Wow that's a lot of chert!  I suggest you make something about that river, it just crosses the way into your fortress... I don't know, maybe redirect it to somewhere elses, or just drain it, just for FUN

so... brown... it hurts!

You should try to think tri-dimensionally instead of focusing on only one layer. For example, having the wood stockpile above or below the wood-related workshops (carpentry, wood furnace, bowyer...) and a couple of stairs, or using multiple layer stockpiles is usually more efficient than a single huge stockpile.

Your beds may be too close from the workshops - dwarves will be upset by the noise. Not sure on this one, I have trouble finding the beds in this picture (sooooo brooooooown again :s)

Several specific stockpiles is usually far more efficient than one huge stock-everything room

Concerning the farm, your poor animals may soon be casualties of war if you don't fortify the pens. Also, I don't see any fields on this picture...

don't get shy on stairs - a single set of stairs will become a huge bottleneck later on. Think of them like a single-tile vertical corridor between two section of your fortress.

Good luck on this possession however!

You can mod the raws to do so. Also, you'll hear it on every forum ever, but double posting =/= a good thing.
If I need to bump a thread, I usually delete my last post and repost it (if the forum allows deleting) and that'll usually work pretty well.

Dude,sorry if I scared you off earlier, but I was just suggesting stuff, y'know?

You need to find elves and cage the filthy tree-lovers on top of your entrance. Then drop them on goblins for a tribute to Armok.
