I found a really nice mapping program called AutoREALM (www.autorealm.org (http://www.autorealm.org)). It has all sorts of nifty drawing features, like fractal lines for realistic coastlines, rivers, paths, etc. There are a ton of little icons to place all over, and you can set different colors which gives it a look that I think is neat. Getting access to maps and icons, even simple ones, has always been a challenge and a barrier for me, but this has really helped and I plan to take these maps and use them as backgrounds for online DM programs (or print them for tabletop).

You can do things with simplicity, but there's a lot of power in this little tool; so I'm passing on the word to whoever needs it. :smallbiggrin:
