Raster markers currently are not scalable. I was never happy with the output results so never bothered to support it. TrueType and vector markers are scalable. If you'd like, add this as a feature request via bugzilla. I think it may be easy to support by simply adding a flag to a symbol definition (e.g. SCALABLE TRUE).

has anybody an idea as to how to scale gif's used as icon's / symbols  on
the map
my thought are that as you zoom in to more detail then the icon's / symbols
should become smaller
to keep the same ratio
