Stigma is currently working on a new map called Decaying City.
It's a mid size, urban style, map which includes single player props and weather effects for the mods that support them. There are lots of buildings to frag in and a main feature of the map appears to be a gas station.

Several years ago {GT}Bloody released a map called Bloodyfresh.
Now in 2008 the map has been revised. Basically it is a one room map, featuring two levels, with two ramps from the ground to the second level.
The upper level features walkways around the sides and ones that leade to a central area where you will find armour and the HMG. The lower level also has a cetral feature where you will find more armour and the cooling mod.
The map features a great deal of lava in the railings of the walkways, in the colunms that support the ceiling and in some geometric shapes suspended i nmid air.
There are 10 player spawns, ample weapons, items and armour and all custom textures.

You can download Bloodyfresh 2008 from here.
