Re: my first edition AD&D site
I decided to use Fractal Terrains from Profantasy for some ideas on hemipshere/worlds. After I did about 30 ocean/land combinations, I came up with an idea I liked. Saved it out as a Campaign Cartographer 3 map, and edited it.
Deleted outdated map.
Instead of taking hundreds of 185×234 mile maps and adding them into a larger map, I decided to go this route.
In case anyone is wondering, the small maps are from my old 5mm hexagon hand drawn maps.

I’ve added more details to the preliminary southern hemisphere map.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
a close up of the new Trillolara area along with a close up of the continent area near it. I’ve added a few Non-player characters from my old game to the site. I recently found a long list of them and will probably add them over the next few months. I’m working on several ideas for maps and characters that I’ll add as I have time. Might add more Legends and Lore of the game world as well.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
Due to various hiccups, mistyped urls in my site navigation, different map layout, etc. I am very slowly moving this site over to a new site: Crest of a Star
I’ll probably be done in 2015.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
I have taken out the old menu system, it was giving me problems. I have added the new CSS3 dropdown menu to Crest of a Star
I know it looks weird with the two color areas, but I’m tired and couldn’t find the css background color that affects the two current white areas.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
Added the white background for all of the site back in.
There are now 2 dungeons, and additional articles with links in the menus. Some leaders/rulers over the game centuries, etc. This is the the Crest of a Star site.

Fascinating as usual ;-) BTW I get a 404 when I click on the map image here: http://crestofastar.drivein-jim.net/articles/10/quasqueton-ruins-wide-area-trillolara

Re: my first edition AD&D site
Akhhh. I was copying and editing links from the old site, and accidently left in both urls in that one. Fixed now.
Thanks.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
The crestofastar site now has added navigation links at the country level.
So the blue drop down menus at the top of the site for main navigation, and each country will have some div links for just that country on that country’s pages. I’m using the txp forms page, so I only have to edit changes once.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
I have moved a number of nations and other items, including maps, over to the new Crest of a Star website This move is probably about 10 percent done.
Edit by gaekwad: fixed link

Re: my first edition AD&D site
No new maps at this time being uploaded to the site; however, I have decided to map all of my maps over from scratch.
I am currently re-doing all of the surface maps. I have done 3-4 columns of 70 columns of the surface maps on one large map. I am using 2 of the Profantasy Annuals as starting maps. These Annuals are based on Age 13 and Fantasy Worlds Annuals.
Note: NO new maps have been uploaded. I don’t see any being completed until spring, 2015. If I do get done with them before then, I’ll post here and on the web site.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
I have added the new Crestar southern hemisphere map to my new site
This map is 1200 × 800 pixels. Some of the text may be hard to read.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
Both new hemisphere maps are up on my site. The Southern Hemisphere has been updated.

Re: my first edition AD&D site
Note that the old crestar site is gone. I’ll be replacing the old map on the crestofastar site and adding new maps to the crestofastar site. So if you like some of the old maps on the new site, get them while you can.
If you are looking for maps I’ve removed, just pm me, and I’ll create a download page on the new site for the old maps in zip format.
