I just wanted to pre-Post a Melee map I am remaking. The original one was made in Ash, and I have yet to see a remade one in .SCX format with one made In ICE. (If there is one, Please let me know). I am using Staredit to make it.
(8)Plains of Snow '08Size: 192x192
Tileset: Ice
Type: Melee
Suggested Players: 2-8
Description: The once ash covered plains are now coated in snow.

You picked a pretty bad map to remake. Protip: all Blizzard melee maps are garbage, so you shouldn't bother using them as inspiration. Also, not sure what the purpose of this map is -- it's literally the same Blizzard map, but in a different tileset. You might want to try making original maps that you can apply your mapping knowledge to, rather than just remaking the same simple maps over and over again.

this was made.... back in 2008 when i started to redraw maps....
Then why put any effort into publicising it? Work on new things, forget the old, unless there's something you can learn from it (and the only lesson I'm seeing here is to avoid working with Blizzard's own maps).

Is it wrong for me to want to upload the map?
Not everyone has a narrow view on what they think is worthy/unworthy. It's a playable map, I wanted to upload it to SEN since I didn't get to in the past. What's the real issue here?
EDIT: Personally I like this map, that's why I redrew it. How do I know others do not like this map?
well I don't, least not until I upload it, they download it, and then they say "I played it, I didn't like it".
but it all starts with my having to want to upload it to begin with.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
