Hey, I just registered here and I've got my uber Empire of a Thousand Alliances, which is stationed out in Bulk Space which I recently created as well, and instead of making a sweet flag just for a sweet looking flag, I'd thought I'd win a flag contest to :D - or will I??
Theres no 'draw a flag with a sun and red and white colors' rules, just make a flag, any flag, and the universally accepted 'sweetest' one WINS!!!. Well, there is a rule, and thats that you draw it during the contest time, no using flags you've already drawn, kk? Lets see we come up with :D

Welcome to NationStates, Empire of A Thousand Alliances! I've moved this to Gameplay, where it will be better recieved.
Who knows, I may cook you up a flag or two myself ... :)
Have a wonderful day,
~ Tsar the Mod.

Heres my first try at a flag. Its not perfect, but represents my location exellently. The picture is of the artifically generated Anamoli created in the space time continum that created a passage into Bulk Space, were my Empire resides. Bulk Space was first colonized in 3017.
If anybody wants it I can change the text to whatever they want and make another one for myself :) i would prefer if they lived in Bulk Space though..

That is one of the most amazing flags I've seen on NationStates. That's awesome!

I could make you one, Archiael, just tell me the color sheme, what you want in it, a description of your utopia, and how much techyness you want in it (that white pixel wide writing and stuff), and I should get you somethin cool :)

Flag submission (I believe in maintaining traditionalism in flag designs)...

Awww, I got online and now you're off! Well, I'll cya there next time you get on. Btw, your current flag is pretty nice!
Nice submission Tekania, but I would try to use up the rest of the flag-space, maybe with a duo-colored background. The text is a bit hard to read, not that much of a problem but I wouldnt jam in the nations motto in there. Very nice traditional seal though, thats pretty cool :D All around, pretty nice. Also, I am honored that you put my nation's name in there, heh I'm almost concidering using it :D
..Though the 'so far so good..' thing is just a space filler until I can think of a truly witty and meaningful motto ;)
Updated flag.... St. Andrews "white cross"... "X" form added to field background.

New Libya, here is the flag you requested in MSNM:

Gamtop, I can make you one, but it would be the last free flag I make for a while. This is a flag making contest, not flag making service! If you want a free flag, then you'll have to join my region. I will be contacting you gamtop for color sheme and stuff like that.

This along the lines of what you're looking for?
Black - Space
White - Peace
Red - Power
Lion - Strength
Stars - A few of the thousand worlds (perhaps capital planets?)

Whoa, pretty sweet. Again, I am honored to have a flag drawn for me :) Maybe we could make a few for the more needy?
Criteria for Flag Designs for others:
1. National Color Scheme
2. Crest or Seal present for flag?
3. National Animal?
4. Heraldic Imagry? (Saltiers [X], Chevrons (^), etc.)...
I also design seals...

Tekania, is that new? The only rules for the game are that you design it new, during the length of the contest (doenst have to specificly be for it though). Sorry if you missed that..
Not bad pics btw, just a little to blurry..

Well, it looks as if this is everybody who's going to be competing.
So I ask you people of NationStates, what has been the best flag made here?! Your vote counts!

Flag of Nordwind (http://www.nationstates.net/images/flags/uploads/nordwind.jpg)
That's my flag. Pretty basic, traditional flag design...just Odin's Triangle which is the national symbol of my country, surrounded by a few viking runes. All I have to work with is MS Paint...
