Subject: Re: Custom icon stopped working
I hosted my custom images on a different server (not on Picasa), then
it started working again.  The new host serves the files via http
protocol, as opposed to https.  For some maps, there was a delay
before it started working (probably because of caching).  To confirm,
you can try re-naming your kmz file and it should work right away.

Good luck,

Bernd
