Flag Design

Could someone please design me a flag and coat of arms for my nation? I'm looking for a simple design for the flag here, just a 300 x 200 rectangular flag, with a navy blue background, a red upside down crescent moon (think an upside down u), six yellow stars placed seemingly randomly around the flag, and a yellow meteor beneath it. For the sheild, I'm looking for a crescent bear standing up holding a beer stien with beer in it and a spear gun (harpoon) in the other.

The coat of arms isnt a necessity, but I would really appreciate a flag. I attempted it on paint, but it came out poorly.

And one last request for the both of them: Please Please Please PLEASE in .bmp or .png format, as I would like to edit them if I should need to. Thank you very much!

Thanks for the link, but apparently you have to register at there forums so they will accept a request. I suppose I'll just try harder on my own.

Don't give up hope so easily, Krataerbech. There are several active flagmakers who read this forum regularly and will try to do something for you as time permits, including my own Ausserland Flag Museum (http://www.vguild.hostrocket.com/museum/Flag_Museum.html). There's also a flag-making service on the regional forum of the International Democratic Union.

Actually, Ausser, if you'd like to make a new thread, that might not be a bad idea. I'm not sure how active Loop is (if at all).

I know you're not the only one doing flags, but I new thread might avoid confusion.

Hack, now you've got me really worried! We're starting to think alike. I was gonna suggest starting a new flag-making services thread and having the old one locked. :D

I'll try to write up something spiffy. In the mean time, if anyone has an off-site or Web site with a flag-making service, please post here and I'll mention it in the first post of the new thread.

Here is a good tutorial on how to make a flag with texture and everything that i used for my Pirates of the Burning Sea (mmorpg) flag:

Guide (http://talkingisnoise.googlepages.com/home)

and a good program to do it:

If you look at my flag in NationStates, you will see what I can do. If you want something like that, feel free to bug me.

Edit: I was bored. Take these if you want them.

Whoops, only now I look at your picture. Well, if you want the moon the other way, ask me.

Thank you very much! It's alright with the moon, I can flip it myself. Again, thank you!

Now that I think about it, it looks much better your way. I'll keep it like that.

As you mentioned, the IDU has a flag-making service on its forum. The URL is http://z10.invisionfree.com/IDU/index.php?

Thanks!
