That's surely a lot of the reason why OSM looks strange from an American point of view, but he does have a couple of valid points - the map does look a bit 'washed out' at low zoom levels, with many similar shades of almost-grey (which may be tasteful for a printed map, but less good on a computer screen), and again at low zoom levels the country and city labels look very similar. -- Ed Avis <e...@waniasset.com> _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
