	*** Well I tried that and it resizes the custom marker to the size of the pin (the DOM inspector shows that the size is simply set in the image's style attribute). Also considering the shadow image (which URL is totally unrelated to the marker {http://maps.google.com/intl/en_us/mapfiles/shadow50.png} are independant of these icon options, I think there's something more to this.

-* Apparently it seems that the egyptmap images use a relative path.
