Thanks Gerry,
I've emailed them asking if they have a 'bigger' version available
elsewhere.
From reading the docs, i know I should be able to make the 'blue' of
the sea and the green of the land transparent.
If I was using photoshop or something like that how can I figure out
the hex value(s) that I need?
Regards
John
P.S. Good luck with the submission!

I was going to email them to ask if a larger image size could be
