I couldn't figure Terragen out for the life of me but I found a program called "World Machine" and it's pretty simple. Adjust a few sliders, hit a button a few times for some randomness and you get a nice heightmap.
My Mountain Building and Multi-Environment servers were both created with Terragen and importing the heightmap. For the second I used GIMP to composite the two maps together (took a lot of contrast and brightness adjusting to get the water level right.

Putting that on my server next time it gets reset(512x512x256. World Machine is a LOT better than Terragen, especially if you use layout guides. The basic edition is also free and legal, and doesn't have too many limitions.

Woah, I request a download link!
yeah I want that exact map.
It's on my server now, so I don't want to give it away until it's off.
Did you guys change the size from 257x257 to 256x256? There's a"+1" option somewhere you can disable (forgot where) or you can do it with an image editor.
They totally didn't overprice it.
Everything is free on the internet, you just have to know where to look.
I smell warez hinting.
BAN.
Are you talking about the free version of World Machine?
Besides, those professional studios have more than enough money for expensive software
Contains Pachebel's Canon made with noteblocks, a working Rubik's cube made with pistons, and the ultimate TNT cannon.
I've been trying to map for Wurm in WM and showing it off (as mapping isn't one of Rolfs strengths) and testing them out in Minecraft.
Takes a bit of adjusting, but I love it.

Edit: These are the ones that I posted the heightmaps of earlier.

Hmm, is it a white to black kind of hight map?
Also I am tempted to import a fractal converted to black and white in omen after seeing OP's signature.
Quality of output = Skill * Effort
Actually, the only .dat of that one I have is the messed up version... so I'll just upload the World Machine file.
