This is one of the old melee maps I made.
What do you think of it?

I looks chaotic somehow. Looking closer at it, it is more balanced position wise than I'd have thought, but the total number of expansions is too much for 1on1. In 2on2, the tight middle will make the gameplay rather ugly probably. I think you just have to many elements for 128*128 in there, a mistake I made very often for my own maps at the beginning. Well you said it is an old map, so you probably do not want to change it very much, just start a new one if you want to make a very good map.

There really are too many expansions for a 1v1 game, but thats why there are 4 start locations! 
Try playing some computer players on the map, after they build through the tech tree and start expanding everywhere they can get totally out of hand. They enjoy all those resources immensely, especially the zerg.
I did move the minerals at the bases around a little, they were in... not so good places.
I can't really change the terrain much because: http://tinypic.com/5ds85j

I've actually played Xeno on this map (Xenomaniac on SEN). it was a 1v1, the gameplay wasn't to bad, but there's just a little TOO much on this map. But nice job anywayz!
