Here are a couple of pictures of my campaign world. I am NOT an artist at all so please don't be too critical

Very nicely done. Not sure if you've tried Hexographer but you could take that map and use it to trace a Greyhawk-esque hex map with maybe 2 hours of effort.
I love Hellenistic settings and my current campaign world has been ran in both Ancients and Gothic mode. Great fun.

I like it!
I use Campaign Cartographer for most of my mapping though I always sketch it out by hand first. This is my current campaign setting:

I think I might have used Hexographer at one point. That's the one that makes maps like the Known World in module X1, yes?
I did not. It's from one of the LBBs.
