So I've been a bit busy, and I will continue to be busy for a short time. It's about time I started adding new maps to the server again, but I don't want to do that without a way for people to give me opinions back. I'm currently redesigning the maps section, but I'm going to be too busy, so I'm asking for some help. Finding images and writing descriptions for maps is time consuming, and it's not something that I specifically have to do. If you guys could do this for me, that'd be great.
Below is a list of maps on the server. Please find/create an appropriate image that showcases a key area in the map, 800x600 pixels. Please no HUD elements, players, or anything like that. Host it somewhere relatively stable (any big image-hosting site). Write a description of the map, starting with the most basic -- "Dustbowl is an Attack/Defend style control-point map, featuring three stages with two points each. In this map, BLU is attacking the points, while RED is trying to stop BLU from capturing, blah blah blah" -- and progressing to more specific areas, like describing each individual point. Post it below, one map per post, using the following layout:
The map type for every CP map where players switch teams is "Attack/Defend". If players don't switch teams, it's just "Control Points." Map Name always refers to the name of the map, not the name of the file. cp_badlands would be listed as
Please post your description pages below, one map per post. Thank you very much.

Description goes here. Please separate into paragraphs as necessary, and run a quick spell-check to make sure everything looks nice.
"Please post your comments about" (mapname) "below."
