  Starting on sketching for a client logo. Spec requires it contain a map marker. I'm Googling around, checking Dribbble, FFFFound, etc. Looking at what's already been done since this is such common iconography and I don't want to end up with a copy cat logo. Do you guys have any others that come to mind?

  You mean something like a thumbtack? Or an arrow?

  tbh, I wouldnt' really worry about that - nothing wrong with having standardisation where a UI's concerned.

  As an aside though, I recently played around with the PolyLine functionality in GMaps, using it to create a large cross that indicated the client's position, then stretching out a few hundred kilometres, to encompass the presumed range of their clientele.

  Quite handy, those PolyLines..

  It's not brand logo that has to incorporate a map marker, it's not a UI element.

  • Goddam typo... It's a brand logo that has to incorporate a map marker, it's not a UI element.

    It would appear I entirely misread your post.
