After much deliberation between the Emperor and his Council, it has been decided to allow the Flag Service to accept international commissions. Standard pricing for a commission is 13,000 Imperial Dollars, which is equivalent to 10,000 US Dollars*. We can guarantee no time frame; it will take as long as it takes to deliver a quality product.

*Pricing is subject to scaling due to difficulty and time the commission takes to complete. The commissioner will be charged after the commission has been completed in order to facilitate a proper scaling.

Okay here goes, our national flag is currently just the following emblem:

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

We would like to have a more stylish flag with a a dark blue border for this emblem or soemthing of that description which is a small enough fiel for NS.

If this is succesful, future contracts for the amred forces flags will be considered.

EDIT: IF you can change the words beneath to "Peace Through Strength" that would be even better.

Could I please have a flag which is similar to the UK flag, but with a Roman eagle and the word PRAE in a kind of Latin script. I would like dark blue-purple and red. If you want to add anything else (like our national animal the cat, alough that will be hard to look good) or change anything to look better then feel free to do so. Thankyou.

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

That is my flag currently. I would like something with a bit more flair, and more defined. Also, being on-center would be nice.

United Elias: We'll get to work right away on your commission. Is there any preference of background color?

Praetonia: You will have to be more specific in how you want your flag to be like that of the United Kingdom. (All of my flags shown, which doesn't include the SU flag, are variations of a UK flag.)

Feazanthia: You'll have to give us more detail on what you want for a flag. Any specific theme, some form of heraldic symbol, colors, anything that would give us a starting point from which to work from.

United Elias: Here's the finished product. It's under the 6k limit, so it will display properly.

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/United-Elias.gif

Price: 10,000 USD, it took a while to get together properly.

Bumb

I would like my current flag with a chinese dragon over it, thats all

[I'm not in the habit of editing current flags. If you want me to make a new one similar to what you have from scratch, that's fine, but I don't edit already made flags. It's an editing issue.]

how about a chinese dragon with a background of flames?

[I could... but a lot of my flags are cobbled together from RL flags and edited accoridngly. I can't guarantee quality if you want that.]

[I could... but a lot of my flags are cobbled together from RL flags and edited accoridngly. I can't guarantee quality if you want that.] just have a go! :D

"The Allied States of Rotovia wishes to commision a flag as follows; light blue background, broken by a diagonal white stripe from the top left to bottem right corners, set in a small circle would be either a crown or something of an ornate nature"

-Ministry of This Really Could Have Been OOC

The PRKS would like to commission a flag that looks like the following:

a circle crest of arms with a chevron that is cut by two lines: one at the bottom and one behind. The one on the bottom is green; the one behind is dark blue; with the chevron a mountain [gray]. behind the mountain are the three phases of the moon: left crescent [black], right crescent [white], and a full yellow moon aligned to the peak of the mt. in the middle of the mountain is a black phase. the sky should be light blue. the crest is in the middle of the flag [which is white].

United Elias: Here's the finished product. It's under the 6k limit, so it will display properly.

Price: 10,000 USD, it took a while to get together properly.

Okay good start but lets go a little further, instead of the border I would like the Eagle to be emblazoned over this:

http://expedition.bensenville.lib.il.us/MiddleEast/Flags/Yemen.jpg

In a similar way to this:

http://www.wolfram.demon.co.uk/russia_flag_mw.gif

I like the Eagle all being in gold but I would like the coloured stripes on the shield to be re inserted onto it except they should be a pair of dark blue ones as there will be enough of black and red on the background.

One last thing, the motto is Peace Through Strength not Strength through Peace.

I hope this makes sense and thank you very much for an efficient and excellent quality service.

Credonia requests a new flag be created to TRULY represent the Credonian Empire.

The flag should be red, white and blue, with gold stars. On the flag, there should be the following emblems: Crown (representing the Credonian royalty), ancient book (representing knowledge), midevil axe (representing power), and an eagle (representing liberty and democracy).

Just use the USA flag.

if i wanted the US flag, i wouldnt be asking for one to be made, now would I..mind ur own damn business

The imperium wishes for the current flag to be uplheld but are idiotic flag makers do not no how to create such a grand flag in the right amount of Kb so we would be most apreeciative if you could deliver us our grand flag in the right kb .we will even pay an extra 20,000 US Dollars for it.

Because of the current workload, orders will not be taken past this message until futher notice. We would also like to ask that no comments or messages be left unless they are for or about a commission.

[In other words, don't do what Holy Panooly did.]

United Elias: Here's your second flag. I'm afraid that because of the second try the price will have to be upped to 15,000 USD.

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/United_Elias.gif

Rotovia: I believe this is what you were looking for? Standard commission fees apply for this one.

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/United_Elias.gif

very nice, just one more thing, sorry to be a pain, just one more thing, can you make the colours on the shield both navy blue instead of red and black and is it possible to have the writing curved a bit like on the original.
Also I would prefer the text in blue if possible and in Times New Roman. We'll pay whatever it costs! :lol:

[Yeah, the color changes are doable, but as far as I know bending text in Photoshop is not, or at least not in the version I have.]

Dracun Imperium: This flag was simple, so your charge will only be 5,000 USD.

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/Dracun-Imperium.gif

The Government of Falastur have debated this, and have decided to commission a flag from this exception service.

The Falasturian flag, if possible, should be based around the standard British flag (ie in the background or something). In addition, we would like a crown to be placed in the top right corner, and crossed swords in the bottom left. Finally (and if it gets too complicated or whatever, then skip this bit) we would like a coat of arms to be placed in the centre of the flag. (Don't really care what coat of arms, anything is fine 8) ).

We thank you for your time.....

Falastur: We hope this is satisfactory. Because we could not complete you commission to a T, you will recieve a discount rate of 50%. You total comes to 5,000 USD.

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/Falastur.gif


[The flag that I used as a base was the flag for the City of London, I hope that's close enough for your puposes. I couldn't use the real UK flag because it has a tendency to make images far too big to use as flags.]

OOC Hey, that's great, thanks!

IC The Government of Falastur thanks Scandinavian States most humbly for their service, and is wiring the money to you at this moment in time.

The new flag is being duplicated and redistributed, ready for a nation-wide Raising of the Flag service tomorrow morning, when at every official Falasturian building sporting a flag-pole, the new flag wil be hoisted for the first time. It is a great honour for us to witness such an event.

Thanks. Anyhow I've decided a liked thesecond draft better and since I'd alredy saved it when you replaced the picture, you don't need to redo it for me. I have modified the text with PhotoBase a little bit but its somehting like 22kb.

http://img12.photobucket.com/albums/v36/United-Elias/ueflag3.jpg

What we can do to make it a smaller file?

P.S. Thanks a lot, great job.

[I have Photoshop and it has a Save For Web feature that allows you to manipulate the image to get the proper file size. If you would use the one I have up now, I can do it with the Red and Black once the rest of my commissions clear.]

Thanks that would be appreciated, if you could do it soon that would be even better. BTW your other commisions are all great to and we'll soon be approcahing you to make us flags for our armed forces and colonies as well.

We look forward to the challenge.

Kaufmanstad desires a flag. Our idea for it is simple: A flag like that of Scotland's, but instead of a blue field, a green one.
Could you also make a naval ensign and jack? These flags will be similar to the national flag.

Kaufmanstad: Yes, we'd be glad to make naval ensign and jack. However, we require some detail as to how you would like them to look.

For my naval ensign, hmmm... It would be Kaufmanstad flag in the canton, and in the rest of the flag, a field of blue. The jack will be the Kaufmanstad flag, but the instead of a white cross, a blue one.

The Island States could use a cleaned-up version of it's flag.

[TIS: That presents the same problem that another did, I can't do flags from scratch and I don't edit ones already made. If you can think of another design, I'd be happy to help.]

That will be five thousand per flag, we hope the Kaufmanstadi government is pleased with the results.

Kay Son
http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/Kay-Son.gif

Because of the simplicity of doing this flag and the fact that we could fulfill your first request, we only ask 5,000 USD for the commission. If something needs to be changed, we will do so free of charge.

The Kaufmanstad Congress is very pleased and $15,000 has been wired to you.

Rotovia: I believe this is what you were looking for? Standard commission fees apply for this one.

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/Rotovia.gif"We do not wish to be split hairs, however could the crown and circle be placed in the center of the diagonal line a slightly larger. We are willing to pay an addition $40,000 for these amendments"

Minsitry of This Really Could Have Been OOC

Will this be satisfactory?

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/Rotovia.gif

And we can only accept an additional 5,000, you generous offer is too much for the simply correction.

have you had a chance to resize my flag yet?

have you had a chance to resize my flag yet?

[No, I've been doing commissions. I'll get to it tonight if I can.]

Can you make a flag for me.
can you make it black with Six Stars or whatever which represents Six Dominions. And a Soviet Emblem. Make it like a original Scandinavian Flag, eg the Danneborg or the Swedish Cross ect ect.

Please suprise me. :wink:
I'll pay you 4 million

Can you make a Flag like this, but with a Dollar Sign in the middle insted of the Coat of Arms (Keep the Eagle). I'll pay you 10 Million Dollars.

http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/images/m/md^army.gif

We would like to purchase 4 flags in all. We would like a newer national flag. I would like incorperated in it a picture of the amount of land in 1804 Louisiana Purchase and somewhere a communist hammer and sickle.

Now for our naval flag I was thinking of something like this.(sorry about the size its the smallest I could find)
http://www.bornintheussr.com/f100.jpg

For our airforce anf army flags we leave up to you to make. We want it to be some what like the Naval flag but not exactly the same. We hope that you will accept or order and we will pay your 1 million for the 4 flags. If you think that you should get more than so be it. Make them to the best of your skills comrade.

Okay, scale down to Two Million now.

Porlania: While we thank you for the generous payment offer, we only ask for the standard 10,000 dollar commission fee.

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/Porlania.gif

[No, I've been doing commissions. I'll get to it tonight if I can.]


thanks.

Okay, what I need is the following. Sorry for not getting to you sooner.

I would like some sort of Buddha in the foreground, with the silhouete of a battleship in the background. The far back colors of the flag will be a diagonal split of black and sea-blue. That enough detail?

We thank you for your commission and will get working on it as soon as possible.

[Which will be tomorrow at the earliest for both you and United Elias.]

[I decided to keep these simple, just different bands to differentiate the armed forces from each other.]

how are you going with mine SS? :)

Double Post

have you recived my order?

just curious :wink:

Oh by the way, can you make an army, navy and airforce flag too?
It's not neccessary

[TAR: I just upgraded to Photoshop 7 and don't yet have the necessary filters to create fire. I can manage the chinese dragon bit just fine right now, but I'm going to need a while to get the filters.

Swedish Dominions: No, I haven't would you care to restate your commission request?]

Can you make a flag for me.
can you make it black with Six Stars or whatever which represents Six Dominions. And a Soviet Emblem. Make it like a original Scandinavian Flag, eg the Danneborg or the Swedish Cross ect ect.

Please suprise me. :wink:
I'll pay you 4 million

While we are pleased and slightly amused at these offers to pay us millions of dollars for this service, we do not think it necessary to pay us more than the standard commission fee of 10,000 USD for most of these commissions.

Swedish Dominions
http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/Swedish-Dominions.gif

Standard commission fee applies for this flag.

How's my flag coming. I don't know if it'd be complicated or not.

How's my flag coming. I don't know if it'd be complicated or not.

We currently have no flag (bar the US flag from default), although we wish for us to design us one, if this is possible. We will pay generously if we accept the new design.

Independant Hitman: We'd be happy to, but we need, at the very least, some general guidelines so that you are more likely to accept any design we come up with the first time through.

Faezanthia: We appologize, your order lost in the scramble to complete commissions. We'll get to working on it ASAP.

and I'm here as well for that little fix.

Very well.

We would primarily want something blue, possibly with a ship somewhere on the flag to show our naval heritage, with maybe some white or possibly red incorporated.

Basically i have no idea what i want!! :(

Nice Flag :wink:

Can you make Army, navy and Airforce Flags? They must have the same structure as the orginal flag.

Army: A Bear with a sword (if Possible)
Navy: A Seal with a Sword (if Possible)
Airforce: An Eagle with a Bomb (if Possible)

I'll pay you 4 Million. See it as a gift :wink:

Will this be satisfactory?

http://img56.photobucket.com/albums/v172/NSFlags/Rotovia.gif

And we can only accept an additional 5,000, you generous offer is too much for the simply correction."This flag is perfect and a blank cheque will be delivered to your flagmakers. Please fill in what you believe to be a fair amount. A thousand thanks for an excellent job"

Ministry of This Really Could Be OOC

my flag resized yet?

If those above are impossible to do, then do something else.
SUPRISE ME :lol:

United Elias: Our appologies, we have been occupied elsewhere creating battle standards for the new armies. We will get to your task as soon as humanly possible at no charge.

Swedish Dominions: We have tried several possible resolutions to your commission and all have failed. We are sorry to say that your commission is beyond our skill level. Might we suggest finding someone who specializes in the creation of crests and heraldic devices and then bringing them to us to create a flag?

Greetings from the Dominion of Coruna,
Would you be willing to make a few regional flags a region? A few battle standards etc. I'll let you know exactly what I'm thinking if you respond in the positive. Looking at your other stuff, nice work.

TERRIFIC WORK!! :lol:

I'll pay you 1 000 000 for the nice work.....

*cough*

Inyurface: Unfortunately, we do not modify current national flags.

[Sorry, UE, I keep putting it off. It's free of charge once I get around to it.]

Then could you please use that flag as template... as an illustration of what we want? If so, please feel free to take artistic license and freelance your own design. Thank you.

Ya, I want a flag for all thing. I want a white plain flag, a rose in the middle, and maybe a colored X in the flag. It's a little vauge yes, so just surprise me. Use my name as a reference. I will pay the standard 5000 dollars and any extra costs. As soon as the flag is done, it shall be wired. Thank you.

President Sergei Ilyanov of the Commonwealth of Rose.
UN Delegate of the New Roman Empire.

OOC: Telegram me when it's done, if possible.

We understand that your company is already overburdened with orders, but if at all possible, we would like to put in the following requests:

NATIONAL FLAG:
We rather like the Falastur flag and our current flag. We request a dark red/crimson background, quartered by a cross. Cross will be white or black, with stripes of the alternate color running within (use your discretion in deciding the design, as long as it follows the basic design of the cross in our current flag). Outside edges of the cross must be black. An Imperial German cross (preferably one w/an outline) will be in the top-left corner.
DUCAL FLAG:
We request it be imposing but regal. Color should be rich and deep. We request 3 versions of the flag with different background colors: crimson, navy, and white. Emblazoned in the center will be a heraldric-looking device (pick something), with the words "PRO POPULO" in a scroll-like thing below it.
ARMY FLAG:
Same design as the national flag, but it shall be of a deep forest green background. Also, the background of the upper-left quarter (with the cross) shall be white. In the lower-right quarter, place a golden emblem with crossed sabers.
NAVY FLAG:
Same design as the army flag, but instead of deep forest green, it shall be replaced with navy blue. In the lower-right quarter, place a golden emblem of an anchor (if you wish, there may be ropes around the anchor).
AIR FORCE FLAG:
Same design as the army flag, but instead of deep forest green, it shall be replaces with white (yes, all quarters are white for this flag). In the lower-right corner, place a golden emblem of a wing.
COAST GUARD FLAG:
Same design as the army flag, but instead of deep forest green, it shall be replaced by a light blue (or at least lighter than the navy flag). In the lower-right corner, place a golden emblem of a shield.
DIPLOMATIC SERVICE FLAG:
White background, quartered by a crimson cross (like the Falastur flag), Imperial German cross in the upper-left quarter, crown or some sort of heraldric symbol in the lower-right quarter.

Considering the size of our order, we are currently putting down a $5million deposit. Although the deposit itself is already much larger than the normal price of these flags, if you feel that more compensation is needed, it will be paid in full upon the completion of the flags. Owing to the number of orders you are receiving, we are prepared to wait a while for the completion of these flags. Please do not feel rushed to complete them.

Thank you,
--HENRY BLACK, Prime Minister of Parliament

[Sorry, UE, I keep putting it off. It's free of charge once I get around to it.]

Can I expect it soon?

Inyurface: Unfortunately, we will still have to decline your commission. This is not out of any national malice, it's just well out of the scope of what we normally do. We would some other flagmaker who is used to taking liscence with their works.

The Island of Rose: We will accept your commission but we would like to take this time to remind everyone that the standard commission fee is 10,000 dollars.

Monte Ozarka: We will do our best and only request 10,000 per flag.


[Yeah, I'll get to work on it tommorow, I've been feeling off and that's why I've been procrastinating.]

Scandavian States, we will pay you 20 Million to make a flag for us.

We would like one of those Nazi Iron Eagles, but with a Hammer and Sickle in place of the Swastika in the wreath on a back ground that you think will look good.

[Um, no offense Artista, but do you really expect me to accept this commission when the Imperial Flag Service is a direct arm of the executive branch? We are, after all, at war. Whether or not I accept this commission later depends largely on what Allanea decides to do in relation to Edolia's ultimatem.]

[ooc: I actually plan on exiting this war. You can accept the money now, and complete it after the war is over?]

The upper left corner and the bottom right corner are to be split by a thick diagonal line, dividing the flag into three sections. The midsection (the line) is to be red. The corner sections (both) are to be black. A visible, yet somewhat thin line between each section is to be yellow. There is to be a small five pointed, vertically symmetric star, which is also yellow.

[Guys, I'm sorry to say that I'm not going to do flags as a public service anymore. I'll probably finish up UE's flag but that's because he was one of my first customers.]
