New icons for Tourism & Nature (Modern Monument & Statue)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi Nico,

Here are some new icons for you to use if you want.  One is a Modern
Monument icon (as opposed to the Historical Monument you already have from
me). The other is a Statue icon.

What do you think?

Hey Matthias, I like the statue very much ! (will include shortly)

The modern monument is ambiguitus. Can be a plunger, or a ring bell too :) 
I think another design might help differenciate.

OK, see your point.  Been searching a lot for some kind of standard and it 
honestly
seems that this "obelisk" type of icon is the most common for 
Monuments/Memorials,
but there are almost as many as there are monuments.  The second most common 
looks
like a grave stone so that makes even less sense.  After all it's green so it 
can't
be a plunger or ring bell...

Modified it a little, hope you like it better, else suggestions are welcome.
