thats fine thank you everyone..... i want it for driving mostly.....Im going to try http://openmtbmap.org/download/ and see....

Ok one more thing.... I did a 300 mile road trip and i used the trace option to load where i've been, OpenStreetMap does not have most of the roads I've been. since it is so long it is taking mr for ever to edit the roads and save them here. my question is.... is there a way to just use my traces and automatically make the new road in OpenStreetMaps and then I just make small changes after? or the only way to do it is to do it little by little, dot by dot? its just very exhausting to do it all and next week im going on another 300 mile trip where most of it is going to be new too. I want to help this maps get better but there is got to be a better way!!! to make it easier

yes I have MapSource running, but after I export "OpenStreetMap XML Data" and try to open it on MapSource it doesnt work......now im trying to find the software i need to convert the XML(.osm) file to OSM files
