Best place to ask would be the Mapping section of the boards m8.

I'll move this now and hopefully you'll get some feedback.;)

****Moved to Mapping****

The Totorials and Q&A section at the top of the mapping forum will give you information that you need to get started. It's not too difficult to make a map, it just takes lots of time and patience. Oh yes, and creativity if you want it to stand out from the rest of the maps out there.

Most people would recommend u not to release a first map but its ur map not mine...

There are two golden rules u ought to now:

1. Never release a first map
2. Swedish chicks are sluts

you can find a tutorial for this, but i can explain it pretty quickly. Make a brush that looks like a ladder, and make it func_wall or func_illusionary. I'm doing this from memory, but i think in the properties box it says render mode, change that to solid, and underneith it i forget what it says, but put 255 for the number. Then make another brush on top of the first with the aaatrigger texture and make it a func_ladder
