Hi Ivan, Most of the maps on this site are made with Campaign Cartographer. It's my preferred map making tool because it's easy to start making decent looking maps right from the start. A few are also made with PhotoShop. PhotoShop is A LOT more expensive and the learning curve is higher, but the possibilities of what you can do with it are endless once you become proficient with the software. There are lot of other tools out there you can use to make maps, some of them are even free. Gimp, for instance, is an open source image editor similar to PhotoShop. The Cartographers Guild forum is a great site to check out and see what can be done with different types of software. They have a very active community of professional, amateur and newbie map makers willing to help out the new guys. One of these days I'll get around to making a better list of resources, but I think those links should give you a good starting point.
