I haven't posted high quality versions because I want you to look over the designs, then tell me which one you like best, or if none of them is appealing, what color combinations or changes you want me to make. Then, once you tell me your selection, I'll clean and polish it (because right now there are some random pixels and mistakes everywhere I want to get rid of.)

Sorry for the wait, though.

Hope you like 'em!

Yo, I do like them!

I'm not trying to meet a deadline or anything so feel free to take your time.

My favorite design is actually the white on blue without the gold. After seeing the designs with gold it feels like the gold is too overwhelming for the border and for the cross it makes it not stand out as much as a white cross. So let's go with the white on blue design.

I think it's almost perfect now! My last nit-pick is I'm thinking that the borders could be a teeny bit smaller. Like just a little bit, like a milimetre smaller.
After that I think the flag's good to go

Thanks for all of your creative help!
I hope this was a usefully challenging project.

Also, do you still have the original blue and white flag that you did? The one with the white cross cutting across the flag?
I was thinking I could use that one as a military flag! So I'd like to have that one too in addition to the final design, if that's okay.

P.S. Do you have any interest in vexillology in real life? I feel like people underestimate how much work goes into making flags that both look good and that people can connect with. Like in New Zealand pretty recently, they were trying to get a new flag that would look more unique, like Canada did in the 1960's, and which looked less like Australia's flag. People were saying that they ought to hire vexillologists to aid with the process of helping to pick out and tweak submitted flag designs. Instead they let a committee of career politicians do it. The designs they picked were, in my opinion, totally ugly. Most of them were monochrome black-and-white too. And then they asked the public to vote for the best design. Of course the New Zealanders voted down all the designs and chose to keep the original flag, and they all complained that the government was run by idiots and they had wasted a ridiculous amount of taxpayer money. I don't live in New Zealand but I thought the whole incident was hilarious. Just goes to show that a lot goes into making a good flag!

I do have interest in vexillology! Incredible stuff, I especially like seeing flags made by those on the internet, and I frequently browse the vexillology subreddit. Shame about the NZ flag referendum, though, I personally liked some of
the submitted designs, would've loved to have another flag actually selected to replace the current NZ flag.

I tried and fix the border as best I could, the polished blue and white bordered flag can be found here. I think that the border was too close to the edges, and now I made the border's distance from the edge of the flag roughly equal on all sides. Please, if you find anything out of place, tell me, so I can correct it and post the flag again.

I hope you enjoy the final products!

Well, I am hoping you guys could help me out. I don't really have a good outline for the flag I want, but I do know I am looking for a cool mix of Austrian and Macedonian style flags. Perhaps the Austrian horizontal red white red flag with the Macedonian lion and shield on it, or the yellow Macedonian sun on the Austrian flag please?

Slarvainian wrote:Hey folks. I'm looking for a new flag for my nation.

I'd like to keep a colour scheme of blue, gold, and white. Black being in there is fine as well. A darker blue than my current flag would be good.

Nothing fancy needed for the background. Rather a three section horizontal or vertical background would work or just a solid colour background. I'd like for the dominant colour to be blue though so I'd probably like an alternating colour pattern for a tri-section like blue/white/blue or blue/gold/blue.

For the emblem I'd like rather a silhouette of an eagle or robot centered. Take your pick. I'd be fine with the silhouette being a plain black but also contrasting colours to the background would be fine as well. Feel free to spruce the emblem up to make it more regal like a reef or even a solid band encircling the emblem.

It has to have an oval-shaped emblem with a beach.
