Screenshots? Also, don't bother zipping your download, it'll be smaller if you use bsp_repack then upload the repacked bsp
e: I downloaded this, and it's your entire /mapsrc/ folder, with the BSP, VMF, and everything else. Use bsp_repack, then upload only the file from /tf/maps/. Also, use naming conventions! Don't call it "crashlanding" because that tells nobody anything. If it's arena, put that at the start. If it's a1, put that at the end. "arena_crashlanding_a1" is way more informative and easier to remember.

Double post but who cares
I downloaded and had a run around. From spectator mode, I couldn't work anything out. It looks to be two massive yards:

connected to a point by a custom texture that you didn't pack

The skybox is also glitchy as hell, with floating error signs and rockets that bug out when you get near them:

Also, if you're using transparent textures make the brushes 1 unit thick or nodraw the other sides, because otherwise you get this:

You might be able to save it but the layout looks just too simplistic and overscaled to actually work well.

No problem :D In an alpha, don't bother with using custom stuff because you'll be iterating much quicker than in beta or RC, so it's not worth packing everything in

The folder you've uploaded is the entire file. It does contain the BSP, but it also has the VMF, LIN and LOG files. In TF2, do "bsp_repack tf/maps/arena_crashlanding_a2 tf/maps/arena_crashlanding_a2" then go to your tf/maps folder and upload the BSP there. Please use version names and identities, so "arena_" because it's an arena map and "_a2" because it's A2, making the name of the VMF you should upload "arena_crashlanding_a2". There's a reason everyone else does it this way - it lets people running your map see what kind of map it is and where it is in development without having to load it up. Also, don't use capital letters in your filenames, they break Linux servers.
