State borders are definitely an improvement. I'm not sure about the secondary roads. At zoom 8, the previous render looks good, but it gets overwhelming once zoomed out a bit. (starting around zoom 6 I guess?) Maybe just the narrowing, without touching the color would be better? Or maybe less reduction of the saturation. Railway lines are a big improvement, but should probably be a touch darker yet.. (IMO their visibility should be just below that of primary roads; they're currently just below secondary in visibility.) -Alex Mauer "hawke" _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
