I already did that... I quoted the comments about the new features you
had in your first post...

I found the above a tad confusing, so I tried a 'test' marker myself and
added a .jpg to it, then hit the 'place' button. When I clicked on my
new marker it came up with the choice of 'edit' and 'delete'. I chose
'edit'. It popped up the placement box again, showed me the original
Name/Message comments I had, but not the path to the.jpg (that was
blank)..I changed the Name/Message, then I hit 'update'. It changed my
comments but kept the original .jpg. Then I went back to edit it again,
and changed the text and chose a different .jpg. That updated
everything. So, IOW, you can change the .jpg by replacing it with
another .jpg - but if you decide you don't want a pic after all, it
seems that you have to delete the whole marker and start again. Do you
agree?
