But a +1 to add this to the dev list. Please.
I recommend GNU Image Manipulation Program - GIMP.

I've not used Photoshop and while I've got Campaign Cartographer 3, I've barely used it.

I took a larger version of this image,



and overlayed a grid, and also the numbering system, then chopped it up into smaller chunks, like so.



It took a little while to get used to how it worked, but the help file and the forum were the way to go with any difficulties.

Sleet was enjoying a tasty beverage at his local tavern, when a Tarrasque showed up in the local area. He managed to valiantly get on it's back and ride it. How he did it is a mystery to this day...
