| First download the [http://data.openstreetmapdata.com/land-polygons-complete-4326.zip WGS land polygon shapefile]. Unzip the shape file. Then choose '''Layer->Add Layer->Add Vector Layer''' and load the shape file into QGIS. Right-Click the layer's square icon in the legend and click '''Properties'''. In the Style tab click the '''Simple Fill''' and the '''Fill''' combobox. Then choose the color "#000000" (black).

| Then choose '''Project->Save As''' and save the project as coastline.qgs . Quit the QGIS application.

| Open the resulting coastline.png. Then choose the '''Crop tool''' and select the area starting at the top edge of the canvas and the left border where russia is cut off. Drag the selection area down to the bottom right corner of Antarctica. Then crop the image.
