I was gonna do the basque flag. It's the only flag that was modelled after the UK's Union flag (thanks fellas, but why??). I had a union flag, but I lost it after posting it (if anyone wants it, I hope they kept it somewhere). Here's a quick version of mine of the Irrukina... White | Green | Red | | | V V V >?000i:::::BBBB:::::i000? >::?000i:::BBBB:::i000?:: >::::?000i:BBBB:i000?:::: >::::::?000BBBB000?:::::: >BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB >BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB >::::::i000BBBB000i:::::: >::::i000?:BBBB:?000i:::: >::i000?:::BBBB:::?000i:: >i000?:::::BBBB:::::?000? Or for those red-green colour-blindness... White | Green | Red | | | V V V >::::::::::BBBB:::::::::: >::::::::::BBBB:::::::::: >::::::::::BBBB:::::::::: >::::::::::BBBB:::::::::: >BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB >BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB >::::::::::BBBB:::::::::: >::::::::::BBBB:::::::::: >::::::::::BBBB:::::::::: >::::::::::BBBB:::::::::: The nice thing about the union flag, is that there is no standard to it's aspect ratio. You can make the lines as thick as you like or as thin as you like provided that they are there. Most other countries have at least a standard aspect ratio. The French ensign, for example should be... 30:33:37 3 / ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: 2 ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: ..........WWWWWWWWWWW:::::::::::: I guess at sea the end bit (fly) flaps, so it's effective thickness is less than the bit next the pole (hoist). Here for good measure is the World's most boring flag... > >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW >WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW > It's white and it's about square. It's the flag used by the Bourbons up to 1789, and perhaps between 1815 and 1830. The royal standard had all sorts of gold thread, fleurs-de-lys, holograms, and stuff, but the ordinary one was like this. The award for the best runner up must go to Libya... > >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG >GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG > Green. 2:1.
