Here's the map that I may use for the November Contest.
Btw, whenever I try uploading a picture onto WarBoards, I never can because the picture's too big. How can I get them onto here?

You have a picture from SCMdraft right? Open it with paint, and shrink it to around 700 by 700 or so (maybe a bit more) save it as a jpeg. I always get my picture by putting it on broodwarmaps.net but I'm pretty sure you can put it on here directly. Pretty sure. About the map, the minonly is tankable, fill up the holes or something. It also suffers from a lack of minerals. Don't make gasonly expos. Remove one or two and bring a couple to the minonly that's close to the mains. Add more expos in general. I'm not that good at island maps so ask others too.

I added more expos and made a little "pit" type of thing in the mains.

Yeah, that's why I just use microsoft picture editor or somethin to change the size and save it, and then use paint to save it as a jpeg.

Here's my thorough tutorial. Should be exactly what you need to get a pic.

Once you get the pic setup, I'll use paint to show you where to fix some things.

I have a program to resize my picture, but the attachment thing keeps telling me that the file size is too big.

That's because the original picture made by SCMDraft could be over 5000px in length/width. You need to scale it down to a more reasonable 850/800.
