Why do my assets have a hue to them?

I’m working on a map and for some reason all the assets that came with wonderdraft have a blue hue to them despite the colours being set to white, or any other colour. Any ideas how I can fix this?

I'm having some trouble making the spiral pattern of these islands look interesting but somewhat plausable. I feel like I'm almost there but it still needs something. Any suggestions?

Base Layout for a Fantasy World

First post here! This is the foundation for a fantasy world map I’m creating to support my writing, so some shapes might look odd. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this known world map and your take on the way I've painted the continents. For context, the northernmost continent is the closest to the Arctic.

Question regarding trouble loading assets...

The creative u/Shield_Anvil was gracious enough to speak with me in DM's trying to help me get his wonderful earth map to load (which so many have shown interest in as a starting point for a alt-earth campaign map of some sort or another, but have also not been able to get it to load properly), and we're seemingly at an impasse. I was hoping the experts here might be able to help us figure out what's going wrong.

I've tried putting the asset files in the exact directory specified, and I've also tried putting them in my default asset folder. No matter what, wonderdraft keeps telling me that it can't load the assets with XYZ names in ABC directory, even though all those files with those names are in that exact directory.

What might the issue here be? Thanks in advance for any help, and feel free to ask for more information if you need it.

moving an equirectangular projection

I'm pretty new to wonderdraft so sorry if this is simple, but I have an equirectangular mape that I like except that the edge cuts off in the middle of a contanent. I've found a spot that'd be good, but I don't know if I'm able to move everything. I tied exporting and editting in paint, but the seam is really obvious.

Macs and Wonderdraft

Will Wonderdraft work on the Mac OS. The website is confusing. It says Mac OS is supported but, when purchase is attempted, only a Windows installer is offered.

My interpretation of Arda

I recently finished my first ever map and I like it very much. This software feels like cheating haha.

This is my interpretation of Arda with a focus on the mostly overlooked areas of Rhun, Khand and Harad. Most of the locations and names are somehow mentioned in Tolkiens work and interpreted in some way. I may be stretching it in some parts (Bay of Ringol), but I despise empty areas on maps. Also there are some locations fully fanon that are a part of a Blue Wizards Fan Fiction I am currently writing. It is a Hommage on Tolkien and written in his style (worse but still), not some smut sh*t.

Custom color assets help

Hi!

I've downloaded custom assets that allow for custom colors. I can place them and change their custom color, great.

But every time I place them they go back to some sort of default custom color, meaning I need to recolor after I place them. Is there a way to set my custom colors and then assets that have custom color options would actually remember what I've set it to? So I can just place away to my hearts content? :D
