Digital Map Tiles

Post Sun Jan 22, 2012 4:28 pm

How do you use/what do you do with digital map tiles?

I get the DriveThruRPG newsletter and each week they have a different map to download but I don't have a clue how to use them. Mind you I don't have a clue how to do digital mapping in any shape or form so maybe it's just me. :P
Are you supposed to cobble them together in GIMP or Photoshop?
The problem with doing something really stupid to impress people is that they may just be impressed by how stupid you really are.

I always got the impression you're supposed to print 'em.

Me, I just collect them. Not much need yet, but it's good to be perpared.

Except that they always have 1/2 of it covered up with the logo. Maybe that's why they're free.

Good, so it's not just me that does that. ;)
