This simple code will work if your marker icons is a 20x34 pixel
image. This is the size of the default icon.
-----------------------------------------------
var gicon = new GIcon( G_DEFAULT_ICON );
gicon.image = 'path/to/images/my-custom-marker.png';
gicon.shadow = '';
var gmarker = new GMarker(
marker.latlng,
{
icon: gicon
}
);
-----------------------------------------------
I've turned off the icon shadows but if you have a 37x35 pixel image
for shadow you can populate the GIcon.shadow property. To customize
icon size, shadow, shadow size and more, documentation is available
