Icon Image Sets

From Google Mapki

DO NOT HOT-LINK TO ICONS!
Please download sets and host them on your own server.
If a link here is to your marker set and you do not want it linked to here, please remove it from the wiki and post a note in the Summary in the edit window.

[edit] Dynamic Icons

These are icons that are created on the fly, usually in PHP using an imaging library.

• Draw Icons Dynamically

Shadows are created dynamically based on the icon's shape and scale. Almost any shape is possible.

• mapicon Factory

New interface and functionality! Create custom markers. Choose marker style, marker size, symbol sets, character sets, numbers, marker fill color, style color, and even a 3-D effect. All icons sets now include shadows. All users get access to first 10 icons in icon set. Subscription service for an annual fee of $19.95.

• Marker Maker

Creates a marker of any colour. Enter the RGB values and hit GO.

• PHP script which uses the webhues package posted above to make colored, numbered markers on the fly
• Shadowmaker

Create shadows for any bitmap image with transparency (png, gif)

• IconFactory Creates dynamic icons by using a secret feature of the Google Chart API. There's a Wizard to help you choose the settings, and a Blog article with details and examples.
