No events or anything whatsoever, just some units placed on the map and you just have to kill units.
The zombies don't move around either and there are barely any triggers whatsoever, like gameplay systems, ...
The terrain is also bad, you've placed random doodads, hundreds of bombs across a wall and magical runes all of over the map for no reason.

Also a preview image?
To add a preview image, resize the image to 256x256 or 128x128 using gimp and save it as .tga. Import the image and change its path to 'war3mapPreview.tga'.

You can actually use Print Screen in your keyboard to directly take screenshots from your computer =D

I tried, but my comp can't find 'em. Plus, when I tried that before, it wouldn't appear on a page.

Hmm, what exactly do you mean, your computer can't find them? You don't know where the screenshots end up after you take them, or something else? When you take a screenshot in Wc3, they end up in the screenshots foler in your Wc3 directory.

Anyway, this map looks like it might interest me. I'll give it a try, after I take a nap.

use this program, its called Irfanview, this tool can really help reveal screenshots and pictures instead of that really awful photo shoot, no offense but good luck with your map making

You could just open paint, then go back to wc3 and print screen, then go back to paint on ctrl+v or paste.

OK, I tested it by myself and here's what I think:

Good things about your map:

• It's can be fun killing hordes of zombies sometimes.
• Sometimes the zombies seem to just come around the corner, adding the element of fear to the map.
  
  

Bad things about your map:

• Some of the hotkeys don't work, at all. (Marine Drop)
• When the Captain shoots, you can see the rifleman's impact effect on his gun, instead of at the target.
• Nothing in the quest log, thus players may be unsure of what to do at the start of the game. You should put information about the game, in-game about what to do and how to play.
• Zombies are way too weak.
• What's the deal with those Zombie Summoners that don't summon any zombies?

Overall:

Well, I'm always using hotkeys on about every map and in every game and I'm sure others do to, so that's something you need to fix. I do find some zombie maps entertaining though (until you die due to all of the zombies that eventually swarm the screen). Overall, I give it a 2.5/5 (3/5) and a +rep.​
