesn't help, can you tell the software exaclty what sizes yoou want every thing?

 I did click after reading that the one shown on your web page was a thumbnail, each little square was 5"x5" the whole tile 15"x15".

Ok. What's happening is through the magic of the internet, the resiloution is being changed from 300ppi to 72ppi. For now untill I upload them in a differnt form, you can use some image software to resize them to 11x11 inch at 300ppi.

Hate to make you do work, but I don't have any control over what the Google systems do to image files posted on the blog. Most of the time it's not an issue but with larger images it can be a problem.

Next month, or so I post all the tiles I come up with in a zip file, and maybe in the PDF I mentioned before.

If I forget please remind me.
