You are on the right way: mymap_c.tga is black and white.
You must continue iteratively:
make adjustion of mymap_c.tga, , restore map_c.tga and map_c.tga_table, observe in the map the effect and go back to mymap_tga adjustment.
There could be some smoothing effect in the map visible.
Continue until satisfied.
Good luck.

Ok.good..as to the scaled up image being blocky and alianized...if the coast outline was a bit smoother I could make finer adjustments..guess there is a setting to do this?

There is an instrument in GIMP - select the region on mymap_c.tga
you want and apply the gaussian filtering to it. Iteratively again.

Read the above post 60 once more.
Adjust the file mymap_c.tga by GIMP.
Read the mapmakers bible:

Show your version of mymap_c.tga with corrections required.

Ok..I'll read those tutorials. Not knowing what tool I  should use, I used the eraser tool to shave off and shape the coastline.
Guess I'm not saving or restoring the mymap_c.tga correctly.
