Thanks. 8) What maps has he made? I like odd ones.
Do you plan on making more like this?

I currently have five maps lined up (plus mods). One of them will definitely have a visual style similar to Hook Race. But my next map will be a return to the RustVents style — but it'll be a smaller map, more suited for the number of players commonly on the nex servers.

FIX IT!

The point of the preview images is (or should be) to let the players have an image that can be used to know what map they're voting for — not so they can view and learn the map before voting for it. It doesn't matter what that image is — a screenshot, an overview of the map, or a child's drawing — as long as it's fairly unique and easily recognizable. And a logo-like image is often easier to recognize than a random screenie. IMHO, of course.

Umm... I'd still prefer screenshots.
Still, keep in mind that
a) the name is usually displayed seperately anyway
b) if you make screenshots, use default brightness and fov settings

Actually, I NEVER played that map except once. Each time it got voted and I was playing, I just took that match off as a spectator and went and did other things, like eating. I have my music always either turned off or set incredibly low so that I barely hear that. But I hear this map had some weird "music" in it.

Now perhaps, I will play this map.

PS. I like to have my eyes and ears kept intact.

Oh come on... the non-cured version is still a good match!
You don't always need some super-modern-shiny-texturing in maps. IMO we NEED some maps like eyecancer :) (some!)

and I never play with in-game music...

I generally left the server altogether. Eyecancer was totally unplayable for me. I could see anything and the "music" was unbelievably annoying. Too bad. I think it could have been a fun map if it hadn't been for the way it looked and sounded.

Afraid not. Despite how I feel about the original version, I've decided to remove the map out of respect for Cortez. (see the edited version of my OP)

No, of course not. But the players need to be able to see what they're doing. And it's hard to play with your fingers jammed in your ears.. ;)

Nothing wrong with the occasional joke level (eyeccancer, suicide booth, augenkreibe), but notice how very rarely they get played once the joke gets old?
