Added a "Manage Places" (Manage POI) menu with options to set the place visibilities and select the place icons.

Hi
great addition
But when trying to change the poi icon from the Manage poi menu, I'm getting error message "Failed to open $Poi347.bmp exiting application"
Thanks
This lists the built in Amigo icons first followed by the custom icons and should work perfectly.

Perfect, it works, Thanks! Using your corrections as a starting point, I dug a little deeper and am beginning to understand how the pois are structured.
Now, just need to figure out why only some Pois show on the map and others don't even when all are enabled.

Yes it works but it's structure still isn't correct, check out the files I've just posted on the website, they include the spr files which are required to position the icons correctly on the map.
They should all show if the visibility is not "off", check that all child groups are enabled as well.
Added the following replacement "branding.gro" files with additional place icons:
UK with 478 Additional Place Icons.
EU with 797 Additional Place Icons.
UK and EU with 1275 Additional Place Icons.
US with 901 Additional Place Icons.
US, UK and EU with 2176 Additional Place Icons.
Thanks to danero2005 and m8rk for the original icon sets

How do you add an icon ?

Check the website download page for various branding files.
Replace your branding file with one from the download page and then check the website screenshots page "Manage Places" to find out how to select an icon.
Your post looks like it could do with a bit of editing.

Hi
Thanks for those, Your work is much appreciated.
I played with the pois some more.
Most of my selected Poi icons show on the map. But there are still some icons that refuse to show with the normal view.
They only work if I specify Satellite View, and I zoom way out.
What I noticed, at those sites, there are multiple blank balloons clustered together, possible conflict of some kind?

The multiple blank balloons are in fact one icon, it's the multiple poi icon and it's displayed when there is more than one poi at, or very near, the same location. You can find it in the poi icon listing at the very end, usually after all of the custom icons. So it's not a conflict, usually zooming right in will show them all, but if they are in exactly the same spot then some may still not show.

US, UK and EU with 2176 Additional Place Icons.
These all now include both standard 32x32 and smaller 20x20 icons. The smaller icons show when the map is zoomed out and are automatically replaced by the standard icons as the map is zoomed in.
