I've written Vitruvius, a standalone tool that allows the user both a drag-and-drop and a 'glyphy text' interface for putting together collections of Caesar III glyphs.
With this tool, you can choose glyphs for individual Caesar III items (roads, houses, temples, etc.) and drag them onto a panel to create housing blocks or whatever. You could pretty easily draw part of a map and post it to get questions.
Like the glyphy tool, there is an action to generate HTML from the map portion you've drawn, either standalone HTML (open in a browser by itself) or 'forum HTML' (paste it into a HG post, like you may have done with the online glyphy tool).
I used the same glyphs as the glyphy tool (and many thanks to HG contributors for those!) but wrote it as a program instead of a web script.
The zip file (<3M) is in our Caesar III HG downloads area, and contains a Windows executable and the Java jar file. If anyone has info on packaging this for Mac and Linux, I'd be happy to hear about it. No ads, nothing that points towards revenue, no registration - I am just hoping to find someone else finds it useful!
