Super easy to use

Super easy to use – works right out of the box, and a ton of good looking map themes to choose from. If anything, there are too many – but you can sort by popularity etc. and search. It’s a great, sim

Broken Adware

Since 1.4.10 the custom icon feature is broken. Since 2.0.0 it is adware.

New feature: advert!

It used to be a good, lightweight plugin, but now it’s part of aBlocks and shows giant ad for aBlocks everywhere.
