The NS flag service is resurected, it now operates out of the East Pacific off site forum, currently it is only me working there, however anyone with flag making skills is welcome to join,
I ask that only one request per person at a time, as I am the only person operating it for the time being, so please stop by should you need one,

*note, I will only make flags tha fit the legal definitions of NS flags, IE NO swasticas, or other stuff Violet and Max have ruled illegal, such as gratuitus nekidness, or whatnot.

for applicants for work, if you are good, I will put a specific forum for persons to directly request work from you.


for persons needing flags, here are my guidlines

0, please post your request in the Ep offsite forum, in the NS Flag service category, I dont want to see the tech forum here lagged down,
1, please be patient, as I am currently alone,
2, please specify flag size, 107x71 (stock) 300x200 (my standard size)
there might be a slight size modification if you choose 300x200 as I
have to modify the size to keep a decent resolution,
3, describe what you want, and I will do my best to make it, for example
text you want on it, style of script, colors, specific images on it,
and a link to something similar if you ar ehaving trouble descrbing it.
4, your flag when done, will be posted in teh EP forum, so be sure to check
it often as I usually work in sporatic hours and in bursts of several
flags at a time.
5, also, as an Unpaid, Freelance Artist, I reserve the right to refuse any flag job for any reason, Photoshoppers Perogative, (to date I have only refused two flags one was a potential TOS violation, the other for Moral reasons)


The Address,
http://invisionfree.com/forums/The_East_Pacific/index.php
Loop stats,
to date I have made, nearly 200 flags, *edit, recounted, make that 500+*
usual turnaround time at peak business, 24 hours
average resolution, 300x200 at 5k

Also, here is a link to TROUSRS version of the service.

For those who don't know of Loop's skill, he made me a great flag from this description:

I would like a purple hippo with wings against a yellow background please.

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

And that's what I got! :D

Seem's he's not too nifty with the spelling though...

lol that is what working on 3 hours of sleep gets me, especially when I post it at like 4 in the morning.

if anyone wants to see some of my work there is a gallery at the EP ofsite forum, and abyone who has a Loop Flag please Feel free to post it there I would post it from my archives but I cannot remember all of the persons who I made them for,

A flag with the Greek letters for Corsairio, as best as you can correlate them, in Symbol Font, Maize Yellow against a Slate Blue bakground on the upper half of a tricolor. The other colours should be white with a bust of socrates off center like Spain's coat of arms is on their flag, and the third should be Black with a red geometric sphere off center like the bust in the white part.

Slate Blue for Deep Coastal Oceans
White for Civilized Thought, Purity, and Progressive Public Policy.
Black for great Mount Kokulith, representing foundation.
Yellow letters for our ascendency from Athens,
Socrates for our new reformist culture
Red Sphere for our passionate pursuit of knowledge

The Egalitarian Sultanate of Corsairio

Thanks Loop! :mrgreen:

I know that not all of these are particuarly good (the only one that I deem exceptional is the one for Qaaolchoura), but I also do not spend much time on my own flags (maybe five minutes tops except for Qaaolchoura) , and I could do a much better job.

Give me something to attempt.

What I meant was for you to type the string "CORSAIRIO" in whatever photoshop you use and put in in the slate blue tricolor. No translating.

Sorry for getting you lost in translation.

Side Note: I have created a paint-made image of what I think I want. Let's see how much better you can do.

What is wrong with Paint?

I only got Photoshop (Elements) a couple days ago, and before then I would always use Paint and nobody would notice.

The only thing that I have done in Photoshop so far is my entry for the Lancre Map Competition.

I would say Photoisland but I have a low opinion of them, when you link you have to use their link for auction, and sometimes it wont give you a link.

you should be able to upload them to your office, and link them here with it, that is whay I have been doing.

Ok I sense Photoisland would be a bad choice. Are there any other free wesites that allow remote linking?

Dear, NationStates Flag Service.

I was wondering if you could take my preesent flag and pump it up a bit. It isnt that exciting and i would really appreciate if you could make it really fancy. I dont care how this would be done. Keep all the words but do whatever you want to the rest of it.

Actually, I was wondering if you could do anything interesting with my flag...

It needs to have the stars on it though in this formation (it shows the structure of the government, the central one is the leader, the 5 ones surrounding that are the major departments, and the ones on the edges are the minor departments).

I think it's a bit boring, but meh...

11-10-2003, 09:26
I don't mean to be rude, but...
Well, there are some pretty pictures shown in this thread, but as flags...

Go see Good Flag, Bad Flag (http://www.nava.org/Publications/GFBF/gfbf-1.htm) for what a good flag should contain, and what it should avoid.

Notice particularly #1 (keep it simple) and #3 (esp. keeping to standard colors). These are the "rules" most often violated in the "flags" I've seen in this thread.

Now, anyone wants a complex, many-colored thing with lettering, that's fine. A-OK. No problem. Don't let anyone tell you you're "wrong". But...

If you want something that would be useful in "The Real World"™, or which has impact, the principles you'll find at that site are a good guide. :D

That's why I am endlessly surprised by the weekly newbie "6KB is too small" complaint. Look at my flag. Black and white, 2.5KB, and yet undeniably cool and in keeping with my national character. Half the time when newbies are exceeding 6KB with a 107x71 flag, they are using 24-bit colour or something, and have a gaudy flag that needs detailed examination before you spot all the features. All it takes is forethought and more careful consideration of aesthetics.

<snip image>
Thanks a lot.

For the star to look the same when rotated in 90° increments, it must have four-fold symmetry. I.e., it must have a number of points that is a multiple of four; 4, 8, 12, etc.

Or do you mean the flag must look the same when rotated 90°? That means it must be square, plus the elements must be distributed correctly.

On the upload page, it says the limit is 6KB, but I've found that not to be the case. It's actually slightly lower, so if it's just under 6k, it probably won't work. You'll need to get it down to around 5.5k or so.

Perhaps it's a true 6000 bytes, rather than 6 x 1024 = 6144 bytes.

The ones I did for Arribastan are 4KB.

I'm using 98SE if that makes a difference.

Arri: If you need any help or tips, ask here or in a "telegram" to me.

Loop, here's an unusual one for you.

Can you design a logo for Lancre?

I spoke to Sirocco, and the basic ideas was something to do with Lancre, hehehe.

No text, and it must have a transparent background...

I'll TM you a bit more info which I don't want public at this time.

Thanks.

AFAIK, everyone's using programs they have on their own computers.

I think no programs, of any sort, are available through the NationStates site, except the board and the nation-making stuff and so forth.

On a related note: when I right-clicked and "save picture"ed the flag in this thread, it insisted it was named "index.php". Saving it under that name meant I couldn't open it with my graphics program. Saving it as "index.jpg" produced a perfectly acceptable JPG file.

However, if I saved it as "index.gif" or "index.png", it couldn't be opened.

Falange, what name did it save as? If "index.php", it might be your computer saved the entire page, not just the picture. Did you try opening the saved file with I.E.?

Greetings. We would like to make a request for a flag. Here is a description of what we're looking for:

A flag with a total of 11 vertical alternating red and white stripes (i.e. 6 red and 5 white). In the middle of the flag, the head of an alligator with a soccer ball between its teeth. Above the alligator's head, a golden ring (signifying the One Ring from Lord of the Rings) set at something like a 30 degree angle.

For the alligator's head I was thinking of something along the lines of this:
http://www.gatorzone.com/images/shared/headgatorhead.gif
(Obviously I can't use that particular image as it's copywrited.) The color of the alligator doesn't matter. And it doesn't matter if it's the photo of a gator's head or an illustration. Whatever is easier.

Here is something similar to the ring I am looking for:
http://www.nationstates.net/images/flags/uploads/gollum.jpg

Also when finished, could you please post a copy of the flag with just the red and white stripes in addition to the complete flag as described above?

Thank you very much for your help!
