to make a decent map you need to play with photoshop for 2 weeks and you'll have the skills. to make a good looking map up that time to 1 month.
taht said i don't think he did try because he's been asking for halp for quite some time.


unit_2. photoshop is not hard, download it and play with it, experiment every tool it has. then go to google and search for photoshop tutorials. you'll find dozens of helpful websites.


PS: also the most impostant thing you need and this one can't be taught is talent. you need to have inspiration and artistic ability. look at other maps, go to art websites and browse various photoshop drawings. don't try to replicate them but rather try to enhance them. if you can make something pretty to look gorgeous then you have talent.

This is technically against the rules, but I'm not going to be the mean mod right now since it is more of a technical question that the response to could help people in general.

Just be careful to not post stuff that should go in the map topic.

Anyway, I think you got about as much answer as you are going to get, locking this down.
