When you go to create a game on B.net...
You are in a file called "Download", you have to either leave
that file first (Scroll to the top and double-click the folder)
or place the map/folder in to the "Download" folder.

Please don't double post. (I fixed it for you)

Anyways...
Try making a new folder and placing them in that.
Then when you go to create a game, scroll to the very top of the list,
the file will be in there, then open it up, the maps should be in there.

Hence what he was saying about some of the maps having different extensions, and the icons looking different. XD
