Cutthroat Island map image needed

[Ramsey]

Ahoy! This is my first post on this forum...just discovered it a few days ago.

Besides being a big pirate fan, I also have a hobby of making replicas of maps from movies...one of my favorite achievements being my replica of the treasure map from "The Goonies".

Now, after seeing "Cutthroat Island" again the other night, I'm dying to try to make that one, too.....if you remember, it's in three parts: pigskin, parchment paper and barrel bottom piece. I have a couple of decent screenshots of the map pieces I found on another website...but not quite clear enough to see all the images or get all the info from the map.

Would there by any chance be someone out there who might provide a good shot of the maps...or maybe even be able to tell me what all that Latin text on the map says? I can make out a few of the words, but not enough to complete it.

I appreciate any help that might come along, and I'm looking forward to hanging out at this forum. *S*

greetings Ramsey!

I am not able to help you with the map, but go to the intros and say hi, then ask again about them. And Newbie buys the first drink.

Welcome! If I recall correctly, it wasn't all latin. I think the important part of it was actually just reversed english, or written upsidedown and backwards, somehow, so they could read it with a knife/mirror. And technically the one part was her father's scalp... o.o Creepy, but interesting. Though I suppose you'd have to replicate that with something like pigskin... heheh. It actually took me watchin' that movie twice or thrice to really catch all that was there to get.

I'm sorry I can't help with stills or details for ye, but I think it's a grand thing you be doing. And I wish ye the best o' luck.

Wow, thank you both very much! I'll keep you guys updated on my progress...slow going, but steady.
