title: Resize Google Maps marker icon image
body: <p>When I load an image into the icon property of a marker it displays with its original size, which is a lot bigger than it should be.</p>
  
  <p>I want to resize to the standard to a smaller size. What is the best way to do this? </p>
  
  <p>Code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>function addMyPos(latitude,longitude){
    position = new google.maps.LatLng(latitude,longitude)
    marker = new google.maps.Marker({
      position: position,
      map: map,
      icon: "../res/sit_marron.png"
    });
  }
  </code></pre>
