Hi Matthias,

I like your city gate, but for specific "stand-alone" gates like Arc de Triomph 
in 
Paris it is not really a good icon. Maybe goad to create a specific "gate" or 
"arc" 
icon as well.

Camping is now represented by a caravan, but I would feel a tent is a more 
universal 
and understandable icon. Maybe good to create a tent as well

For towers, there now only is the "Medieval" tower icon that is not in the set 
yet 
but that Matthias uses in his site, but I don't feel that is a good icon to 
represent more modern towers like Eiffel Tower in Paris or Euromast in 
Rotterdam or 
any modern lookout tower on top of a mountain. Maybe good to create a more 
modern 
looking television tower like icon as well.

Hey Matthias, another nice addition. Great work !
My comments on the last ones :
- City Gate & Wall : good and added
- Waterfall : not that good :)
- Bullfight Arena : nice but I would put it in "Entertainment" like Cinema, 
Casino, ...
- Amphitheatre : not that good, too similar with Wifi
- Temple (Ancient) : good and added
- Olympic Site : good and added
- Wineyard : good and added

Your other suggestions are good, just one comment for camping :
- Camping (tents) : we already have a camping icon, with a camping car

Go on, you rock :)

I created a Dam icon, but I decided it should be in "Industry", blue colored.

Matthias, you added a 2nd church, a 2nd cathedral, a 2nd convent ?

Whats the purpose ? Do you really need another type of church for protestant ? 
Or do
you want to replace the old ones ?

Also, for Camping, are the 3 all needed ?

The new Fountain use cute as hell :)

Matthias, you did another panoramic view, I can't see how it's different/better 
than
the other one ?

Original comment by nico.mol...@gmail.com on 28 Sep 2009 at 8:39

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
You are right, they are very similar. The "new" has a lot less transparency and 
the
dot is changed to an eye instead.  The reason being that it's a lot more 
standard and
the eye should also make it easier to understand what it means.  I will do a 
360°
version as well. If you don't mind I would like us to change the first version 
for
the new one instead of having two very similar.  What do you think? //Matthias

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Ok Matthias, you can change the original one !

I don't really like to have many icons for one POI.
In the Tourism category, you designed some icons for the same POI or maybe not.
It's not clear for me, church, cathedral, ancient monument have 2 icons. Have 
the
icons different meanings ?

Matthias, I created a "Mine" icon under "Industry" (blue) and not under Tourism 
(green).

I thought it was a better choice, don't you agree ?
