Your example wasn't using iconkey correctly, but you say you now
understand that part so i'll skip.
Since icons are defined by urls, if you give the urls of your photos,
those photos will indeed be used as the icons.
However, those photos are generally large and will load slowly. So, a
better approach is to create a thumbnail for each icon and use urls of
the thumbnails.

Sorry, I now understand how iconcoder and iconkey work. However, I
am trying to display a dataset of photographs, and would like each
of my icons to be an icon of the photograph in question. Is this
possible through Exhibit?

Can someone please explain how to use ex:iconKey correctly?
I am trying to get custom icons to work with Exhibit +
Timeline. The data is coming as JSON from Google Docs, where I
have an {icon} field which contains the URL for each event
icon (these are single events). So I am trying to do
something like:
<div ex:role="view"
ex:viewClass="Timeline"
ex:start=".start"
ex:end=".end"
ex:iconKey=".icon"
ex:timelineConstructor="myTimelineConstructor"
>
</div>
And myTimelineConstructor makes bands like this:
var bandInfos = [
Timeline.createBandInfo({
width: "20%",
intervalUnit: Timeline.DateTime.MONTH,
intervalPixels: 100,
eventSource:
constructFilteredEventSource(eventSource, window.database,
"category", "a"),
theme: theme
Everything works except the icons! Any help would be appreciated.
