Market icon

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi there - love the icons. they work so much better design-wise, and are
better designed and more unified than the standard Google Earth / Google
Maps ones. I'm attaching one that I found indispensable to my own mapping
needs, an "open market" icon—for open-air markets and so on. I would
usually use a "shopping mall" icon for these before making this icon, but
found that it really wasn't the same thing.

I'd really like to know how it would be possible to use these icons as
default Google Earth icons - to replace the standard set (or palette, or
whatever) that show up when choosing icons for a new placemark. any idea
how to do this?
Cheers

This is a very good icon!  I'll include it in the collection as soon as I can! 
Thanks for your contribution!  //Matthias

I tried a new version with the existing design by dragfyre (which is awesome !).

I can't decide which one is the best... help me :)

Nico, I see absolutely no difference in the last 3 icons you made... What did 
you do?

Dragfyre, great idea. I can see that Nico wants the symbol bigger, which I 
aggree to,
but now yours is to small and his is to big in my humble opinion.  Try to make 
the
symbol no wider than 20 pixels.

Difference is (very) small, I must admit...

The (2) has the products centered inside the shelter.
The (3) has more space above the products.

The (4) here is smaller.

That's a done, according to me!  Now we only need to figure out how to make
variations for Christmas and Flea markets.  Christmas with some Christmas
decorations, like stars and bells?  Flea with... fleas ;-)  //Matthias
