Answer 1

Head over to CocoaControls for custom controls. I bet you'll find something useful for your requirement.

Here are some search results from CocoaControls:

• Bubble

Custom Pin Image

There are already questions on SO which answer this here and here and many more. I daresay you'll find your answer among them. Basically, the code is

- (MKAnnotationView *)mapView:(MKMapView *)mapView viewForAnnotation:(id<MKAnnotation>)annotation
{
    if([annotation isKindOfClass:[MKUserLocation class]])
    return nil;

    NSString *annotationIdentifier = @"CustomViewAnnotation";
    MKAnnotationView* annotationView = [mapview dequeueReusableAnnotationViewWithIdentifier:annotationIdentifier];
    if(!annotationView)
    {
        annotationView = [[MKAnnotationView alloc] initWithAnnotation:annotation
                                                  reuseIdentifier:annotationIdentifier]];
    }
    annotationView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"map_location_pin.png"];
    annotationView.canShowCallout= YES;

    return annotationView;
}

You need to create custom Annotations.
