Okay, I am getting quite mad!

In response to this thread:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2316

This image/thing/file is 3.7mb HUGE!
That is a 5kb dial-up downloading killer.

So I made a small little cropping or editing myself. That way, we all can just see only the part of the map we want, instead of the whole thing, while it loads and eats up your cpu.

Here it is, divided in 6 parts.
I suggest you save-as them, hence they are still a tad huge, but they load better.

Lava Area (www.dotspiral.com/gw/lava.jpg) - 131kb - 25 sec on 5 kb speed.
Desert Area (www.dotspiral.com/gw/desert.jpg) - 253kb - 50 sec on 5 kb speed.
Jungle Area (www.dotspiral.com/gw/jungle.jpg) - 327kb - About 1 Min, 5kb speed.
Pre-Sear Ascalon Area (www.dotspiral.com/gw/ascalon.jpg) - 329kb - About 1 Min, 5kb speed.
Lion Arch Area (www.dotspiral.com/gw/lionarch.jpg) - 337kb - About 1 Min, 5kb speed
Snow Area (www.dotspiral.com/gw/snow.jpg) - 807kb - About 2 Min, 40sec 5kb speed

Is there any reason you failed to give any credit whatsoever to the people who helped put together that map, of which there are many? I appreciate that you are trying to contribute, but... I would appreciate it if you'd ask before taking things that other people have worked on and cutting them up.
Ho ho, I am terribly sorry, after I post this, I realize I forgot to give credit to the original creators of the map. When I did, I tried to re-edit the post but, the post couldnt be edited because the admin was still in the process of approving it. Once again, Sorry!

and of course, the Community who put it together.

Nice job, think its alot easyer to open a map that shows the part where your in, instead of having to zoom in on a to big map.

It looks like you can get to Droknars from Beacons perch, and up to mineral springs, can you?

Yes, you can. It's rather difficult, however, and I wouldn't reccommend it for anything less than a full party of level 20s.

It is ROUGH to make that trip. heck, it is rough going the opposite way with decent henchmen, trying it the other way? Lol.

Probably not too bad with a full party of real players who know what they're doing. On the other hand, next time I see one of those I'll probably be sitting next to Jesus.

Stoned bob, this is a massive necropost >_>;
This topic's rather old, and by now I already made my own "mini-maps". Of course the maps are down right now, but I'm still working on getting them back up.
