I know it's a bit plain but as my first one I just wanted to make sure I can make it put it in a file and get it up here. I'm an experienced gimp user(been awhile though) so as I go they'll get better. Maybe H4TE can help me out when he sees this :)

Yes you are right, the map looks a little bit plain. Propbably even to plain, to take it into testing area.
I think the path has some potential though. I looks really nice, maybe a little bit hard. But I think that we will see some nice games on the map.

But first of all you need to make a redesign of the background. I would really like to see a new design here quite soon. I am sure you can come up with something a little bit more spectecular. Also think about the green path. You should replace that for sure ;). Think about the green creeps ^^. At the moment you really don't see them at all.
Cheers Pezi.

I like TestRun3 most.
But I think you should remove 1px of the black line at the end of map, where 2 lines of path are.
The upper 1px-line has to be grey I think. Pls try that :D

Greetings

Thanks for the border tip. adding it now. I like how it adds a 3d effect as if the path under the picture. it will take another 20 mins to finish

Those darkorange fields are without any pattern...
Thos looks strange with the other fields I think.

Yeah I found it actually nice that they don't have any pattern. You wanna have them with pattern? I can easily redo them.

Good you like them. That's what I meant with "easy plain and nice design". Joker maybe you could try to recreate or redesgin your maps, with this style. It's nothing special but the maps look simply a little bit better and we get a higher standart concerning the mapdesign. Just old plain vectorgraphics don't look good anymore. We can call that the "new Vectorstyle" ;)

Edit: So if everybody approves of the map. I would give it a go. Of course ThexJoker you have to like it aswell!!

If everybody is happy with it. Here is the ZIP file.

Sry Seraph. Seems like I am out of practise. Here we go lowercase this time.

Well it's not my map afterall so. It's up to TexJoker to decide the mapname.
