CHALLENGE: Walk the Plank

Challenge winner ../../../profile.asp?fid=3132 - >(")< asks you to help a band of filthy pirates http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Talk_Like_a_Pirate_Day - walk like a pirate this week by creating a treasure map so they can find buried treasure.

The big challenge though is to have at least one part of your map pop out. ../../../../pixelart/10264.htm - This piece illustrates the idea, but this isn't necessarily an iso challenge. You can make any part pop out, whether it's a fantasy creature, a treasure chest or some land masses. Be creative!

You don't have to create a typical looking pirate map like http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixelart/28060.htm - this piece , but you must at least indicate where 'North' is and have an 'X' to denote where the buried treasure is.

Canvas Size - Max 256 x 256.
Colors - Max 21. Use only colors from this palette:

Transparency - Optional.
Animation - Optional.
