[Qgis-developer] Criticism of lack of symbols in QGIS

[Mayeul Kauffmann]

Hi,

This discussion came up already, but just in case this was forgotten:
I generated a set of about 1000 svg color icons for QGIS, based on OSM
icons.
Available here as public domain:

Sample use visible in this video:

(Customizing OSM map with osm2postgresql & QGIS )

Hope this helps,
Mayeul
