Now, that would be a sweet mat…

This would make a nice mat – grid or no grid?

I'm thinking about printing this at 60" x 24" without a grid. Look good on screen, the distortion isn't really noticeable…

No grid. Looks awesome.

For me, two-sided. One with a square grid consisting only of very, very tiny dots at the corners of the square. The other side with no grid.

That's awesome. Too bad I already have a mat that works just fine or I'd just have to make me one of these.

The ridiculously large .tiff version (which I can't find right now, but really, it's big) is even more impressive. If only I knew of a place that could print it on a 6'x8' piece of black felt. Preferrably without costing an arm and a leg.

ming31: Great idea. It's now up on my desktop. (I cropped out the NASA framing so it's all stars. A little stretched vertically, but you can't really tell.)

It's too bad I don't do a lot of spaceship gaming… That's a beautiful picture, Parzival.

If you printed it out, how would you put the grid on it?

BillChuck22 Nov 2009 1:59 p.m. PST

Dijit, I would edit a grid onto the image before printing. It's pretty easy in Gimp, should be just as easy in Photoshop.
