Signature Line

[ksmooney]

Good Afternoon fellow Mooniacs,

I am relatively new to the forum and have been noticing a lot of users on this website have neat color coated maps for their signature lines. I am sure there are threads that explain how y'all do that, but I am unable to find them! I would like to be able to start color coating a map on where I fly the Mooney, especially since I am going to be doing an across the US cross-country this month.

Another Kansas Mooney! Welcome to the site, and consider joining the Flying Monkeys squadron to learn and practice formation flying. There is a clinic coming up in May if you're interested.

As a new KS Mooney flier... I'm getting this on my calendar.  Never done any formation flying, but have always thought it would be fun to learn... and to find a Mooney specific clinic only 30 minutes away by Mooney!

What I want to know is how the really cool pilots have figured out how to squeeze maps of Canada and the Carribean or Mexico into their signature lines?

They fly there and bring them back with them.

I didn't know they had this now till your question prompted another look. But the same folks that provide the visitedstatesmap also now provide a comprehensive map for North America which brings in CENAM as well:

Prior to this, I used this for Canada http://visitedstatesmap.com/visited-provinces.php  and this for Mexico http://www.visitedmexicomap.com/ and then combined them without CENAM and the islands.  They now have Europe covered too, but nothing for Asia yet. 

Combining them seems to keep  the footprint smaller, but I may have to do some experimenting.

I haven’t had a problem finding the maps.  The problem I have had is sticking more than one in the signature line.  Is there some magic to that?

That what I do, just combine the multiple graphics files into one graphic file layer out the way you like.
