Both of you... if you plan on doing your own graphics, you need to learn gimp. It is totally impossible to create adequate graphics on paint.

I don't think a house would work all that great but maybe something like a hostage situation at a bank or something could work. I dunno, its tough to come up with a good scenario without totally ripping off Supermax.

I can do the basics, but to get a really nice looking map, it would take someone willing to help with graphics. Can you point me in the direction of those willing to help with graphic-retarded folks like me?

I'm working on a comprehensive GIMP mapmaking tutorial. I haven't had time to work on it much what with all kinds of stuff to do but I'll try to finish it within the next week or so. I'm not promising anything though.
Meanwhile, a good place to start is the gimp online documentation: http://www.gimp.org/docs/

No it's not, you're just lazy.

Really, if your attention span is that short, then how do you expect to be able to produce a map, which usually takes around 6 months from start to end?
