so you mean you want to show that a bar that averages 10k a week has increase sales and a bar that averages 5k a week has a down week? Or you need to show that a bar made either 5k or 10k?

So you can glance at map and see total sales volume for current month for each bar AND the little arrow tells you if that is an increase or decrease from last month. (anything +/- 15% counts as significant) |

And those icons you have look like guitar picks. You might want to play that up for a more stylized look.

http://www.eventzombie.com/mobile/map.php?dis=stjoe I used St Joe just for fun, the real areas will be all in Texas to start. Like Austin... http://www.eventzombie.com/mobile/map.php?dis=atx_dt Here you can see how tightly packed the icons can get. And these are just simple markers not even up/down arrows in a circle or whatever I end up with for the Sales maps. |

Yeah, I think the circle color for volume and a colored arrow inside the circle for % change is what I am going to run with. OH and I also am adding a "heat map" for both % and volume (obviously two different maps) so you can see trends for entire areas of town. |

Just tried it actually, number aren't scaling well, looking awful. I think I'm stuck with very basic primitives.

Can you make them green up arrows, yellow sideways arrows, and red down arrows, and the size of the arrows indicates the size of the establishment (or perhaps the size of the change)? It's simple, it's intuitive, and it shows your support for Native American culture.

Maybe you could go with brightness of hue on the red-yellow-green scale. More intense colors equal bigger change.

Ok it looks like issue #2 is close to being resolved... here are some samples of "circle" markers... any particular ones that look best? Oh and keep in mind they will be MUCH smaller than this on the map...
