Lab Exercise Week 5

My intent was to use a callout for the chlorepleth map. I had to draw the lines to get close to the effect that I wanted. Personally I would have removed the United States inset map entirely. The text for this week refered to not needing map clutter. If someone is viewing this map they would have an understanding of where Florida is in the US. My major problem was trying to change the numbers in the legend. I could remove the zeroes on the first entry, but couldn't figure out how to change any of the others.

Florida Keys...Second attempt

Second Attempt. I still can't get the zoom correct. I couldn't find the crop tool under objects, so I used the save to web device and tried to resize. Very blurry.

Florida Key exercise

I know I have just started using this program, but it isn't for me. I feel that I can do more with Arcmap. This seems to be a "pretty function" that I don't need. The maps I create are used for analysis, not for magazine covers. I'll stick with it, but man is this illustrator frustrating.
