Hi, I am an occasional user of Mappero as I know where I'm going most of the time, and generally use Mappero for the Google traffic layer. Especially this last week or two with the bad weather in the UK.

I quite like Martymeflb's and Electric Lungfishs icon sets, but would prefer the contrast against the map to be higher, as like the current set, sometimes hard to pick up at a glance. Colour or a higher contrast on the background may help here. Or a simple set of high contrast icons. I would actually like to see a simple high contrast icon theme based on and similar to the default theme's icons.

the hardest icons to understand currently are the GPS icon, as when it i on it appears to be crossed out, or switched off which is counter intuitive. reversing this would improve things. Or have a sat dish with no "waves" when not receiving, and "waves" when on.

Unfortunately I do not have much artistic talent, but this may hopefully inspire someone else.
