Shall we go with a classic 4:3 width:height ratio?

Google is a wonderful thing.

Locutus · October 25, 2002, 12:50

f*cked it up

Maquiladora · October 25, 2002, 12:51

Reworking slightly. Obviously his face should be replaced with mine over time.

Locutus · October 25, 2002, 12:52

Pretty lame, but something similar to this would be nice I suppose... (I'll leave it up to people who *can* work with graphics to make an actual flag)

(2nd attempt)

Locutus · October 25, 2002, 13:06

How's this for someone with no graphics skills...

Maquiladora · October 25, 2002, 13:08

Not bad

I was looking for that exact thing, that compass thing too.

Locutus · October 25, 2002, 13:09

Thx

I just used the first one I could find, there may be better ones in the ZFS files...

Maquiladora · October 25, 2002, 13:21

Locutus is right, that blue/purple does look a little odd.

Wise Ass · October 26, 2002, 04:23

hmmm... Maybe I will come up with something a little later

Red is always good, you should have more red in the flag then in your last version, Ben. Therefore I would swap the colors red and white.

perhaps the flag could change over time?
one small compass for every city or something like that?

Maquiladora · October 26, 2002, 10:14

What about a new tiny lemur for each city?

Enough with the damn lemur

Kill the Lemur

centrifuge · October 26, 2002, 21:45

Thought this might come in handy...

Sorry SMIFFGIG

Edit: misspelled your name, sorry again

Maquiladora · October 27, 2002, 02:43

Thanks centrifuge

I like the last one, but I'm of the opinion that flags should be restricted to the traditional six colours (red, yellow, white, black, blue, green I think) - after all, they should be possible to make by stitching together bits of plain cloth. It's hard to do a realistic lemur that way, but I like the silhouette solution.

Locutus · October 27, 2002, 08:39

@ this entire thread

I *really* like Maq's last flag

IW's second wheel+lemur flag (the prodominantly white one, the 'Austrian' version has too much red in it) is pretty damn good too...

Maq,
Although our nation is a virtual one and we needn't really be bothered with restrictions on colors, John's got a bit of a point. So it would at least be interesting to see what your last flag looks like if the compass is all-yellow and the background all-red. Any chance you could post such a thing?

Also, I think the clearest picture that exists of the man holding the flag is the one I posted

Maquiladora · October 27, 2002, 10:32

3 basic colours, looks more like a flag.
