Would it be possible to provide a data format by which one could upload custom inlay layers to produce a design of his choosing? I'm thinking specifically about a silhouette photograph I shot of my son. Is there a way to validate the manufacturability of an arbitrary layer set?


I'd like to have a little more control, so I could fit, say, Yosemite Valley in the 5x16 by rotating the map a little.


We can't do rotations..but a hidden pro feature is you can drag the gray frame in the google maps interface to zoom in and out precisely.


The mouse-over pointer change is a well chosen hint and the affordance is fairly obvious. Nicely done.


Bizarro gabesmed here -- my noprocrast settings got the better of me! Yup, contact us at team@woodcutmaps.com and we can pretty much do any image. Our processing settings are tuned specifically for maps, but could be applied to any image. Would be curious to see how a photo would come out.


How about a circuit board layout diagram? It's been a long-standing tradition at my work to etch designs onto PCBs as gifts for employees who are leaving. These are beautiful, and would really raise the bar.


Can I PLEASE see some pics of this, this sounds awesome.

In 1998, while at Intel, I did the Decepticon logo in circuitry for the album art for my friends CD.

I'd love to see what you did.
