Looks good! I can see you're putting a lot of effort into this
First of all excellent Photoshop-ing on the poster-map - you do however need to sort out the thumb nails though, your smaller thumbnail images need to have different names from the larger images they are linked to or they will (as had happened) overwrite each other when you up load

I've also changed the direction of the stream, as sewers normally do not branch out, but flow together into one main stream (towards rivers). Just seemed more logical to me.
actually that's something that's always bugged me about the original poster map - although the water should logically be flowing from left to right to match the design of the sewer streams, the artwork depicts the water flowing the other way.

When I wrote the original adventure I kept the water flowing in the same direction because it prevents Heroes from 'riding' the flow toward the cell and encourages them to explore the map because the water forces them to think about how they are going to cross the channel (the original reason behind the flowing water was to prevent the heroes wading along the channel) - which reminds me the adventures need to include a line something like this: "If a Hero is washed off the edge of the map they are not dead but cannot take any further part in this adventure. Once the rest of the Heroes leave the dungeon the Hero who got 'flushed away' will rejoin them in the town."
As for the PDF, again great work there and very professional looking indeed!
I love the image on the front cover, where did you find it?
Can I request you credit the 2nd quest as 'Made by Guzzi based on a quest by MortiS' as Guzzi has really made this quest his own and his plot is very different from the original one I wrote (my Quest didn't have Mr. Groat the Tax Collector so re-writing it to fit my plot will ruin the over all story Guzzi wrote)
