Has there been any thought to adding a custom loading screen for the maps on the server. Something simple with the Site's logo, list of other server, social media, and Forum URL, etc

I know this information is elsewhere when in game, but may be a nice touch and reinforce the Sneak "brand".

It's a great idea, however the background photo is derived straight from the map file you are loading. To the best of my knowledge, we can't do anything server-side to change that.

I have never run a community server so forgive my ignorance. Are the maps downloaded to a folder on your server? When added to the server does it contain a jpeg (mapname.jpeg)? I know when I played back on cs source all of the servers i played on had their own image on that screen for the load into game. Like I said I have not managed a server so I am just looking at information I am seeing online.

Yeah, things work a bit differently in GO. Up until the Panorama UI update roughly a year ago, custom map images weren't even an option - now they can be packed into the map file and displayed to the client when connecting and loading the map.
