I have custom icons for speedways and red light cameras. When I migrated from my Drive Assist 50 to my new Drive Smart 55, the Icons are now TINY! Any idea if this is a known issue? Or was is just designed this way to not take up as much space. The speedway logo is now just about the width of 3 lanes of highway!
Try 48x48

Right click one of your existing BMP icons and click properties. Now click details. What is the size showing for the icon/ If 24x24 or less.Select a 48x48 and try it. For the files as per your examples you should find the 48x48 icons included along with the file. Example Speedway http://www.poi-factory.com/node/8700 .See last bmp on list.

Seeing that I'm supporting
Seeing that I'm supporting both a old Nuvi 660 and a newer Nuvi 2689, and they both use different audio and Icon Sizes, I end up having two separate fully stocked POI Folders, OLD and NEW, and put MP3's and smaller icons in OLD folder, and WAV and larger icons in NEW folder....
As Long as I Switch the Folder in the POI Updater to match the unit I'm updating, I'm fine.... as both Icons and Audio files are involved...
A 2689LMT in both our cars that we love... and a Nuvi 660 with Lifetime Maps that we have had literally forever.... And a 2011 Ford Escape with Nav System that is totally ignored!
Split the difference
I found the 24x24 icons too small and most of the larger ones too big so I loaded the large icons into Paint and resized them to half the difference.
