I was looking through the list with flags, and I noticed this:

- There's a flag for the Netherlands Antilles. This country does not exist anymore since 10-10-10, the islands Curaçao, Sint Maarten and Aruba became semi-independent (still have the queen but are country's with a own president) and need they're own flags. The other islands became The Netherlands.

- South Sudan became independent on 9-6-11, North Sudan is still called Sudan.
 
I'll take this:

I'm fairly certain that I'm not the only who would do that.
 
Yes please. :drool:

@noisiaturismo: You do have a point there, and probably should be fixed. I also learned something from your post. Yay for random knowledge. :lol: 👍
 
If that stupid flag is on the list how about other flags?
Nazi Germany, Homosexual, GT flag, Foxhound.
 
The GT flag, yes. The GTP flag would work too, of course. But not a Nazi flag. And I don't think a homosexual flag would be good, neither would Foxhound. Perhaps a Forza flag though...

I think you are missing the point of Grayfox's post here. He is clearly having a dig at the MLP flag by suggesting some more controversial but real flags that people actually use as a unifying symbol (be it for good or evil) should be added or take precedence in consideration over a fictional flag from children's show about ponies.

Obviously the Nazi flag would never be considered an acceptable flag to add to the list. However I don't see what the issue would be with adding the gay rights flag apart from the fact that it's not actually representing a country or territory. Either way, the final say is with Jordan as he has to actually do the work when it comes to adding in more flags.
 
The point of having the flags is to provide a quick way to visually identify where a user is located in the world. I have no plans to add flags for anything outside of the ISO 1366-1 country list.

I made one when I was making maps in UT2004.

But they were hidden in a secret room.

Mine used this logo.

With added ripples to simulate a flag. on top of a pole.

I get what Jordan said but this flag needs to be added, at least temporarily. I haven't laughed like that in a long time.

Edit: For full disclosure I'm a proud Beagle owner.
 
Add it to your avatar.

And behold the power of google, type in fox you get a beagle.

This is a better flag that the MLP one.

How about the Conch Republic? :D

That was literally a one-day "rebellion"...I don't think peace-keeping forces were ever dispatched (except maybe to grab some drinks).

Besides, Florida's had about five countries lay claim to it at some point, and various republics came and went while land grants were sorted out.

Then again, our GTP map does show more Floridians than any other state, and if the UK can have Wales and Scotland...Nah, nobody's going to be happy until every province, state, prefecture, and abstract concept is available.

Checkered Flag, anyone?
