Have you got a drawing program in mind?
Hey there! For your African history project, you might want to use a good mapping tool like QGIS or an online platform such as Mapbox or Google Maps. If you're looking for something simple to draw by hand, you could try using basic drawing apps on your tablet or computer. Let me know if you need tips on labeling or choosing the right scale!
You meant to ask about drawing an image after importing it. Here’s a clearer version:
You can use Paint.NET (http://www.getpaint.net) to open the imported file. It's a free tool that's user-friendly for beginners, though GIMP is also available but might feel more complex. If you want to draw on it, simply open the image in Paint.NET, adjust the settings, and draw your design directly onto it. That should work perfectly!
GIMP is quite the trend, offering a huge number of layers which makes it great for creating maps.
The top choice for map creation would be ArcGIS, though it might exceed your requirements. Inkscape works well for this task. If you have the full Office suite, MS Publisher is a solid option. Gimp is useful, but scaling problems can make it difficult for reports or presentations.
