Map is nice looking but not that special. Can be used for small scale cinematic but cannot be used for other map genre because it is very small. If you are going to add some more units and other effects (doodads, props, etc) this will become crowded. I suggest you use UTM if you are going to submit a terrain template. As for this map, I guess rejection is my vote.

the terrain of the beach is cool and you can expand the area of the map which seems to help but i like the beach terrain and i bit useful on campaign maps and cinematic.

and a little bit out standing

This is really small and doesn't have much going on. I don't see any special landscaping effects or interesting tile/doodad combinations. The temple in the center is cool but it doesn't really have much to it either. I guess it's not bad or ugly, just really too simple.

I don't think this should be approved until it has a bit more added.

I might change some spots, but I guess it will stay the same size, and if I add some things, won't be too much. Because, as I said in the Map Info, it's just a tiny and simple terrain, for short cinematics, like a conversation in a meeting point...
But I'll see. Thanks by the suggestion anyway :)

When making a terrain template, you are making a resource for mapmakers to use in their maps. As with other resources, it needs to be useful. This template seems to have no uses besides for a cinematic interlude for a campaign. I strongly suggest you make this map bigger so you can increase its versatility.
The terrain doesn't even seem good enough to justify making such a small map. In my opinion, if a mapmaker is going to make a really small terrain template, it should have lots of work made into making the terrain feel immersive and breathtaking.
