Wikipedia:Picture peer review/Ancient Egypt main map

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A map of ancient Egypt, with geographic regions and notable cities from the dynastic period.

This is a map I had thought about making for several years, because I wanted to be able to have a high resolution map that I could customize. When I finally got around to learning photoshop, I decided to make the map; it took about 3 days. I am pretty happy with the way it turned out, and I think it might meet the featured criteria. I'd like to know how I could improve it, and whether or not it could pass. The map now appears in several articles related to ancient Egypt.

Comments:

  • Voters at Featured Picture Candidates prefer .svg graphics, and think this map would be a good example of something they'd like in SVG instead of PNG. Otherwise, it looks good to me, but I don't know much about ancient Egypt. Enuja (talk) 21:35, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I figured that might come up. My version of photoshop won't make .svg files. I've played around with Inkscape, but the help menu/system is not that helpful. I'm usually pretty good at figuring out how things work, but I'm not sure where to begin with Inkscape. Are there any useful weblinks or other Inkscape users I could ask for suggestions?
