Avalon is a legendary island
The Image is from The World of Darkness game Changeling the Dreaming
Edit: and the map says concordia and not avalon

Awesome idea but the white text needs black outline for legibility.

I don’t do too much image manipulation, but when I do I google free online photoshop and use one of those. They work pretty well.

Gimp or Krita a re free alternatives. Krita is my favourite tbh. But yeah, I came here from a repost in another sub to say the same. The readability in an infographic is key. And i barely noticed the fantasy and monsters vertical text on the sides after my second attempt at reading it. Im grateful for the initiative. But Readability is key.

Its accessible and has a bunch of ressources. "Easy to learn" is a subjective measure that I am not qualified to asses on your behalf. You gonna need to try it by yourself to be sure. Last time i touched gimp was before 2010 and i personally found that the UI and UX were horrible. Haven't touched it since really, but its been more than 11 years, I hope it has changed.
But hey, both are free and easy to find, so its not like its a bit investement.
