I found that you can actually use HTML text in the tooltip so you can add with img. But this very limited and not customizable at all : ( pity, those default tooltips look very old.
I am using this trick for polygon tooltips but I suppose it will also work on markers. Ahh. There is a trick to make it work on flash9 (in 10 does not happen) on the img tag don't forget to add and Id parameter that is unique (I use the srcas Id too as this is unique in my case). If you don't youn will get errors after hovering over the second marker.
