it looks really crappy and i am too bad to improve it. i wanted to use this worlmap like in a rpg where the player character walks all over the world in a very short time. but i don't think that i can use this inÃ,  my game. i wanted to ask for your help. can somebody try to transform this crappy worldmap into a good looking one?

I'm not trying to act like a moderator, but this forum is for getting critic and suggestions about your work, not for letting other people draw for you.

But anyway, it's not that bad. What makes it bad is that you combine solid color rectangles with detailed icons. If the game is tile-based, you can still improve it by adding a texture to the ground. Or you could have rounded corners  on the edges, it would certainly look better than this.

Also, you have a lot of mountains that are alike and just copy/pasted all over. A little more variety wouldn't hurt anyone.

Alright, you two.  Knock it off before I make you sit in separate corners.

What you could try doing is de-pixellating the map, just try and smooth it out by removing few pixels here and there.
