	Dear list,
	I'm hoping someone can help me.
	 Following the instructions in the wiki, I am trying to add a north
	 arrow to a map. I've got a basic north arrow image (north.gif),
	I've added a pixmap symbol referencing it, and I've added a layer to
the
	map.However, the GIF never shows. I've tried this in both a
mapscript
	app and the basic Itasca demo, same result. I know there is nothing
	wrong with the GIF or symbol definition. I found one solution in 
	which a empty STYLE object that was needed but I am not sure how to
implement.
	Can anyone help?
