I was hoping to get a less 'seal on bedsheet' version of

this flag. It ideally would use the colours of the Imperial Tricolour

. Any take that can simplify the flag or make it a bit more 'flaglike' would be great. For example, the simple albanian eagle would be better detail for a flag versus this highly detailed symbol I currently use. I'm open to any takes at all.

Thanks!

Can someone replace the 'SINGAPURA' on this seal with 'TIECHIHIGANIET"?
I know its a bit long, but if its too inconvenient I'm okay with just 'TECHGANET'

I would also like if the circle surround the seal would be removed as well.

Thanks!

Generally speaking, you are encouraged to give more detail in your requests. Here's my quick take on the concept: https://imgur.com/zk68cnl

Sorry I was so vague! I couldn't really think of a specific way to phrase that. Your workup was great, though.

Speak for yourself.

For my part, I appreciate clarity, but only need detail where something specific is required. As you noted, a vague idea can be a source of inspiration. I prefer to have some creative input rather than acting as a graphics assembly machine.

Nice job. I like that slant-ended cross.

This may be difficult, I'm not sure, but I'll ask: so, on my present flag, imagine the blue shield in the background is divided into four parts by the St. George's Cross. I was thinking perhaps making that shield look like the one on this coat of arms:
(Image)
However, I'd prefer the lions passant remain gold and the shield remain blue behind them (so the upper-right of the and lower-left of the shield are blue, with 3 gold lions passant on each). And instead of fleur-de-lis on the upper-left and lower-right corners, a golden Greek omega in one corner and a golden lion rampant in the other.
Also, on the Coat of Arms of the United Kingdom, you notice the banner at the bottom reading "Dieu et mon droit" (God and my right) and specifically the way it slithers behind the belt for a moment?
(Image)
I'd like a banner like that, except displaying "Dieu est mon droit" (note the "t" in "est"; this makes it "God is my right"). Colors and shape are completely up to you on the banner, but I'd prefer the banner itself go in front of the shield but behind the St. George's Cross.
Another thing to note, the heraldry of the golden lions and omega should (preferably) go ON the blue shield, so they are obscured by the saltire.
I completely understand this is a lot, and I honestly would try to fumble through it all myself, but the only online flag maker websites I could find didn't have the particular charges I'm looking for. And I certainly couldn't find a banner to type "Dieu est mon droit" on. I'm not that experienced with flag-making, though. I'm also alright with compromising on some of these requests if they're a bit too taxing. If you need to remake my flag in order to add different layers (and I think remaking the flag would be a necessity here), the width for the Canadian maple leaf is at 2.5 and the fleur-de-lis is 0.5 (I don't actually know what these numbers mean, but this is what I remember). Importantly, the maple leaf, fleur-de-lis, and background are all Tyrian purple (#66023C). Again, I'm alright with making compromises on a fair few of these things, and if the lions and omega are hideous in gold then Tyrian purple could work for them, too (maybe?). If this is all too much, do get back to me and I'll see which bits I can do without, yeah?

I'd like it replaced with the elder futhark character for 'one', known as 'fehu' as seen here:

I'd like to see it sideways with the two flicky bits on the right hand side, emulating the current shape. Just wanting to see how it looks. if you think it looks better done upright or however you like, thats cool too. Feel free to give a couple versions if you wanna play and aren't sure which is the best. Ideally, I'd like the elder futhark character to be done in a similar style to that calligraphy-look that the current flag has. Thanks

Once upon a time, I had a flag I liked. Then someone from my own region ripped it off, and made it even better. After that, I couldn't stand to use it anymore.

My old flag: https://imgur.com/vtmfQWs

Theirs: https://imgur.com/lDDG8qm

Now, I have an idea for a new flag, but I lack the expertise to make it. I was hoping someone here might be able to make my concept a reality. It would be much appreciated!

The idea is similar to what I've shown above, and is representative of my commitment to the alliance, NSLeft.

As before, the top part of the flag, should be red, and the middle should be yellow. The bottom should be waves, like found on the the Latvian SSR flag: https://imgur.com/FIYfqdZ

For the ship, I would like to use a Viking-styled ship, with a dragon figurehead, i.e.: https://imgur.com/XRe56gp

However, there are some assets in the above image that I believe should be edited. Namely, the small red flag atop the ship. It should be waving to the left. Furthermore, I would like that small red flag to be red and black, in the design of the anarcho-syndicalist flag: https://imgur.com/tv0Mckp

The ship could also use some oars for realism, if it's not too much trouble.

I would like the sail of the ship to feature the design of the flag of The Red Fleet: https://imgur.com/zOolDJi

Lastly, I would like the shields on the ship to feature designs from the flags of several member regions of NSLeft. The shields featuring these designs should be towards the middle of the ship. The rest of the shields can be various red and black designs.

For the first shield, I would like the red and black flags from The Internationale's flag: https://imgur.com/ioRqugY

For the second, I would like the circle and star from North Korea's flag: https://imgur.com/fIXLxlI

For the third, I would like the red rose of Democratic Socialist Assembly: https://imgur.com/U50Aikz

For the fourth, I would like the cog and stars of The Leftist Assembly's flag: https://imgur.com/r5huP1a

For the fifth, I would like the hammer and sickle/cog design from The Communist Bloc's flag: https://imgur.com/ACnQ7HO

I hope this request is not too much trouble, and am excited that it might be fulfilled. I really appreciate what all the flag creators in this thread do for the community! Thank you!

I've included a variant which displays the banner better.

I've given it a shot at editing it myself, but I'm terribly amateur and have had no success. I was wondering; is there any chance at having the shields done and upsizing the flag? I've heard that uploaded flags can now be larger, though, I may be misinformed.

A darker variant would be cool, too, perhaps with a stormy, purple sky, black clouds, and a greener sea -- a color palette, sort of like this: https://imgur.com/a/ipg40Mg

The inspiration being the song I use as my national anthem, it goes: "Black storms shake the sky/Dark clouds blind us/Although pain and death await us/Duty calls us against the enemy"

Regardless, I appreciate what you've done.

A shofar (ram's horn-style trumpet) mostly in brown pointing towards the center of the flag
A lion's head mostly in purple and tan and facing forward towards observer
A seven-branch menorah mostly in gold on its horizontal stripe here

All elements should be seen from left to right as an observer might see the flag, each centered as appropriate on its respective third of the flag.

The flag should be in the following sizes, if possible, when complete, please:

1200 by 960 pixels, 960 by 640 pixels, and 70 by 47 pixels.

And it should be transparent, if possible, as well. Please telegram Slaabovia when done, or if you have any questions, et cetera, before then. Thank you. Slaabovia out.

Still waiting on this. Can anyone please help? Thank you, if so. Slaabovia out.
