Ya see, I like how the icons are blended in here. Doing the same concept with the dream world, maybe a purple shading over the icons, would look fantastic.

I've tried darkening the water and brightening the land a little bit, but it looked pretty strange, to be honest. Also, the mountains didn't match the map anymore. :( As for the location icons, I can't really enlarge them or else they'd break out of the 32x32 event sheet.
(Well, there's manually repixeling each one, but...I don't have time for that. >_>)

I agree with the desaturation, but I think it might hinder readability for the player.
How about sepia tones? Happy sent me this edit:

Location icons would look a bit better if they were a tad bit desaturated, to more match the map itself. Although it doesn't look bad the way they stand out. In fact, might be better that way, for practicality's sake.
Mmh- I kinda have trouble reading this map... In maps like these is often common for the darker areas to be the sea and the lighter areas to be the land. It's a positive-negative space thing. It's easier to read and appreciate details against a lighter background; and the darker areas help to better frame what's important. But anyway, I don't know if you'll be able/willing to change it now that is finished so...
Also, I feel the location icons could look better if they were a little bigger. ^^

Must be tile based I believe :P pixel movement would a very heavy hassle for nothing particularly useful :P

Is the movement of the cursor pixel or tile based? Overall, a very nice looking world map, and I like how you incorporated the RTP mountains into it.
