The heightmap editor isn't a good idea unless you are creating a very large island, at least 40 cells or more across. Anything smaller than that should be done in the landscape editor to avoid unnecessary bloat. When you use the heightmap editor, 4 quads worth of cells are automatically added to your mod. If you don't need them, it's wasteful. To raise land quickly in the landscape editor, just raise a patch of land above water and use the flatten tool to drag surrounding land up to the same level. With maximum brush size, a cell's worth can be raised in a few seconds.
