Quite happy with these markers so far. What do you think?

I like the style of them. The only thing I would say is the point of the pin being very slender makes it hard to see exactly where it is placed on the map.

Looking good.
What determines the size of the pin? The blue pin furthest to the right is bigger than the others.

@Matt yes. That was troubling me. I'll reassess.
@Michael The golden pins are meant to be more prominent. The blue less so. Small means least important.

I really like them, but I've gotta agree with Matt it's hard to see where it's pointing

Maybe something more like this?

It covers more of the map but it's a little more clear re: what you're pointing to. ;)

:) Though yours is more fun — I love the idea of little digital people exploring your map and staking tiny flags in their favorite places.
