TheFish's Map Portfolio

I've been "mapping" for quite a while. The first time I opened a map editor was for a game called Stunts, which was a DOS game on floppy disk way back in the day. When i began I was just a kid, and what fascinated me most was the ability to create my own games for myself and others to play. I've made maps for Warcraft 2, Heroes of Might & Magic 3, Starcraft, and Counter-Strike 1.6 before a long hiatus. In Starcraft 2 it is the first time I've taken it seriously, thinking about competition on my maps beyond just having fun on them. My parents are both architects and I work in Finance so maybe that is part of why I am driven to create these things.

I've made so many maps now that I have to take one down each time I want to put a new one up on Bnet. I also don't always make threads for my maps anymore. I kept finding myself thinking "I should make a thread for that map". So I've decided to try and list them all here and keep it updated as I go.

To be added...

If you made it this far, thanks for stopping in. I also want to apologize for bitching quite a bit about "non-standard" maps vs. "standard" maps on these forums. No harm intended, much love to this community. I wouldn't be having so much fun and probably wouldn't be doing this if not for all of you. I'll be shifting my focus to arcade maps in the future, probably only will return if a tlmc 3 comes about or perhaps in lotv. I'll be chronicling my struggles with the data editor here if I can find enough time to work on my maps.
