You're doing okay for your first map.

First, instead of making a second post in a row, use the Edit button beside your name (if it's the last entry in a topic) to revise your first post.

Second, I think you'll want to put up some walls on all sides of the map. If not, when you approach the edge of the map, it will look like you're looking off the edge of a cliff.

Third, if you don't like any of the half-life sky textures, Google for "half-life sky texture" or similar. There're lots of textures available on the web. You may find a wad file to download that contains a texture you like. Else you'll have to use Wally or some similar program to create your own wad.

If you haven't already, be sure to read the tutorial on Environment http://twhl.co.za/tutorial.php?id=6

Vlatitude has a thumbnailed list of skies which will likely help you actually pick a sky name once you know how to.

Doesn't look at all bad for a first map, although it's a bit difficult to make it all out.

Skies don't come in .wad files :

Also, for gods sake insert grammar into your 'sentances'

It took me far longer than it should have done to read your post(s)

thanks for the help. Ya i definatly think stuff around the edges will make it look better. I'm gonna put like rocks and little hills on the side i guess
