computer shop icon?

0

hi all, why there is no computer shop icon in the shopping category? I think that can be useful to know where to go for help if someone gets in trouble with his pc or pda while travelling

generally speaking, there is a way to suggest new icons to add?

Hi and welcome, Fabio!

Do you mean the appearance at our standard map style on osm.org? Then please see the answers to that other question (in short: currently no changes are made since it is ported to a new system but there are lots of other map styles and uses of our data): Question: rendering-of-public_transportplatform-on-mapnik.

If you mean the preset icons of the editor Potlatch2 (which you used in your last edit): it does, by far, not support all features which we have in our data. Here is how to tag a computer shop: shop=computer (in our docu wiki). You can add those tags via the advanced mode in Potlatch2.

hi aseerel, thank you for your answer, it's exactly what I was looking for, the way to add a computer shop (or other kind of places of course)

I will try with advanced mode.

I really like this project, I will try to help providing infos about Bologna, my city, and other places I know well.

Excuse me for my poor english :)
