Hey All,
Thanks for all of your help. Looks like I got it working, now I may want to change the colors and attributes around. After initially having problems with transperancy, I downloaded the beta of MicroAngelo, turns out the icon files I placed in the folder were gifs, alas! Made my icons after importing them from created bitmaps, MicroAngleo will only import and retain transperancy for images imported and this and a few other formats, gif and jpeg not included. I replaced the files in the icons folder, fired it up, and away I went
. Here is what my map of Los Angeles looks like now...
