Good interview. Its cool to see the point of view from the mapmaker about the changes to Taldarim, and the influence blizzard had on it.

Great job on the interview. This inspired me to try and build maps myself.

haha, great! If you get stuck with the editor, check out the Custom Map forum and specifically the Simple Questions/Simple Answers thread. The folks in there are nice.

Great interview. I was really interested in map making in the beta and must say I've been disappointed with the lack of some features that Blizzard promised and some decisions they've made with the ladder pool. Nonetheless I hope to get back into it soon and hope that the map making community flourishes.

Very nice interview. Not familiar with the mapping community at all, so this provided good insight.

Korean map makers, please make desert/badlands maps too, and not just jungle/twilight/space maps

PLEASE!

Bel'Shir Beach is a good start.

Destructible Rocks were the best thing they could do to prevent mass expanding(like 14hatch-14hatch-14pool).

I thought the fact that it's actually a terrible opening in SC2 is what prevented three hatch before pool...

do the mapmakers get paid for their efforts by GSL, or is this a thankless job?

im going to guess no. Since all maps made are technically owned by blizzard they cant sell something they dont own.
