+MataGigantes WOW - many apologies to have missed this for a year. But your question is still as complicated as it was then :) Basically you'll find that they all serve slightly different purposes - Mapbox is great for fairly static data and beautiful cartography, Google has unmatched APIs (geocoding being the biggest differentiator), and CartoDB is the perfect tool for mapping datasets that change a lot or require geoprocessing.
+Yasmin Amer I take back my earlier comment about it working fine - it looks like they changed the UI, but more importantly set the default behavior to show the tooltip only on click. That means you'll have to use the mapbox.js library to play with the basic map interface. Here's an example of images in tooltips that appear on hover: bl.ocks.org/wboykinm/b6e82800999d08140db3

+Bill Morris Thank you very much for your answer. Βut i still have problem. I put at the "description", the example code you send me : Then i put save and i didnt see the photo up to the marker again. Do you know why? Thank you very much.
+Marios Kalogeropoulos Looks like some nitpicky HTML; the doublequotes got turned into backticks on your keyboard, and the "src" option needs to be followed with "=" instead of ":" This should do the trick (note the differences):
+Bill Morris Thank you very much. Ι am a journalist and not a programmer as you see. Did you know if i can put a link instead a photo? Ι want to put news at the marker. And when the user click it, send him to journalism site. Something like a hyperlink or a ref at the html language.
+Marios Kalogeropoulos You'll pick it up as you go :). Looks like you want an anchor tag: developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a. Something like this: Syrian army and Russian jets target rebel towns north of Homs
can i create an offline map for an offline android app i want to develop using mapbox? i want to do a commuters guide app and i want to use an offline map.
+Neal Francis Comilan Looks like it's on their roadmap - the Mapbox strategy guy weighed in personally (a rare occurrence) on this very long thread about offline maps: github.com/mapbox/mapbox-gl-native/issues/584#issuecomment-155845085
Very good tutorials!
In your opinion, what is better to do online or shareable maps? Mapbox, Google Mapas or CartoDB? Thanks!

why doesn't my tooltip image appear when I hover? I have the code in correctly - it shows up but doesn't appear when I hover over my marker.

This is very outdated...
+Ron Mac Quarrie You are quite correct :)
