I'm beginning to make a map which is going to be of the 'urban persuasion'. At this point I'm not sure I'll release it yet, because I have doubts about whether it will be recieved warmly or not, but supposing it does turn out nice looking, I wanted to know: Would people prefer the size to be 16x8 or 20x10? Please vote, any input will be appreciated.

Make sure you learn how to model like a sane person before you make your features.

hehe, I haven't forgotten what you said to me, DB.
A little more about the map: I'm making no promises to anyone. Don't have any expectations or anticipations for it, because it will not be normal.
I also understand that there are people who dislike symmetrical maps, so I'll try to make it assymetrical on the small/tactical level.

20x10. 16x8 is like half the size of a 16x16.
16x8 is exactly half the size. I know.

i also agree 20x10 is what looks good for a urban map.
too small doesnt sound nice for urban map.

Now we have UV mapped models, we can make some cool looking buildings.

I'll give a stab at some buildings, 20th~21th century style since I want a cool city for WD...maybe i'll add cars to it that can be rezzed and people can posses them and do drive by shootings in them :P
