Google My maps is a really useful option 

 

recently my country ( sri lanka) faced to a major flood situation and group of volunteers volunteered to create a custom map using google my map feature to help and identification areas which needed our help. have a look   2017 Sri Lanka Flood Crisis Map

Re: How to create My Maps with beautiful custom icons

This is all very nice, and I created some and they were VERY cute. 

They all disappeared from my map one day and took a layer with them. 

I am trying to find an answer for how/why this happened so I can maybe do something different next time as they took hours to create.

I read old threads, but they pertain to firefox. I am using Chrome.

Thank you @LuisRG for the detailed guide on creating my map.I find it interesting. I would love to create and add my own map featuring tourist points in my city which I don't see in the current map.

Thanks for adding another one, @OlegKostyukevich

Guys out there: keep them coming! There are still many cities that have no custom map we would know about... 😉 😛 😄
