GMs really need more help on how to make maps for their games (as part of learning how to GM, or how to GM better).

Personally I was so stumped at the techniques others were using to make maps, because the solution is usually either to find some way to export it then print it (and that's putting it very simply), or to just buy a blank flipmat and draw it (which is what I see most people do).

As a result of that, I researched it and wrote up this guide which I've posted before, but I can't remember where I put that - somewhere in Pathfinder Society GM Discussion, because that's the most appropriate place.

Then there are threads like this asking for (and getting) advice, which will eventually disappear over time as well.

Is it possible to add a hardcoded section to the site somewhere with these guides? Link to your map product pages so that it increases sales while you're at it - we want to buy them along the way. You guys will know how to deal with exporting and using maps from PDFs (your map-packs, PFS scenarios etc) for games better than we do.

Hm, this is a really interesting request. I'm wary of a hardcoded feature into our site to link to these items (because it requires our community team to consistently monitor and maintain these pages), but I will bounce this and see if there's an appropriate area we can sticky resource threads (or make an overarching "Map Resource Thread").
