i tried that also

most important part ...

Rename your icon EXACTLY the same name as your POI file except for the file extension (the three letters after the dot).

you have to zoom in as close as 200 feet to view them.

thank you for your help i really appreciate it. i did that also for example i right click the icon picture save it to my file and rename it with .bmp at the end

:)

Trust me, it will work as long as you follow those instructions step by step. Make sure your file extensions show you the full path. example: poi.csv and poi.bmp

Be sure that you don't have DOUBLE file extensions. Be sure the settings on your computer are not to hide file extensions.

If you name the file, Starbucks.bmp.bmp, it will not work.

It's like there's an echo in here. LOL
