Almost Done?!

Can it be? Is it true? Am I actually almost done with this class and final project?! Maybe. Haha, but this is what I have so far! I'm actually really proud with what I've done thus far. So all the data is there, the proportional symbols are in place, yes I still have to do scale, clean it up a bit, make some changes, not sure what to do quite yet with the text on the bottom, but this is the gist of it. Take a look?

On this map I have some paw prints outlined in black, and some not outlined at all. I think I like the bigger prints better outlines, but it's hard to see the smaller ones. Thoughts? Ways I can work with it?

Final Lab Critique

Some idea with neon colors.

Final Lab Critique

Here it is, my final map in progress. The data is pretty simple, pretty straightforward, what we've been dealing with for most semesters. Thus, I really want to do something eye catching and creative in the design. I would like to make it catchy, intense, sharp. So my thoughts are going from neon to black and the contrast. However, I'm super open for suggestions! I think I would like my legend to be in dog paw prints, with the different colors for the different numbers of attacks, but I don't have a color scheme yet - nothing has caught my attention. Help!
