Speed Camera Icon Sizes

Even though I'm sure I read somewhere that Garmin icons can't be larger than 24x24 on the newer devices with higher resolutions, they can:

Taken from my 2597 as a test, will be put on my 2599 later:

24x24 :

44x44 :

That's useful to know as like you I have been stuck with the small (24 x 24) speed camera icons. Good shout and with hindsight seeing some of the pre-installed Garmin POIs with larger icons should have been a prompt to test this out much earlier.

Thanks for the tip and making my icons larger now.

Are there any larger ones to download? I vaguely remember stories about 44x44 being available, but can't find them.

Found some HERE but obviously haven't investigated further, yet.
Downloaded OK. I feel some renaming coming on so that the match the requirements for Garmin CSV converter/POI Loader.

Yes, that's where the icon(s) in my second picture came from.

What does the filename have to be renamed to so that they are compatible with your CSV converter.

Exactly the same as now

gatso_twenty.bmp for example

I've moved my old ones to a save folder and put the new ones in place of the old ones in my PGPSW/ folder

If you download the TomTom OV2 format you will get 44x44 files in there. You'll need to rename them though as they're suffixed with _X2

Hope that helps?
