Can we have any details on how the game is going to run? In particular I'm wondering if there's any decision on models that will be used in the game (i.e. the players units, what type of enemy units there may be). I have trouble drawing stick figures, let alone anything worthy of being a loading screen, but I might be able to do some work with sc2 units, or even wc3 units.
You saw right, I'm very happy to announce a competition which gives you a chance to win a StarCraft 2 Beta key.
Contest Details
The challenge is simple - make a loading screen based on my upcoming Run Kitty Run map.

Designing a loading screen for a beta key is a good investment. If there are two really good entries we (sc2mapster) may provide a second beta key.
Good luck to all participants :)
Do we have to draw a cat ourselves or are we free to use pictures we find around the web?
@Kimphoe: Go
As long as the work isn't copyrighted it should be fine.
The loading screen, however, does not have to have a cat on it.

@agweber: Go
Haven't decided on models yet, sorry. It will be unit models from starcraft2 so feel free to inspire me with your loading screen :D
Can we use Starcraft artwork that blizzard supplies?
@gardenofaiur: Go
Yes
Do you want it to literally involve cats? lol. I'm hoping not :p
I would take the "Catch me if you can" movie concept, and replace the human with a cat. Then make the title "Run, Kitty. Run"
I already have a beta ket though, and I have finals this week T_T
I understand this; so do I. But somehow I'm going to fit SC2 into my schedule, as well as building a new computer to be able to play it!
@gardenofaiur: Go
As long as you have the title and relate it somewhat to the map theme then you can do what ever you want with it.
Doing final papers right now >.<
Thoughts?
@gardenofaiur: Go
It looks nice! How do you get special font like that?
@TDelamay: Go
Couple different sites provide free fonts, http://www.dafont.com/ is a good one.
After looking at garndeofaiur's loadscreen I feel mine pales in comparison.

Meh, I can always remake something more to my liking later when I have time.
Win.
I'll be entering, I've just got to get some skills back at GIMP/PS.
hope you like it = )
I made the little roach+hydra+lings, the little kitty for you.
imo this is by far the best.
i really like this simplicity, but it stil has style! kinda old school!
Really like it :)
Last day, get your entries in if you haven't!
