Nope sorry, can't change the archive or there is a good chance of desyncs, especially now that the lobby runs md5 on map archives.
@ the p.s., lol I do try

The page you are trying to reach is unavailable. Maybe it was removed or renamed.
nope... it's there.
@zorbawic
Downloading it is a choice. I am not attempting to force anyone to download it.
it doesnt download for moi

try downloading with IE/firefox as opposed to the AOL or MSN browser.

A Vladost can move around almost the enitre map, sometimes with a bit of micro for the higher parts. All 3 races can climb the centre with their respective lvl1 main unit (Moon, Reaver, Vladost).
This does look
very nice.

The AOL/MSN browser is actualy IE, its just embedded in a fancy GUI

if you read the bestsharing forums, that site has particular issues with the AOL browser showing a 404 when attempting to download.
Thanks for the info AUN

it works for everyone else...
In IE try not using save target as, just click the link and what happens? same thing?
Try downloading google accelerator and try to get it thbat way. Google accelerator routes your connection through a proxy owned by google, so if there are DNS errors between you and bestsharing, google accelerator is a very simple way to get around them.

I'm saying that I'm a 1600x1200 so it doesn't stretch the page for me.

I'd say the majority of users run at resolutions smaller than that foreboding, and the fact is you created content for the community, therefore you must present it accordingly.
I keep wanting to say something nice but I get dragged away from it by giant images and page stretches which annoy me greatly sapping me of any wish to post soemthing about the map...

Although I'm not too keen on maps of the yellow/orange variety, this one looks nice, makes me want to start mapping

why not use the thumbnails imageshacks provides??
so we can see to what kind of image the link takes us.

EDIT: a 6th post about it got in while I was typing that sentance... im half expecting a ban now tbh.
