Well I'm not too familiar with map making since I've never made a map on here I only make presets but well have you tried checking out the tutorials section? It's very possible that maybe you over looked something and made a mistake somewhere and maybe one of the tutorials under the map making section can help you review things. There is plenty info about height maps and terrain making on there. Hope that helps Shelby.
Here's a link to that section:

Is that the size of the image file for the height map?  It has to be 513x513.  You change the size of the map itself in map maker.

It also could be that the terrain picture is to detailed so feralheart can't handle it

Yup make sure its 513 by 513 or it will not work
I got an account reset, that's why my account looks a bit odd.

You can make a detailed large map,
but when you are done,
you must scale it down to 513x513.
It must also be in greyscale mode,
and a flattened image.

Then you may change the actual size of the map in Map Maker, by going to the World tab and changing the Width. c:

I don't mean the terrain I mean like... The grass or dirt. I made my own of that and it won't show up in game
