Nice. I like the flowery area across the bridge.
Have you got any plans for the houses (EDIT: and the cave)?

Sorry, but a map which does not attach to any existing map does not fit into the game.

Re: [FND] and tested. HunUbi's First MAP!
First of all, I don't want to give you any false hope. An overworld map which was not planned beforehand has little to no chance to get into the game. Our policy is to plan the world expansion carefully before commissioning maps to ensure that the whole world is consistent and gives a well-conceptualized impression. What I am writing is some critique to help you to become a better mapper and create a better map in the future when there is actually need for one.
1. When I tried to load the map in Tiled it didn't load. I immediately found the reason when I took a look at the file in a text editor. The paths to the tilesets was ../tmwdata/graphics/tiles/. It should have been ../graphics/tiles/. You can avoid this problem by following the hierarchy of the tmwdata and create your maps in its map folder. Was easy to fix with a simple string replace though.
2. I also noticed that you included tilesets like cave_bilevel.png without using them. Also not really an issue, but please avoid this in the future because it is wasting memory.
3. And now for the first really serious problem: As you can see in the mapping guidelines [Link] all maps for TMW need an unwalkable 20 tiles border. The reason is that the scrolling stops when the player character gets close to the map border. We want to avoid this effect to make the player less aware of map limits.
4. Another violation of the mapping guidelines is the map size: Your map is 63x100, the required size for maps in the woodland region is 150x120. Following this guideline is important because it allows to organize the maps in an uniform grid pattern.
5. The woodland village tileset has horizontal fence tiles. You needn't place a row of single pylons to emulate it.
