I guess my suggestion didn't make the cut:

Destructable Allied Vision Towers
Basically I'd like to see a map with dota style vision towers, so at the beginning of the game you can see a large proportion of your side of the map (but still enabling cheese play). This adds an extra level of strategy of destroying your opponent's towers to deny vision, while protecting your own.

Race Specific Maps
Alternatively I'd like to see what maps would look like if they were optimised for only one matchup (e.g TvZ) in a proleague format.
GraphicsThis is for all you new people: I only have one rule. Everyone fights. No one quits. You don't do your job, I'll shoot you myself. You get me?

keeping it non symetrical was quite a challenge but here is what I've made

I actually think both of the first 2 topic combinations could have worked - they'd no doubt be challenging, but definitely possible.

-3 player mirror symmetry was done a few times in BW, such as on the maps Rush Hour and Plasma.
-A main with a backdoor could be easily defendable if you add compensating features such as putting the main and backdoor chokes very close to each other, putting a high ground pod overlooking the backdoor which is accessible from the main, or even an in-main watchtower.

You need to link to the actual pictures, not an the imgur website.

An image will be in the format http://www.imgur.com/*.JPG/PNG/GIF, etc.

You can also upload pictures on TL using the "Upload Image" button on the top right of a reply window. This will upload the picture to imgur as the appropriate forum dimensions, and provide a preformatted link that you can post.

Just make a ton of interesting structures, shuffle them around, observe obscene imbalance, and rework

You could try a Fantasy style map combining 3 different popular pro maps. 2 problems though: the first is finding 3 maps with different base layouts that can be spaced out evenly across the map - at least one spawn will have to be away from the corner. The second is that you will be copying me, lol.

What if I make a fantasy map out of fantasy maps?

Fort Lawson
Originally called TORaD (Tactical Ordinance Research and Development), Fort Lawson was demilitarized, renamed and converted into a starship tech research and maintainance facility after its weapons research was declared unethical and prohibited by the Tarsonis Protocol of 2513 .

I don't have time to finish the aesthetics so here's my currently hideous-looking entry.

Amalgam
156x148
Published on NA (probably currently unplayable, I think I screwed something up)

Features/notes:
-Layout is beyond retarded
-Mains are the bases at the highest terrain level (the ones with about 5 seconds worth of texturing)
-All single geysers are rich
