i agree...there is money made by selling premium membership...but the names of planets are not copyrighted if I'm not mistaken.

Maybe not,though. This is one of the most major difficulties involved with Star Wars maps. but, if there is a royalty-free image approved by Lucasfilm, I can use that ...

i'm still looking for a royalty-free image

I'm also considering working with a completely had-drawn image by me...i donno

we'll see how my diplomatics prove out!!

I don't think I can do the map at all...the image passed off to me as royalty-free is actually copyrighted by Lucasfilm and/or Bantam Books.

I think this map is all-around toast...too bad. We could have used a Star Wars map to complete the collection.

btw, the name Star Wars IS copyrighted as ...

I am beginning to think I will have to abandon this idea...Unfortunately I am pretty sure that the image that someone told me was "royalty-free" isn't.

This really stinks...but If i find a truly royalty-free image I will start work again.

Sorry for hoping everyone!

as for the rough draft, I'm working on it

for the location, It's in space focusing on the ENTIRE star wars galaxy!!!!

I'm still working on specials, but I'm pretty sure I'll do something wierd, like fleets that can attack each other or something!!

I'm still discussing the details with andy ...

gimil, If I may, I'm actually using what is known as a royalty-free image that is available on the Star Wars website, if I'm not mistaken. This means I should be able to take care of copyright issues with ease.

P.S. I noticed that there are more votes than there are different people who have ...

I actually am almost finished with the preliminary image file.

I'm just trying to find a better editing software than I have.

I'll host the image when it's finished!!!!

I'm gonna keep up work on the image file until I get a reply from someone in charge...I hope that happens soon!

For one thing, I don't know who either of those people are...for another I'm pretty sure I can take care of copyright issues...I have some contacts, LOL!!

If either one of the people aforementioned would please drop me a pm or reply, that would be GREAT!!!

Oh, ps...gimil...I happen to LOVE ...

just so you know...yes!@!!

dispayre is one of my BEST friends!!!

I'm Matt he's Mike!!

We just both happen to like the darth_ prefix and LOVE star wars!!!

Hi!

I just read all the rules for making a map and I'm surprised that I don't see any suggestions for a star wars map!

I have a VERY good image file and am quite willing to do the work of putting the map together.

I'm still working on updating the file so that it will work for a Conquer ...
