Very useful program!
I think this is a great starting point.
Actually I began Java terrain generator about
4 years ago but never reached even beta version :)

Just some comments:
- I've got a couple NullPointerExceptions. First
   when I tryed to call Run on initial terrain circle.
   Maybe it's illegal operation but who knows :)
- There is a lack of context help.
- I think it would be great addition if you would add
   also ability to combine images prepared in painting
   programs as well to produce smth. like this:

Gena.
