Those pushpins get uploaded soooo many times to the Custom Marker
Maker that I really ought to create a pack for download :)

In the meantime, try uploading one of the transparent png pushpins

e.g
http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/ms/micons/blue-pushpin.png
http://maps.gstatic.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/ms/micons/red-pushpin.png

and adjusting the code supplied in the zip pack to move the anchor
point to the left or right accordingly

For example

myIcon.iconAnchor = new GPoint(0,32); // Places the anchor point at
the bottom right of the icon
myIcon.iconAnchor = new GPoint(0,16); // Places the anchor point at
the bottom middle of the icon

The image map array produced seems ok for me for those images, yet I'm
always open to suggestions!

Kind regards
