110 - Change Mining/Herbalism Node Icons

What is the enhancement in mind? How should it look and feel?
  Change the default icons for Mining and Herbalism nodes.  
  This benefit would help with any form of multiple tracking, since fishing nodes appear the same.
  Also, hunters would benefit greatly since most nodes appear identical when tracking multiple types.

Please provide any additional information below.

  Basically, have nodes appear different from the round, yellow dots, and the round, yellow dots with red used for some mobs.

 Consider a square or diamond shape for ore nodes similar to Saronite ore shape.
  Also just a black or grey dot, or a checkerboard pattern would just as useful, since they look different enough.
 For herbs, either the peacebloom shape of a flower, or simply a green colored dot.

    Sadly, this is impossible to do. :(

    Nodes share the same texture so changing it to a flower would mean Saronite would also be marked with a flower.
    Hunter tracking dots use a different texture to nodes but they still cannot be separated by the type of active tracking.

    Sorry. :(
