Hi, I'm glad you found the icons helpful. Just to say that the last version is now in svn (http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/share/map-icons/svg-twotone/) and the version on the sjjb.co.uk website is out of date. The version in svn contains quite a lot more icons and various improved scripts for generating png icons - generatemapniksymbols.sh and generatecategoryicons.sh most likely already do what you need.
