Default BRING BACK FULL PUSHPIN LIBRARY

It is difficult to appreciate why software companies like MSFT deem removal of product features, such as the full pushpin options list in Streets & Trips, to be a valid part of a product's evolution.

Amen,

Please bring back the full pushpin set. I have to believe this was done so that the look and feel matches the online Live features. As users we lose again because someone wants a pretty interface.

I am not sure what the motivation for peeling out functionalities is. I say let us users make it as messy as we like. Like a sandbox.

It will be interesting to see if the next version of Streets and Trips 2010 brings back the lost pushpin symbols. In the mean time, perhaps the easiest way to add the old pushpins to the new S&T 2009 is to just use the template Gladwin posted yesterday: [Template] Old-style pushpins for Streets & Trips 2009 / MapPoint 2009
