Oooooh! Look, a Map!

We've been working on improvements at Torn World. Most of the nuts and bolts work, of course, are Ellen's web-design skills. And she does art and fiction too!

The newest thing on the site is a map she put together which shows the present day (1520 by the Empire's count) Torn World, with the fracture lines where the Upheaval tore the world apart.  (Or you can click to hide the fracture lines.) This is a thumbnail of the actual map, which is not only larger, but is hyperlinked, so you can click on parts of the map and be taken magically to information about that place or culture!

And not only that, like the thumbnail on the Torn World landing page, you can click on this map  right here in my LJ to get to the real map.  (Thanks Ellen, for the code!)

Torn World is a work in progress, of course, so there are some places on the map that still need articles for the map to link to, but there's a lot of places where you can click and peek at some of the places of our world. 

My contest-winning landmark, The Pearly Towers is down in the lower right-hand corner, for instance.  Other tourist attractions, so to speak, include  my  Riilass Swamps, home of Skycat.  ysabetwordsmith 's Crystal Desert and Lichenwold are there too, as is her contest-winning city, Tiffijimi.  And, of course, ellenmillion 's Snow-Unicorn Riders.

Go poke at it, and let me know what you think!
