You only need a top level directory folder called "levelshots", and then you place dd_arena.dds in there. You don't need an additional folder of your map name inside it.

Like so:

maps
- mp
-- dd_arena.bsp
levelshots
- dd_arena.dds

Can you be more specific? Upload your levelshot so that we can have a look and try and find the problem.
