As ThinkGeo's lead graphic designer, one of the projects I've worked on extensively is the Map Suite Icon Library, a collection of over 5,000 icons (and growing) you can use to lend a visual flair to your maps and GIS applications.  The library contains a wide variety of imagery, ranging from vehicles and places to people, road signs and weather symbols.

Since the initial release of the Icon Library, we've worked to identify additional icons and categories that would help further expand the library's variety.  Our customers have been a great help in recommending new imagery, including dashboard-style icons that indicate a vehicle's engine temperature, oil pressure and more, and a set of icons representing computer activities like "save," "open" and "print."  You can always see the complete list of all the icons in our library by checking out our Icon Samples page.

One of the best parts about our Icon Library expansion efforts is that we offer these enhancements at no additional cost to anyone who already purchased the library.  This helps make your purchase of the Icon Library future-proof, and demonstrates the kind of commitment to satisfaction -- both before and after the sale -- that ThinkGeo has become known for.

Now, I'd like to give our readers an opportunity to help shape the direction of further additions to the Map Suite Icon Library.  What icons would you like to see?  What new image categories would you benefit from?  Do you have a special project that needs icons for a specific purpose?  Let us know, and your request might get added to the Icon Library.
