My Custom Markers - Where do I place them?

Ah! Thanks very much!

At the moment, the aspect ratio of each marker is a little odd. They appear squashed? Is there a way around this?

Anyway, thanks again.

The aspect ratio is sort of an issue... You can not specify the image size, and it will default to the one of regular markers on initial load. However, when loading the map a second time (and the image is cached), Maps figures out it's size and makes the marker be displayed correctly.

OK... thank you very much.

I have the same problem. My custom markers have a size of 32x37 px. They are shown in the map with an wrong ratio and in a smaller size. Also after reloading the map, they are not shown correctly. I am using the last version of Maps and Mediawiki. What can I do to solve the problem?

You can make your marker be displayed nicely in that aspect ratio used. This can be done by adding transparent areas to either left and right of the image or at the top and bottom. As user you cannot specify the aspect ratio at this time.
