More Flag Icons!
I was going through the flag icon menu and I saw that there are no American State flags in it. Is there a way to add them so I can respect my state?  And then of course the Canucks might want their provincial flags also

Oh no, not again!
Hopefully this thread won't degenerate into a pages-long argument about flags that results in bans.

The only state that really deserves a flag is Texas

The only way you'll get more flags is if they come with the next version of vb.

I've already posted two well arguemented and fairly long flag request threads, but the official response is still "no new flags", so it's just a waste of time to send or post new requests as they won't result in anything. But if there would be new flags added, it would be nice.

Well, we tried to convince them to have paid memberships and cookies for those who buy merchandise, but it all failed. Maybe we should just send them cheques by mail. That should satisfy them.

Sheesh. This request for new flags is indicative of the current state of things in the world.

Good evening.
Only icons of state flags are available for selection. This structure is not set to change anytime soon.

Somebody should find out how often threads like these pop-up. There must be a logical period between!
I think it's 6 weeks.
Me myself always wonder why people only stick to one flag, while it's easy to put in 3 of them

Doh, you can include all flags of the World in your avatar, if you want to. You just pile them up on each other.

We need a Confederate Flag option. Not that I would change but some from the South may feel more at home.

The reason some flags are in as dependencies are in are because that is how Markos got them from his source. They will stay in because that is easier than getting rid of them. And because taking any away at this point would lead to mass protest.
Why the artist originally included them? I would guess statehood is a tricky thing. Do you include places that consider themselves a state or only ones internationally recognized? What about dependencies that are pretty much autonomous? So the artist had to pick and choose and for ACS it is easier and makes the most sense to just stick with those choices instead of trying to decide which states to add and not to add when it is just a simple added feature to see where you are from. I am sure that if there is a dependency around the world that someone really did belong to without a flag, Markos would allow that to be added. But he does not intend for everyone to simply put up whatever flag they want to.
