    THIS MAP HAS BEEN STOLEN.
    MAP THEFT IS BAD.
    DON'T DO IT, MMMKAY.
    TexturedSun

    A map made by sploder360, 2 bases, one creek drench in the middle, fantastic merging and forging.

    Sorry , no pics yet. But the map is on my file share and the pics soon will also.

    But watch the video of the map while we were testing the map.

    Alright, it has come to this. A pictured tutorial on how to embed your Halo 3 screenshots of your map, in your post. I see too many people post maps without pictures, not knowing how, and then members try to explain. So I made this:

    Embedding Screenshots in your Map's Thread

    Part 1: Taking a screenshot.

    Sorry, no pictures for this section, don't have a capture card, but it is soo easy, I shouldn't need to explain, but I will.
    1. After recently playing your map, go to "Theater Mode".
    2. Select the match you played, and "Start Film".
    3. Press "Y" after film has started, and pause the game (or not), and position your camera.
    4. Click the camera symbol on the navigation bar.
    5. Save it.
    6. Now onto...

    Part 2: Getting your screenshot off of Bungie.

    1. Open up your Internet Browser (I use Firefox) and go to our dearly belovedBungie.net, and go to My Stats/Find a Player.


    2. Then, go to the right of the screen, to "People Finder". Make sure that it is set to Halo 3, and type in your Xbox-Live Gamer tag. Then click "Search"


    3. You should then being on your Gamer Tag profile. Go to and click "Hi-Res screenshots".


    4. Find the Screenshot you wish to embed, and click on it. Also, make sure pop-ups are allowed from Bungie.net.


    5. A large version of the screenshot should come up in a separate window. Again, click the screenshot.


    6. This should come up, asking you what program to open the screenshot with, or to save it to disk. For simplicities sake, just check off "Save to Disk" and the click "OK".


    7. Depending what your preferences are, the picture could be saved to a number of places, if you are using Firefox, then this should come up. Click "Open" on the top one, which is more than likely the screenshot you are looking for.


    8. An image viewing program displaying the screenshot should come up. Click the save option, in this case a floppy disk icon.


    9.Save your image as a JPEG file, under a folder and name you can find later. Type the name in and click "Save".


    10. Congrats, now you have your screenshot on your computer. Now onto:

    Part 3: Signing up for a Photobucket account, and uploading your screenshot to the internet.

    1. Start by opening your internet browser, and going to Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket. Why Photobucket? Cause I find that Imageshack is a pain and people seem to get nothing but thumbnail pictures from it, if they do try to embed their screenshots. Once there, click "Join Now" cause IT'S FREE!


    2. Type in a username, and a password that you can remember. Then click "Next Step".


    3. Now fill the form out, when you are done, click "I accept. Sign me up!"
    Note that none of that information is true to me. That is not my name, or birthdate, or anything.


    4. Follow instructions from there.

    5.Go to Login on Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket, type in your username and password, and then click "Login".


    6. You should now be in your album. Find the section in the middle of the screen like the one below, and click "Choose Files", and make sure the size is set to 640x480.


    7. An "Open File" window comes up. Now find your screenshot where you saved it, click on it, and then click "Open". Note that you can select more than one image before click "Open" by clicking your first image, and then (while holding down the SHIFT key) click on the other images you wish to add.


    8. Give it time to save the screenshot on the internet. Click "Cancel" to stop uploading.


    9. When it is done, this screen will come up. Give it a title and a description, or just skip that, and click "save and continue"


    10. And now your screenshot is on the internet, ready to be embedded.

    Part 4: Embed your image in your post.

    1. Go to your "my albums" on your photobucket page, which is located in the top navigation bar. Then, scroll down the page until you find your screenshot.


    2. Click on the text in the space next to "IMG Code". This will automatically copy that link to your clipboard.


    3. Go to post your Map Thread, and right click/Paste the IMG code (an image code is the direct link url of an image, in between [./img], but without the ".")


    4. Yay!



    Well, I hope this was helpful to those who had no idea how to embed their screenshots before. And those who find themselves telling newcomers that their Map Threads are not up to standards without pics, send them this way.

    Muy bien, very good! I saw the video and the map is pretty accurate, it has a very similar feel and in some instances looks better than the original. The base design is pretty good and the bowl in the center of the map was very creative. This doesn't need the pictures (unless people out there have really slow internet connection. Also, you might want to add in a better description, even if you haven't put up your pictures yet. 4.8/5, it can't beat the Beaver/Battle creek remake but this map will have people looking twice before they look at other maps.

    Here at forgehub we don't take kindly to map theft. This map is called ABODES by KON ARTIST, and you've obviously hi-jacked it. Have fun getting pwned by the mods.

    Welcome to ForgeHub.

    What the heck are you talking about? I looked at Kon Artist's threads and he doesn't have a map called Abodes. Splodes, the map looks like a cool remake and it's a good thing you interlocked the double boxes as the ground because otherwise it would be bumpy. Great map, nothing I can see wrong with it. 5/5

    Welcome to Forgehub. The only bad thing in this post is that you did not add pics and you need pics for a map post on Forgehub. Other than that, your map is extremely awesome. This is one of the best beaver creek remakes I have seen so far. The gameplay also looks fun. Good job.

    Well... welcome to forgehub! If there really is proof you stole this map, shame on you. If, however, these presumptuous bastards are all wrong, and you managed to make this by yourself, then good job. i can tell alot of time was put into this map, and for all you know, i'll download it! Really though, nice map.

    Ewok2870 will not download your map.

    Not true havnt you read any of the threads for the map... I made it myself, The reason why sploder360 joinded is because he is one of my friends on the same street, and I told him about forge hub.

    That map looked awesome! I don't remember Beaver Creek but that looked like a very interesting map. I liked the bowl in the middle and the little underground area. I also liked the placement of the teleporters because that couldn't have been any better. Also, where does the rocket launcher spawn? Some more info on the map would be better and some pics of the areas we didn't see would be nice too. I saw no flaws in this map at all. The gameplay even looked fun. I don't do this that often but 5/5!
