I don't know if its appropriate for me to post these here, but I never did get a response when I asked the question, so here you go.
I made all of the maps for The Crow in photoshop, and exported them as JPGs for use in MapTool or however you want to use them. The scale is 50 pixels per 5' square. Feel free to use however you like, but NO SELLING! All I ask is that you give me the credit for the initial effort.
I hope you like, and I hope your players do too. I know mine did.
The Crow - Thassilonian Laboratories
I also have all of these as MapTool campaign with the vision blocking layers in place if anyone is interested in those.
The lower levels (catacombs through sewers) are better quality, as I learned some tricks as I went along.
Thank you for the maps.
Nicely done.
I simply bought the interactive maps and made snapshots with Acrobat. By the way, from a long time MapTools guy, have you taken a look at Roll20? Totally worth the very meager price of admission. Except for the Token Maker, we moved all our campaigns to Roll20, even use it for table top games tbh.
Favorited, and these are awesome! Since you're allowing us to use these, I'll make sure to make a note to my players about who made 'em when we get around to using them.
Thanks for taking the effort to make these :D
@scadgrad - Thanks. I haven't really looked in much depth at Roll20. I have a basic account, but haven't taken the time to check out the advanced features.
@DM crustypeanut - I am glad you are enjoying them.
@Jigsaw - glad to hear your players enjoyed them.
I enjoy making maps in my (infrequent) spare time, and enjoy learning new tricks and techniques to make things easier/better.

Here are some from the first part of The Lady's Light. I'll try and add more as I get to them, about 1-2 a month.
Bigrin... thank you so much. I have been working on maps for RotRL for some time now, and am playing in a SS map. We are just working our way into the Ladys Light, and your maps will be a huge help!
These are really good...thanks for posting / sharing...my PBP group are about to head into the Crow and, whilst the SS interactive maps are pretty good, these are much neater... and, crucially, they are at a 5ft square scale.
I would just like say thank you for this. I was honestly worried I wasn't gonna have time to make these myself for tonights session. You have saved my ass.
Thank you everyone for the comments/compliments. I am just glad that people are getting some enjoyment from them.
@Apupunchau - how do you get the maps into roll20 and fit them to their grid? Last time I looked, the roll20 grid was fixed at 70 pixels/cell and I made the maps at 50/cell.

I'm using them on Roll20: Theres an align to grid tool. You upload the image onto the site, drag it over as a map tile, expand it enough that you can easily select a 3 by 3 grid, then right click, go to Advanced, then Align to Grid. As long as the map's size is in a complete number of grid squares, it'll line up perfectly. Yours are the best I've ever used for that.
Concur, your maps fit Roll 20 perfectly. The interactive ones don't.
Wow, okay. I guess I need to go back and try Roll20 again. Thanks for hte heads up!

Again, these are awesome, but I did notice a small error on Dungeon Level 2: The dock that the PCs arrive at (L1) is missing. Technically the falls are as well, but that's less of a concern.
Yep, you got me. I had to add it in post because I completely forgot about it. Next levels of Lady's Light will be up after the New Year.

I hadn't realized there was only one more map in Lady's Light.
Also, here is the updated Level 2, complete with waterfall and docks.
DM Bigrin does the best Christmas Presents.
Again, thank you all.
We should finish Lady's Light this weekend, if all goes well.
I am currently working on a swamp map for the first part of the next module (plus some side projects). Hopefully that will be done by next week. Here's a preview
Any way you could get the earlier maps too? Such as Natalya's Hideout. In addition, what should the roll20 grid size be when I align the pic?
It literally doesn't matter. Leave the grid on its default settings, then just use the align tool. Trust me, I do this all the time.

Before I learned how to make my own maps, I got these from a friend.
Natalya's Hideout - ground floor
Natalya's hideout - Upper floor
As for grid size, all of mine are built on a 50 pixels per 5' cell grid.
Ready to start the third module? My RL players finally are. We'll be going through the mushfens using this swamp map as the basis. Enjoy!
*blush*
Holy crap DM Bigrin, that swamp is beautiful...
Thanks! I had a lot of fun making it. Something like 300+ layers in that one. Did it over the course of a week while catching up on Arrow in Netflix.

300 layers, that size, and it still only comes to 8MB. That's good.
well, it is a flattened JPEG after all. The PSD file is closer to 280MB...and it has 1203 layers (yikes!)
Since the original thread was all about the Shards of Sin (first module) and I have branched out beyond that, I am closing this thread and placing all the maps in a new thread. This should make it more clear as to what maps are available. Thanks again for all your comments.
