Palace Mapping Contest (burn Nexuiz with eyecandy)
Make palaces for nexuiz. Use all the eyecandy you can think of. Reflections in frenchdoor style mirrors! Majestic gardens. Vaulted celings. Marble columns.

Some opensource texture packs which can help due to marble content:

Best to choose a style (Baroque, Rococo, Gothic, Frankish, Fantasy, etc).
Maps will be juged on how they express the style, and how good they look, and how fun they are to play on fast rigs with good GFX cards (no points taken away for slow downs), and how imaganitive they are (does it inspire?). Judges all who wish to take a look at the maps (can't vote for one's own though).

Heh got inspired by the ONS Speed mapping contest, huh? Nice idea, I hope everybody will post a lot of screenshots when their map is ready :o)

Maybe these eygptian textures can help as well.
