but don't you need steam to make maps?
You do.
EDIT:
Unless you can access Source SDK without steam.
Steam is free, it's the games you buy that cost money. When you've bought the Orange box, you can use hammer for free as well, as a download from steam.

Well, this was a triumph.
I've been reading a bit, and although it seems mostly dead around here sometimes, I joined up.
I gots my portal on steam, and beat it a few times. Looking forward to playing some custom maps. I've played a few, and want to do more, but haven't the time right now.
Also, -AFTER- my save files were gone, I realized I never listened to the dev. commentary. So I'm replaying through the game, just for that.
Just thought I'd let you know, I'm the new guy.
Yes. Yes you are.

Seeing as msleeper is rebooting TWP (or attracting more traffic 
)I thought I'd help. Hey.
Mapping wise, I'm working on a map with turrets (it's fun - honest!), and if you ask me enough, I'll get it done. Also, I liek Portal.

Hi all, the names p0rtalplayer. noun-verb, with a little internet thrown in for the fun of it.
I solve practical problems. Not problems like "what is GLaDOS?" but problems like "How can I keep get my awesome maps to the world?"
Anyhoo, I hope the unfortunate name similarity between this and the official portal 2 site will help stir things up.
Attracting traffic is more appropriate. Though I'd say the real intention is making a nice soft landing cushion for the tidal wave of Portal 2 coming in February.
Either way, welcome!
