On the bottom right corner there is a patch of grass that's on top of one of the trees.

1] There are a lot of errors.
2] It's plain. Maze or no, it has no substance to it. You used three tiles.
3] It's not much of a maze. Going straight north can practically get you through it.

I wanna thank you for at least explaining why you don't like it (unless, you like it because of those errors ;)   ).
now if only we could get some suggestions. I would give some, but I know nothing about mapping.

 :-\ lol i don't see any mistakes, as for going straight north that's easy because your looking at it zoomed out,

as for sayit it only has 3 layers, most pokemon maps have 3 layers!!! do your research!

The wooden barriers are not good. Each tile horizontal tile you used contains a bit of vertical barrier.
The grass is overlapping some trees.
The trees are not good. Some have even been ripped apart!

Correct your work, put some more variety of tiles, etc.

Wow you guys aren't the nicest people ever, he's just trying to show you his maps yea they have multiple mistakes but no need to bash him for it.

As for the maps they do need some fixing up you might wanna add a little more of a challenge to the maze its kinda plain and looks easy to get through. You might also want to check over the borders of the map like the tree with a patch of grass over it, and fix any other mistakes you find. Good luck  :)

It's true that we are not nice 100% of the time, but who is? In this instance, it is just poor luck that it looks so bad. I, for example, laughed at Kamaran's joke, and also asked people to explain why it wasn't a good map, since I can't, because I don't know how (I didn't say any of the mistakes Kamaran pointed out).

As for everyone else, it may be a cop-out answer, but we see people trying to do stuff like this all the time, and it tests our patience; we are all merely trying to have a few lols while we deal with them.

The best thing to do is not take our comments as insults; in most cases, it's not the individual that we don't like. Take what we say as a strange form of humor, and then learn from the feedback we give in addition.

I have teh humor. Spirit has teh lulz. Together, we form! Eh, I have no clue. But damn is it ugly.

Seriously, though. As spirit said, we actually (well, in mine and Kamaran's case) gave advice and ways to fix it as well. It's not a horrible map, trust me. I could show you some. But, it's passable at best. So, what's the best way to improve? Have others judge your work.

If it came off as insulting, that wasn't the intent. At least for me. I can't speak for everyone else.

But yeah. I'm not nice most of the time. I think we've been over this in IRC.

And... wouldn't you want a nearly flawless game? If so, that may be also why the team is trying to put high standards.

What bother me a bit with map is, that it looks plain. There's just grass in the maze, no pokeball-looking things that turn out to be items, no bushes, no small, maybe even cut trees...

But it's still a good map, I've seem worse, trust me.
