Default Map Creation Guide

Can anyone point me to a good tutorial on making maps for Dominions 3? My understanding is that there's two files, one determines the layout of the provinces, and the other is the image of the map itself. I'm just looking for a simple set of instructions on how to edit the image file to change something while at the same time editing the province location file so that everything jives properly.

I'd like to host 3-4 new games, but I always stumble trying to generate the maps. The random generator takes forever and a day. I'd like to be able to take one of those random maps, and poke it around to get it looking nice.

Alternatively, if anyone is interested in making some maps to specification (nothing fancy required), that'd be great.
