Now that we have a motto, time for a flag. I'll start us off with offerings: My sample is attached. Thoughts? |

Horizontally, there’s much space that bothers me for some reason. Can it be that the letters are so small that it somehow doesn’t get the attention of my eyes as much as I’d have liked? Try having the letters bigger or stretched a bit more across the flag, and if we don’t wish to sacrifice detail by making the dove smaller in size (if the letters size are increased) then perhaps it can be arranged by placing it in the background with a more obscure tint of colour? I hope you don’t mind; I experienced with different colour layers on your flag, and since I’m still stuck with purple I tried out some different tones (see attachements). I like the blue you’ve picked otherwise in general, very UN-esque along with its font, but I’m currently a purple advocate right now. Kyaha. |

As much as I like the idea of moulding red and blue, purple is proving to be a mighty difficult forum theme to find. I think it would be desirable to have the flag and forum theme the same colour, and this is currently looking more like blue than red. Thanks for the advice on width and spacing, I'll upload a tweaked version soon. I don't mind your edits at all, go forth and improve! If you want I'll post the original .xcf (native GIMP) file so you can edit your heart away. Edited by Terpomoj, 3 Aug 2010, 09:13 AM.

Ok, second try. Flag Attached. EDIT: Note-The font at the top didn't really work so I need to change it, but you get the idea. Edited by Terpomoj, 3 Aug 2010, 01:04 PM.

Good color. Just revert back to the earlier font on top and I think it's great. |

I've been thinking about the flag and wondering why we even have the region name and motto on it. No real country/union/regions do. When I get the chance I'll post a textless flag. Looking forward to Dzavyrica submitting a design. EDIT: Textless flag now attached. Edited by Terpomoj, 4 Aug 2010, 12:19 PM.

Oooh, pretty! And good point about the text - very few national flags have text on them (state flags in the US are a different story). I like what you've put together without text a lot, though. |

![]() I like it, but I am not sure this fits our region. I do like the flag with the dove and removed text. |

Nice! I have to agree though, not too sure of the relevance to the region, but looks great anyway! Reminds me of a navel ensign, maybe to a Scandinavian country? So are we agree with the dove or need more tweaking? |
