Let's say your NS nation was located in say, the pacific or atlantic as an ocean. It's 2004 and you've been around for as long as anyone can remember. How would your flag, which most people would recognize, be accepted?

Colombia would hate us to death.

Because we have their flag. :D

The alternative was having some hot anime chick on it, but I'm not One Infinate Loop.

I think I'd be ok ...

My flag would probably come across pretty good, as it looks like it might actually be a flag.

Mine seems respectable.

I personally think the world wouldn't have anything against my flag. It's clean and simple.

By the way Keruvalia, did you do that yourself? It looks fantastic!

It's kind of large. It might be a pain in the ass to fly.

I think Jerusalem might be annoyed with mine...

Nod ... it's my own work.

What did you use to make it?


I'm considering making my flag smaller, but that too is a pain in the ass, heh.

I found out that NS will take a .gif extension pic, so you can make it nicely detailed without worrying too much about size.

I used Adobe Photoshop to make it.

I can't forsee any problems with mine.

None at all.

People liked it fine when it used to be the flag of Iran. Except for those fscking islamic revolutionaries.

I've had a few people comment mine was clever, and a few that I was a bastard. I don't care, I like it.

My flag is a real flag too, the Eureka flag and a part of Australian history. Well, sort of. I did a google search and found an Australian newspaper which thought that Labour are communists and he had imposed a USSR style hammer and sycle on the image of the Eureka flag because of course all labour movements are communistic. :rolleyes: Eureka flag (http://www.ausflag.com.au/flags/images/eureka.gif)

AHHHH! Bad spelling overload! *head explodes in a comedic fashion*

My flag Might make people wonder what my nation was up to, I mean the grim reaper holding the world, I say that seems like world domination, But that isn't my objective, I jus tlike that pic. My nation does revolve around mercanaries though (http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/target=display_nation/nation=nation_of_fortune)

I like your flag. ^_^ very nice.

My flag is a psychedelic one, it says love on it and the o is a peace sign. It might offend extremist, radical, conservatives, but other than that, i think it would be fine...lol.

My flag moves, so I guess not :p

Mine would be loved and adored by all!

Yeah, it's unorthodox, but it's oh so fun!

A few of mine. I'd be surprised if anyone knew what they were based on.

Mons of Japanese regions?

I'm not sure what mons are, but you're wrong.

I don't think so:

But then, they'd probably insist that we come up with a name, too....

That flag's fantastic! ROFL! ...and so appropriate. :D

Well, considering that my flag is a RL flag I think they would.

'Tis based on a real flag, with colours more relevant to my NS nation ;). The original blue and white version of this flag was used by a group of Australian miners in the mid 19th century as they striked and clashed with police. It's basically the Australian version of the US confederate/rebel flag, without the whole slave controversy.

I think it would be accepted...in certain circles :p

I think mine would be OK

http://www.nationstates.net/images/flags/uploads/conceptualists.jpg

Mine would be accepted, seeing as it's just one of the stock flags and it already belongs to some real-life country or other...

Meh. I should make myself a flag.

Hmm... I'm not sure that mine would be an appropriate flag in real life...

Ye gads, you have the Australian Prime Minister on your flag? :p

No, it's a self portrait. :)

I imagine mine would be fine.

A bit hard to duplicate by hand though. Heh.

No, it's a self portrait. :)

I dunno, it's a splitting image of John Howard.

A black flag is *definitely* good. :D

I don't think mine is too bad.

No, absolutely not. My flag is sad. Its representative of where I live though. :(

A whole nation flying the Jolly Roger :eek:

Hell YEAH!

Ouch. Good news is, some guy is offering free bus trips to Canada in this thread: http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=391699

How would your flag, which most people would recognize, be accepted?
They'd prolly think I was a UN puppet with my flag (the UN logo)

And then my other nation, Super-power, would probably be percieved as a bunch of rebels, as my flag is that of the rebel group (from a sci-fi) Anti-Earth United Government (AEUG)

I think I would be fine, i think the blue could be made flat if it was too much. Easy peasy.

I certainly think so. It's nice, clean, symbolic and easily recognised. Looks like something out of a sci-fi, though - but that was my intended effect!

The original version was created by me (a 10 minute job in MS Paint), but this one was made by my region leader, Thracia.
