[mapserver-users] example symbology files - points of interest

[Christy Nieman]

Hi Mark,

Could you provide the layer section of the mapfile where you tried 
displaying the "recreational" icon. It would allow us to see what you've 
tried. I believe you may be able to achieve the desired effect using an 
annotation layer.
