I think many people would say that out of all the joke maps, it's their favorite one. UncleBob (who I know from the NintendoWorldReport forums) loved it enough to frame it!
The funny thing is, upon seeing a co-worker's custom montage of photos that she had printed and framed as a gift to her mother about two weeks ago, I had been thinking about getting the Light World from A Link To The Past printed and framed. This gives me a hint of how cool it might look.
Thanks for sharing, UncleBob!

I'm going to have to give them crap. I know I specifically stated 50 x 50 and said I was going to frame it, and that's the largest-sized standard square frame so it's not like I can buy a different frame. I'll have to bug them for a refund or exchange or something. I dunno. Otherwise I'm stuck with a too-big Light World poster...I suppose someone here might want it. Not like the printing shop would want to take it back.

The map in the original photo was created by me back in 2004/2005 for the April Fool's joke in 2005. The Map Of The Month in April was "Link's Awakening Advance", which I made by taking tiles from The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past (Super NES) and pasting them on top of osrevad's map for The Legend Of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX (GBC).
However, the printed/framed image and the photo of said image are UncleBob's, someone I know from the Nintendo World Report forums.
On VGMaps.com I also have the Light World of The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past, made by me as the first map for the site. However, Ian Albert also has a map of the Light World which he has made (note the inclusion of enemies and items on his map, and colours with slightly different RGB values).
...
Oh, and it sounds like I may be able to exchange my oversized print for the proper-sized one after all. Phew.
If I'm satisfied, I may get the Dark World printed (even though I didn't make that one) and get the same style frame, but black instead of white. I should put them on opposite sides of the same room, that'd look neat.

Congratulations on being able to get the map exchanged for one with the right dimensions. Like I said before, you paid the money and they should give you what you ordered. Good luck on your Dark World map printing.

i'm sure someone would want something that big to put on a wall or something.

In any case, I never did get around to printing and framing the Dark World map. I don't know why. I guess I've been busy with other stuff lately.
