Folks, for those of you working in PHP-land and can use numbered icons, the attached script may be of interest.

I'm using this for a GMaps-based (for now) Open Source dispatch system that uses numbered icons rather extensively. Until recently, I've packaged the script with 400+ numbered and colored icons to accommodate busier sites. While that's worked, it's admittedly rather clumsy and really bloats the installation zipfile.

The attached script generates numbered - or lettered - icons on the fly. It assumes eight colors and the usual teardrop shapes. It ain't hugely complex - to say the least - but mebbe useful, although you'll need some PHP chops to adapt it to yr own use.

(See the application at http://www.saefern.org/tickets/ - guest login available.)
