Google Map icons with VisualRefresh [closed]

How can I use the "new" default icons for Google maps when using VisualRefresh setting?

The default icon is: http://mt.googleapis.com/vt/icon/name=icons/spotlight/spotlight-poi.png&scale=1

Former addresses looked like this: http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/marker_green.png, but using the new and old icons in the same map doesn't look good.

I don't have an official list, but did do some research.

https://mt.google.com/vt/icon/text=A&psize=16&font=fonts/arialuni_t.ttf&color=ff330000&name=icons/spotlight/spotlight-waypoint-b.png&ax=44&ay=48&scale=1

Use that URL and you can easily change the text, size,font and color to your preference,
however the color parameter will only change the color of the text. but if you change waypoint-b.png to waypoint-a.png you get a green marker.

Places:

                   

                   

                   

                   

                   

                   

                   

               

               

               

               

Traffic:

Miscellaneous:


Look at the URLs and notice the L which can also be S or M, notice the _v_ and _search_ in the names.
At the transit icons you can change large to tiny, mini, and small.

There is probably more. but thats all I have found so far.
