I'm currently working on the graphics for a large ruleset and was looking for a little experienced inspiration.

When you open the story/images/items frames at the bottom of the scroll you can add new flag tabs and you can alter the icon shown in that flag along with the color to help differentiate it.

Do any GM's out there use these icons frequently when running your game and if so are there any particular icons that would be more helpful to have than the existing lineup? Does it even matter what they are as long as they are visibly different?

I think, for me, as long as its visibly different it'll work.
+Good lookin (always a given?) :p

It'd be NICE with heraldic symbols of course. :)

I use them quite a bit. The first three past the default (the drama and comedy masks) are pretty ugly in my opinion (I'm not evem quite sure what #2 and #3 are supposed to be), so some better looking ones would be good. The others seem pretty clear. As far as specific suggestions, a tree and a castle tower would be useful to me (I run D&D), but others might find a rocket and a computer more to their taste.
