This is a a discussion topic for the map "DM_WinterChill_r3" by FENIX which can be found here

Map description:

So, my friends, the time to release this map oficially has finally come. The map is a remap of cpm20 "WinterChill"
map by Rich "swelt" Jacques from Quake 3 CPMA.
The map differs from Q3 version by geometry, optimization, items respawns, lighting and more...

First time i want to make some crappy simple map or this one, specially for hl2dm-university.ru, but in less quality,
spent less time on it. But i became interested in mapping, started to learn things, texturing, modeliing and stuff

). There were a lot of problems and queations about lighting, textures, reflections, etc., but i've solved

everything, and now you can enjoy the result

...

This looks like a really amazing map that had quite a bit of time and effort put into it. -And I would love to download it and review it, But seeing as it is posted here on The SnarkPit, I wonder why it wasn't given an actual Map 'profile'?

-Do you not realize about our maps database? -Adding it automatically gives you a thread about it in the map's forum, and it will keep track of how many downloads it may get, plus (and I can already see you have plenty of hosting options) but we'll even host your download for free! -Uploaded screenshots and the map itself will remain on the Pit for as long as we're around, and it ensures players in the future will always be able to download your map any time.

Adding it to the database also helps get you noticed on the front page of the site; allows people to search for your map using our map's database search features (allowing them to find it more easily). Helps get you direct feedback with ratings scales that feedback into our point system which in turn can help unlock little features to help get you involved within our community more easily.

-All I'm saying is, it's fine that you simply created a forum post about it, but you'll be missing out on all these great features that make SnarkPit different from the rest of the sites. I'll make it easy for ya too: If you create a new profile for this map, I'll transfer all the posts that may incur in this thread over to your map's profile thread so that everything can be updated and you won't miss a beat (and users won't get confused seeing 'two' threads about the same map). You'll have an updated official map thread going for it. And it'll be in the same place.

-I'll download and review it once I know what you'll be doing with the map!
-It's easy, just go to your control panel (at the top) click the 'maps' tab and then click 'add map' and fill in all the info! Easy as that!

-Oh and BTW, Glad to have you on the SnarkPit!

This looks pretty awesome, (especially for a first map) I hope we'll see more work from you in the future?

=====================================[UPDATED]=====================================
-For other reader's sake, I moved it now and merged the two into the official thread.
