This is probably quite simple, but I am struggling to work it out. I am trying to place a custom marker using lat/lng
https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/staticmap?size=600x400&scale=2&markers=icon:http://chart.googleapis.com/chart?chst=d_bubble_texts_big&chld=bb%7Cffffff%7C000000%7CPL1+2|50.367285472963,-4.138801595¢er=50.367285472963,-4.138801595&zoom=10
but it does not show the marker - what am I missing?
The marker works:

As does the map with a default marker
markers=color:red|50.367285472963,-4.138801595¢er=50.367285472963,-4.138801595&zoom=10
