Curling icon #266

This a great resource for amateur mappers.  Thanks Nico for creating this 
project and thanks to all of the contributors.

There is a sport missing from the list.  It is the sport of "curling".  It 
originated and Scotland but is widely spread across the northern hemisphere and 
it has been a Winter Olympic sport since 1998 although there were some 
demonstrations of curling as early as the 1924 Olympics.

See this wikipedia link for more details: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curling

I think the profile of a curling stone would make a good icon.  Here is a link 
to a curling stone image on wikimedia:

Best regards,
Bernie.

Hi Bernie,

Thanks for your positive feedback and your suggestion.  Being Swedish I know 
very well what Curling is :-)  Once it has been made you will find it here:

Matthias,

That's great. It will be nice to have the curling icon for my website:

I was going to try creating the icon myself but your website does not have  
instructions for Gimp users.

Bernie.
