It would be a nice idea. I'm not sure it's something that would work terribly well in vector backends as the images may not scale well. I should mention that there is already support to use arbitrary Unicode characters or math expressions as markers already, which does work well in vector backends.

I've for now taken a different approach that means I won't need custom markers from images.

But I'm just curious: is there any wish/plans in Matplotlib to add support for this? I think it could do a lot to expand what's possible in terms of the look and feel of plots (even without things drifing into USA Today territory!).

Just my $0.02
