Holy shit. We're screwed

Nice flag, however, too see during a nuclear holocaust.

EDIT: Can anyone do a clean-up and resizing of this flag? It's from a Victoria 2 alternate flag pack I downloaded some time ago.

I used PhotoShop to make it from scratch. I took the Swedish flag, recoloured the Cross black, the background red. Then I stroked the black cross with white, before duplicating this layer. With the layer below I stroked it again (with a larger size) with black, creating the Black-white-black effect.

For the Prussian Eagle, I created a white circle, stroked with black, before finding an eagle on google images and pasting it over the circle. I then found an iron cross, colour overlayed it black, stroked it white, and placed it in the corner, duplicating the flag request, only at a larger size

I hope that helped, Gimp or paint.net would do the job, and you could probably do it with paint if you had some patience

I thought you had some kind of resizing program or something. My hopes were crushed.

I wish there was one, although films seem to think that one can magically "enhance" an image to ludicrous amounts, it's actually rather difficult to do

The flag raised by the Quiteñan revolutionaries who started a mass uprising against the Spanish colonial administration on the 10th of August, 1809. Had the rebellion not ended in utter defeat by the Spanish, this could had been our national flag as well.
