EL_BASTARDO you and other are right on the part you really can't make a rating on the base on Image or screen-shots of a map there has to be a map tester and the member best can handle this part it be more fair to all.
if you like to have map testers for this site i be glade to fill this area. Not map team ether "Map Tester" has to be bayous from out-side source. one fact i have all the games DF1/2/LW/TFD/BHD-TS and JOTR.
you can have a team call: "NovaHq.net testers" were they all do check out maps for error badly made and how great they are made up. or a cheaper way have the Novahq.net members score only.

It's kinda like an estimate, sure we could be wrong but we also let users rate and add comments about maps, been a few months since we started that since we no longer review them.. Click on 'A closer look' under the map.
Maybe we can add the users rating to the mapdb next to our general rating. How does that sound?

==============??????????????????================
5 star map. This map was well built and took a long time. The objects are well in place. It has custom objects and great atmosphere.
4 star map. This map is also great, it has the atmosphere, nicely placed objects, and was difficult to make.
3 star map. This is an average map, meaning we get a lot like it. That dose not mean the map is not good, well placed objects, ok atmosphere, but lacks a few things.
2 star map. This map anyone could have made. It has floating buildings and/or no atmosphere.
1 star map. This map lacks everything. There is no atmosphere and/or only a few objects, floating or badly placed.
===========================================
think every one should not look at the Staff rating system for the maps do to they looking at the image of it not see as it really is.
it is better to look at what other user rated as then the staff.
