Displaying variable images

[pixlepix]

So, on the map in my game, I want to have icons to represent the different map tiles, troops on the map, etc. So, I would have 1-5 icons on each map tile. Is there any way to do this besides hundred of different pictures?

Yep, with a sprite sheet. Look up 'css sprites' and you'll find tons of tools and tutorials.
