Ejh3k, in Redesign of the flag of Chad (so we don't confuse it with Romania any more). The waves symbolize Lake Chad, the rising sun a new beginning.

And Charlie brown.

akhenaten0, in Spider-Man 2 devs mixed up the Puerto Rican flag with the Cuban one

Could be worse; could be Catalonian independence

magnetosphere, in Flag map of Japanese prefectures. What do you think of the flags, unique and aesthetically pleasing designs, or glorified logos on single color backgrounds?

The Hokkaido flag is my personal favorite. The Nagano flag, meanwhile, looks like the forgettable logo from an off-brand energy drink.

I couldn’t agree more. Over the whole set it has these qualities, some bangers, some logos for non-existent companies.

Tokushima looks like a logistics company.

mihnt, in Today, October 18, is Alaska day, commemorating the transfer of Alaska from Russia to USA. This is the Alaskan state flag, voted the fifth best state/province flag in Canada and USA in 2001.

    I’d guess Ohio is there if only for the merit that it isn’t a rectangular bedsheet like its neighbors, and New Mexico because it is genuinely rad as hell.

    Its a dinosaur.

    callyral, in Today marks 20 years since Georgia changed its flag! They got rid of a, IMO quite ugly, brown flag, replacing it with the much prettier red and white flag of the medieval Kingdom of Georgia.

    that’s dark red to me not brown

    FireTower, in My own Maine flag redesign

    Ngl I wish every New England state had a pine tree on their flag. It’s such a great symbol for a flag. Recognizable, easy to prescribe meaning to, historically significant, and easy to draw.

    100% agree. I don't have pine trees on all my New England flag redesigns (just New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine), but I might make versions where all of them do, maybe with the same pine tree design.

    AfricanExpansionist, in My own Maine flag redesign

    This looks great!

    How would it be look if the star was a tad lower?

    Don’t sweat the similarities to other flags. This is still a great-looking design, and I love the color scheme

    cryptiod137, in My own Maine flag redesign

    I would say flip the colors to avoid the Mexico comparison, but red on the right and green on the left if often used in navigation.

    Maybe center the star to fit the theme of the North Star better? Although you don’t want to make a Christmas tree, so that might not work.

    litchralee,

    To be clear, are you suggesting that green should be on left or right, to match nautical/aeronautical practice?

    Ships and airplanes display green on the starboard (right) side. Although this would be a neat homage to the practice, I’m not aware if the people of Maine have that strong a connection to shipping or aviation, apart from being a coastal state and at the closest end of the country to flight paths to Europe.

    Dio, in Commission selects a final concept for the redesigned Minnesota state flag

    Somalia captured Minnesota? Blimey, when did that happen.

    glimse, in Moultrie Flag - American War of Independence Battle Flag that Inspired SC's Current Flag

    I know this predates Photoshop by a year or two but…it looks like someone just learned how to use the Warp tool but hasn’t yet learned to use it well

    To their credit they managed to pick two good flag colors and a cool shape.
