Very nice! The colours compliment each other wonderfully, the symbolism is meaningful, and the flag is recognizable without going overboard on complexity. Overall, it's unique, composed well, and makes great use of balance and symmetry. 10/10

I like it. Very modern logo with an archaic design (pennant). 8.5/10

Quite nice indeed. Any combination of red and yellow shades - like here with gold and burgundy - is usually a pleasant and collaboratory colour scheme in a bicolour, and complement each other nicely. The symbol - which without any prior knowledge I'm guessing is a lynx) is well sized and well placed; although the particularly startled look on it's face may not exactly inspire awe. The ripple-flag effect, in my opinion, only obscures a flag further and doesn't help a flag - but with a relatively simple design as here it's not too bad. Also reminds me of the kingdom banners from Mount and Blade: Warband, so that's a plus.
Overall, a solid 6.9 (nice) / 10 .

I really like that flag, I think the colours mix pretty well. While I've seen the middle three flag combo from the SA Union flag used by many others this is the first time I've seen it being used well - the left and right flag match perfectly with the two background colours, while the middle one offers a surprisingly nice contrast to the other colours being used without it clashing.

Therefore I'd give this a 9/10! :-)

It’s alright. I dunno, just not extremely interesting. I sound really mean saying that but. It’s not something that sticks out too much. Kinda bland? I’d give it a 6/10. Still recognizable. Just bland.

Ngl I normally am a bit shy posting here between a bad history and interesting use of colors, but I just have to say how nice this flag is.
Like. I'm sure not everyone will agree, but the sheer creative way of showing simplicity with a unique but highly complementary colour palette that's easy on the eyes?

Easily an 11/10 for me, legit one of the nicest flags I think I've seen.

Wow. I'm tempted to say 10/10. Simple, actually flag-like (a lot of flags fall into the trap of being minimalist art drawn in 3:2), and it uses orange, which is masssively underrated. And there's fimbriation, too! Great flag.

Great design (Basically unitarian, green-party Tennessee)
however
Star is not centered on either the hoist's first "square", the center of the green field, or the center of the flag. so maybe fix that. Colors are great though!

8/10. The red band fucks with me, but that doesn't mean it's a bad thing - it actually complements the design well.

The chain represents authoritarianism well and gives off that specific vibe without defaulting to the swapsticka, so points for creativity. It reminds me of Wolfenstein-type alt-history, which compliments your nation well. 9/10

I don't usually describe flags as quaint, but there's something about this flag that is just so wonderful. Looking at it actually makes me smile, and the parchment tone is just so easy on the eyes. Not to mention the dog, which is beautifully unique, along with an inviting wreath and poppy. Compositionally speaking, this flag is nothing special. But I recognize its beauty and significance so 8/10.

Uncommon layout. I personally like it [+1.5]
Incorporates a border which you don't see often [+1.5]
Big two/three colors work fine for a flag [+1]
Alignment of elements works out well [+1]
Easy to remember and to draw to some degree of accuracy [+1]
Recognizable from a distance [+1]

7/10

Thin secondary border and lines between swords are a bit awkward [-1]
Pinwheel star is complex as opposed to a solid white star shape [-0.5]
Swords are a little crusty but this is more of a graphics thing than a flag design thing [-0]

Total: 5.5/10

Hi, it's been a while. If you're seeing this then it means what I'm working on is not quite done yet. You can still read my old stuff but it's probably not canon anymore. I'll try to get something up soon. It may or may not involve wizards.

The fact that the arrow is pointed downwards gives me negative vibes, as does the unexciting grey background. Altogether the design is a bit minimalist and I can't figure out what it's supposed to symbolize. 3/10

Your flag gives off a warm feeling, but it's not balanced. The addition of some whites and blues/greens could help it. 9/10

I really like the idea and the flag overall, my only issue is the blue of the Dutch flag being very similar to the blue outside the canton, and that makes it a bit weird 8/10

6/10 I really dislike the symbol. It's so unnecessarily complex and just doesn't fit in with the rest of the flag. The background colours however are quite nice. The flag fits you perfectly though, so you earn 5 points for that.

Flag design: 1/5

Suiting your nation: 5/5

I think it's a really unique design and shape, though the border around the heraldry is kind of hard on my eyes (no offense!), 7.5/10

It's a good design. It's visually attractive, simple, and follows the principles of vexillology well. 10/10.
