Custom Pins In Location Map Plugin

Hi can anyone tell if I am able to create my own custom pin in the Location Map plugin? If so, how do I achieve this?

There is a plugin coming out that does this, hold ones horses it should be here soon. But yes you can and it requires quite a bit of coding

Ah, Kittsy, can't you give Susan a back hander to get your plugins to market much faster? Also I don't want to change the subject, but the other day you gave me a fix to add the iAds to your Carousel plugin to seat on top of the Socialize tool bar. Do you have a fix so it seats on top the BT tab bar as I have the same issue of the iAd on seating on top in the Carousel plugin?

Hi Dragon007 I've done it and Kittsy has helped me to test and corrected some errors. But because David will update all coredata files, so there was a little delay to this release. I hope it will be out next week.

The custom pins are very slick, saves a ton of coding and makes apps look more pro. Wish this had been out two weeks ago. I only have the custom pins in iOS, any plans for Android @Mackimack?

@MacApple. Susan spoke she maybe will do it, but she has a lots of things to do. I do not know if she and David do it together. Otherwise, for any other plugin developers maybe can do it.

@dragon is this tab bar without the socialize included or are you looking at. tabbar>socialize>iad there will be hardly any screen left if it's just tabbar>iad then the same code and label hack should work the tabbar is the same height as the socialize and toolbar isn't it

@ATRAIN53 In My custom Map plugin, you can add what image you want as pin image. You can also add a image icon on the left side of the callout. You can also replace the subtitel and add the distance between the user position to the Map pin positions.
