Wanna Help out on the servers?
We always are looking for people to submit pictures of maps for the main page and server monitor page. Ever wonder why when you go to joe.to the top of the screen has a bunch of boxes saying "image not found?"
If you want to help out a bit please go to http://www.joe.to/servers/maps.php?id=3 and look at the maps which have no image. If you have the map, go to tf2, start a lan server. open up the console and type "bind f5 jpeg" this will stop you from having to convert from the epic tga format to post them. then type Also, "cl_drawhud 0" so that the pictures don't have target reticles or ammo gauges. using "sv_cheats 1 and sv_noclip 1" or whatever get to a spot with a good view of the map and take a screenshot by pressing f5.
Then upload the file to somewhere like imageshack and post the link to the image here along with the name of the map, and then hopefully we can add the thumbnails to the maps so that people can know what maps are based upon both picture and name while browsing our website.

Re: Wanna Help out on the servers?
I'm just bored enough to do this :P
I'll start from the bottom of the list (the_hunted_beta1) and work up, and will post a link to everything when done.
edit: cleaned up previous edits.
To remove the weapon model: r_drawviewmodel 0
Random notes:
tag_yard - which happens to have some cool extra rooms hidden
pl_dynamite2 - has a completely different half of the map that starts and ends in the same place? Cool.
cp_treehut - both versions still on list
Won't touch:
cp_studio - That map should be removed fully by now.
Super update:
I believe I've finished taking the screenshots. Now I just have to rename them and create thumbnails. I might have missed a map or two. Not sure yet.
confirmed done: just have to batch convert now

Ice my hand!
Alright! It's finally done! Nearly 3 hours of work.

(It's rapidshare, but it should be an instant download, no waiting or filling stuff in. Magic)

If you guys add new maps, and are too lazy to do screenshotting, just let me know.

Re: Wanna Help out on the servers?
Ok. I updated the front page of the wiki a little bit. I added all the l4d servers. I updated the tf2 servers info. but I did not create pages for the l4d servers, mainly because I do not know how to.
I'm a young and grumpy teenager that is always complaining about the world, but is too lazy to do anything about it.

Update: Three more maps just showed up. I don't have phoenix yet, and I can't find it online, so that'll wait.
