				@CM 
Color the fog..please. Seeing the default grey makes my eyes hurt   
Also, you may want to fix the min/max distances of visibility for the fog; you don't want the player to be able to see how much it cuts into adjacent objects from 2 meters away. Try to make it fade out before then so the player doesn't see and strange visuals like that.
 
Also, make your billboards a bit darker (in color). (In the second screen shot for instance) you're not supposed to be able to see the shape of 1 billboard.

  Set fraps to .bmp and then use photoshop to save it in a maximum quality .jpeg :>

				My biggest concern is your billboards, the massive blob of blue at the end looks very ugly and unnatural, the area that's closest to the source of light that the billboards are coming from should be the area that's the brightest. They should also be a little bit more transparent, as light rays in real life aren't that bright (you can achieve this by simply lowering all the sliders in the color select menu down about .3). I can also see a few areas where the fog particles are clipping into the walls/ceiling/floor of the map, you can fix this by either just moving them around so they don't collide with anything (obviously) or edit the start/end distance on them so you can't get close enough to see it (learned that trick from Andy). Also, you should color the particles to fit better with the overall light of the area it's in, in this case I'd say go for a very dark brown on them. Throwing in a few pointlights might also help, since as it is it doesn't seem like that lamp/the window are lighting up much.

The candles on the statues are unnecessary, other than that, good map.
