When you add in roads and names it just adds noise to them. Most know where they are from a county outline. The main point of the map are the categories so the basemap shouldn’t overshadow that. Level of hierarchy visually. It’s not the worst I’ve seen so high five!! Noted! I'll try to pick a better basemap for the Final Call. I was hesitant on what to use, but now that I have some advice, I will use it. Gracias 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt look at it much like that all all until it was too late. The more you know, the more you are compelled to focus and commit. It's a slow evolution. Once you're "in" it's almost like an addiction (or def is an addiction lol). Certainly not a harmful addiction in a physical sense but there is still a price to pay. Of course personality plays a huge role. When I really want to do something, nothing will ever get in the way. But when you find yourself teetering on allocating too much time (or inappropriate times like 0z euro on weeknights eg), it's good to be fully aware and honest with yourself that the hobby isnt stealing energy from other more important aspects of life. Being honest with yourself is the hardest part cuz brains and addictions and stuff.... Just a couple thought pennies and additional keyboard puke to consider.

North Balti Zen Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Guys. I am watching Aerosmoth: Breaking the Band...and I don't think those crazy kids are gonna make it. It's 1981 and drugs and hard feelings have caused a rift. It's in commercial now, but, I think that may be the end... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Balti Zen Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Oh geez, Steven Tyler has also hit rock bottom. It's 1982 - I wonder if he's starting to ask what ol' Joe Perry is up to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We clearly insulted the storm since last night so it should be no surprise it wants to take its ball and go home. Insulting NWS is just an added bonus so they can stop hoisting warnings completely 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
