Once you've got the basics down, let's dive into customizing your map. You can add your own content, such as logos, text, or images, by clicking on the "Add a marker" button and selecting from various icons and shapes.

Adding Custom Content

Add your own logo to get started. Click on the "Logo" icon in the top-left corner of the map and upload an image or enter the URL of an existing file.

In this example, we've added a simple logo from Google's official website. Now it's time to customize our map further by adding text and images.
