Heres mine. I'm pretty proud of it. No magma though, but plenty of coal and lignite to use. I have quite a few legendary wrestlers, all given the proper WWE names such as Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, etc. I'm sure there are a few things I could have done better, but with 1.5million dwarfbucks and rising, I think I made a good effort.

Also, I think I went overboard on the farming.

It's not much to look at yet, but Whiteoak has some great circular chambers and a semi-fractal bedroom design that I'll probably add to the Wiki.  The next upload will include the addition of the Tower Cap Farm and most of the plumbing system.

Oh, and the forts in my sig are pretty awesome - both feature giant "Hammer Chamber" rooms for the nobles.  Towerweak's chamber is particularly nice because I managed to incorporate the local geology into my artistic design.

 Alright, the fact that nobody has posted on the goodness of the above fortress is a crime punishable by several days in jail. Although it does seem like another fortress out there...

HOLY SHIT JURPH. I love that fortress entrance. It is quite possibly the best I've ever seen.

Thanks!  Things are going badly - I lost a few dozen dwarves and am dealing w/ tantrum ripples right now - but I'll have some great shots of more interlocking round rooms soon enough.

Also: those lion towers kick ass.

Smew, define "too big".  I thought DFMA supported any map that DF could output!

Well, it's literally telling me that the filesize of my map is too big, I suspect this has to do with me using a tileset and a smaller resolution than the tileset is made for.

Interesting... I bet Markavian would like to hear about that bug, if only to figure out where the incompatibility is.  Does the map compressor choke on it, or does the website not accept the compressed output?

Mm, the website is what's not accepting it, the map compressor DOES give me a few certain errors, most of which concerned the tiles and the size of the screen. :P
