I never said a map of Pangea, I want a blank map of either the Jurassic or Cretaceous Period
You realize that both those periods spanned over millions of years with massive geologic changes happening the entire time? Its like you are asking for a political map of Europe without citing a specific date. The locations of land masses were constantly changing.
A map of Pangaea is probably the closest you will get.

This may help. 
Also, "dinosaur period" is a very loose term that really doesn't fit reality given that dinosaurs spanned a period of about 160 million years. The first dinosaurs started appearing in the late Triassic (about 220 million years ago), but dinosaurs didn't become really abundant until the start of the Jurassic (about 200 million years ago), but from that moment on they dominated terrestrial ecosystems until the end of the Cretaceous (65 million years ago).
So, if you're think about dinosaurs like Allosaurus, Diplodocus and Stegosaurus, try Late Jurassic. If you think more about Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus or Ankylosaurus, Late Cretaceous is the time you're rather looking for.

The reason why Im wanting like a billion year old map is that I want a Distorted Earth Map for something, you might recognize this in the Ace Combat games in which Earth is entirely distorted.
^Thats the map I keep getting, I dont know why they just cant make a Blank map, its not really that hard.... But thank you anyway

1 billion years old?! There were nothing but single-celled lifeforms around 1 billion years ago, let alone dinosaurs.
In regard for paleogeography, there's no reliable maps until the latest Precambrian. You really really need to get your grasp of the stratigraphic table right...

If your standards are as you say, then I submit the following precise and exact map of the world during the period specified. I divined the contents myself.

But, but...you should care!
What and if I dont then whats going to happen? A giant rip of the space time continium?
*A Big Rip appears in the sky*
.......Fuck.
*Starts saying in a depserate mood*
All I need, is just a Blank Map of Pangea, Gondwana, a Distorted Earth, anything just blank and white
And to make things more detailed, I looked up Pangea and there wasn't any blank map of it
^ Wow, just wow... You sir are an artist
Can't you take one of the maps already provided and just make a blank map out of it? It's not that hard.
EDIT: Here. This took me about a minute.

Well, why did you ask in the first place? You really should have seen it coming when writing "dinosaur period" into the thread title, you know.
Quite old and in need of tidying up, but one of them should fit your needs.
