GMT 3.1 introduced color patterns and this examples give a few cases of how to use this new feature. We make a phony poster that advertises an international conference on GMT in Honolulu. We use grdmath, makecpt, and grdimage to draw pleasing color backgrounds on maps, and overlay pscoast clippaths to have the patterns change at the coastlines. The middle panel demonstrates a simple pscoast call where the built-in pattern # 86 is drawn at 100 dpi but with the black and white pixels replaced with color combinations. The final panel repeats the top panel except that the land and sea images have changed places (Figure 6.19).
