[georss] Styling GeoRss points

[Pat Cappelaere]

Christopher,

There is a size attribute that specifies the height of the graphic and the
corresponding aspect ratio ought to be used for the control of the width.
[02-070_Styled_Layer_Descriptor_Implementation_Specification.pdf]

Are you saying that you need full control of width and height to distort the
image?
