8/10. It has good colors and everything about it is pretty great, but it doesn’t feel like a flag really. Put the cat in some design maybe, like in a circle design of some kind. But it looks good like it is as well.

I like that it breaks with the traditional width that flags have, like Switzerland does as well. It has a very clean, elegant and aesthetically pleasing design. The colours are well chosen, they create clear but meaningful contrast, and the symbolism is aptly chosen. I have no negative remarks about this flag, so 9/10!

If you haven't got anything negative to say about it, shouldn't you be giving it a perfect score?

That aside, your flag is cool, the choice of colour is bold and it goes well. The design is remarkable as well. Only thing I don't like about it is that tree in the circle, I think the tree looks weird and doesn't really fit in. Something else could go in there.

8/10

I want to reserve the 10/10 for flags that truly blast me away. So, 9/10 is still a perfect score, but it's not the best flag that has ever existed on NationStates. Hopefully that makes sense?

As to the tree, the nation's theme is deeply tied in with forests and trees. The name Bosardia consists of the word 'bos' which means 'forest' in Dutch, and 'ardia' which comes from German 'Erde' and Dutch 'aarde' which both mean 'earth/soil'. So, the name Bosardia means 'forest soil/earth', which can loosely be understood as 'forest land'. Hopefully that explanation makes it clearer why this nation's primary symbol is a tree, and why it should fit in nicely :)

3/10. Honestly, I don't really have anything positive to say about this flag, but you don't get lower scores because at least I can look at it without wanting to die. The colors are not good together. Minty blue is already a very hard color to nail on a flag, and it does not pair well with black at all. The differing thicknesses of the lines is jarring, primarily because of the amount of difference between said lines. The symbol in the center itself is alright, but it just doesnt strike me as terribly flag like. And the letters at the bottom remind me more of the cover of a classified document than a banner. I think it needs a lot of work.

Wow I think that's the lowest I've gotten thus far. But I appreciate your criticism nonetheless.

And I love that so many users have been rating your OOC flag that you have to tell them not to. :lol2:

I mean could you at least give me a reason why you dislike the rest, or why you like the shovel? There really isnt much constructing I can do off of 6 words.

10/10, this flag has everything it needs. Great color contrast, symbolism of rabbits and socialism, and simple enough for a non-artist like me to draw.

6/10, it's symbolic, but the black blends into the red. Also the Liechtenstein crown is overused, there's a lot of NS flags with it. Make your own crown.

Really good! 8/10. I personally would simplify the temple in the center, but that’s just me

6.5/10. I like the Cambodian castle, it's relatively rare to see it used. I wonder why the bird is there though...
Also I am against communism/socialism, so I do not like seeing that USSR symbol there

7/10 - I'd say it's a pretty good start for a great flag, but the four-pointed star in the center is a rather basic and simplistic thing to place in the middle. Maybe come up with some much more profound symbol to place in the middle there (just don't go too overboard) and I'd say this could be a 10/10. The colors I actually really like, and the main design is pretty good for what you're trying to go for, it just needs something to make the center better.

BN: You can either use my current flag, or this one, I don't care which.

It's Among Us, so not much of a flag. 1/10

I am now seeing the other flag. Nice colour combinations, a bit complicated but not too much.Some five year olds could draw it by memory. 7.5/10

5/10. Honestly, it's so-so. Hot pink doesn't mic well with cream, and cream doesnt mix well with baby blue. The tree is much to complicated in my opinion, and none of the shapes go together. It just doesnt have a theme, none of it slots together. It's less that it does anything wrong, and more that, well, it doesnt do anything at all.

Damn, Ninja'd

For AN: 6/10. The design is too simple for me to comment on, the only real issue is that the green doesnt mesh well with the blue. Not bad at all, but, well, it's a bit too simple for my tastes.

BN, use my IC flag, as you can find in my sig.

A countryball isn't a flag, 0/10.

In all seriousness, your flag is nice. I like the symbolism and the colours are a bit weird but they go well together, I think.
