<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Mike - I'm assuming you are in the
print composer portion of all of this: <br>
<br>
if so: <br>
<br>
<ol>
<li>Add your map to the print composer(white icon with a green +
sign)<br>
</li>
<li>Add an image (should be the next icon just to the right -
pic with a green plus sign))</li>
<li>Click on item properties (just to the right). </li>
<li>Under search directories you should see a list of SVG images.
</li>
<li>In there you will see some north arrows. It's a goal to make
more for QGIS - these lack soul. <br>
</li>
<li>Scroll down just a bit and you can check the box sync with
map - that will keep your image/north arrow aligned with the
map if you change it. </li>

I simply want to indicate "North" on my map. It seems to me there
should be a plugin with some standard symbols that can be scaled
to maps in general? How are users handling this?<br>
