Created an example for you that runs on a periodic timer so it will trigger as long as you have a baneling in each of the regions.
Trigger
Events
Timer - Every 5.0 seconds of Game Time
Local Variables
Conditions
(Unit type of (Unit 1 from (Baneling units in Region 001 owned by player (Triggering player) matching Excluded: Missile, Dead, Hidden, with at most Any Amount))) == Baneling
(Unit type of (Unit 1 from (Baneling units in Region 002 owned by player (Triggering player) matching Excluded: Missile, Dead, Hidden, with at most Any Amount))) == Baneling
Actions
Unit - Create 1 Mutalisk for player 1 at MutaliskSpawnPoint using default facing (No Options)
If you just want it to happen once for each time you bring a baneling into the regions you'll have to use a "unit enters/leaves region" event and switch out one of the conditions for a "unit type of triggering unit == baneling", and duplicate and edit the trigger so you'll have one trigger with conditions for each of the regions.
timed events are terrible NEVER use them they are NOT dependable on Battle net. and they will never work when you need them to if they error on battle net at all for any reason, battle net will disable it and your trigger will be useless. not to mention the lagg involded with everyone in the game having a timed event that goes off every .5 seconds.
submissions can be e-mailed to me [email protected] in case you do not have dropbox or filefront to PM the download link. to make it clear it is required to have the 3d model to me in some form whether it be map or a 3d file extension in order for your entry to be valid. I did make it clear that i was running the contest for the models.
thanks =) you get to see it first hand tomorrow, i have not tested it with people so there is a very good chance it is going to blow up and die tomorrow and ill have to do several tests. i hope the bug list is not that big lol.
I created my own functions to destroy the dialogs and re-create them. if you want it to loop the dialogs back open do not destroy them re-open the with the show/hide dialog in the dialog section of the functions. and this is a viable IU with just show/hiding if its only for 1 player. Otherwise you have to create custom functions to re-create the menu every time to player click the menu button and destroys the menu when the player closes the menu.
oh also you need to create a dialog for each player with their own array assignments. and the buttons on those dialog boxes with their own array assignments or you are going to have players opening and closing the same dialog box on each others screen. You should also destroy these boxes instead of hiding them for 2 reasons, memory (you are limited by 2.5megs) and if any information updates on the dialogs you need to re-create it so that updated information is reflected in the dialog. so make a function that creates the players dialog and another that destroys it to simulate open/close.
With dialogs, it is ALSO a pain in the ass, if one wants to create text at a x,y position, the only features available are; Button (this works, but is limited (50 MAX BUTTONS AT A TIME)/Unassigned Dialog (which is useless, cause if you destroy all dialogs (turn them off), GG).
you can create as many buttons as you want, you are using screen buttons under the UI category witch you should never use because those display for every player (unless you intend to have a static button available at all times for players). you need to use the dialog button and embed the button in your dialog box. If you intend for this system to have more than one player you will need to re-work it.
well the test is basically just going to be party functionality. inviting people, leaving a party passing party lead, and kicking people. also to see how the interface reacts to it.
i am having a lot of trouble with this right now and may need to push the test back i cannot get the drop down to work correctly, for some reason only the player you are currently can be clicked on so im looking into that. after this but it should be ready for player test.
Hey guys here is my attempt at a video tutorial on importing pictures using the trigger editor and sound using the data editor to your map. these techniques should give you the knowledge to import almost any type of supported data in your map =). enjoy.

nice work i am also in the process of creating a complete custom ui. It's looking good.
you can create as many buttons as you want, you are using screen buttons under the UI category witch you should never use because those display for every player (unless you intend to have a static button available at all times for players). you need to use the dialog button and embed the button in your dialog box. If you intend for this system to have more than one player you will need to re-work it.
also, you can create 2d test anywhere on the dialog box using the (label) function under the dialog category and here is a good list of different fonts.

Here is an example of my UI:
