That, God-like talents and about 25 years doing it as a hobby.
Can I request a flag for the great and relevant state of East Tennessee/Franklin? IRL there was a very real possibility during the Civil War of it breaking away and becoming a new a state like West Virginia; dont worry if you think it looks shitty its a US state flag.
Also if anybody has an idea as to what the three stars on the Tennessean flag could represent now that E. Tenn. is gone thatd be cool too.

During the Civil war, XXIII corps of the Union Army had a strong association with East tennessee and its corps badge was a shield on a square field in different colour combinations. What if, as happened in other parts of the US OTL, this military insignia ended up inspiring the state flag so that you could have something like this, the lettering being added to *truly* make it look like a state flag. Could even lead to East Tennessee being nicknamed "The Shield State"
They could simply represent the fact that Tennessee refuses to recognise the loss of East-Tennessee.

My very shitty attempt at a flag for Franklin. You are free to change it up and add the date.

I love both of these so much! Thanks a ton guys!
Please can I have something that incorporates details of the Morecambe Coat of Arms (https://www.heraldry-wiki.com/heraldrywiki/index.php?title=Morecambe_and_Heysham) and the EU flag, without simply being "the coat of arms centred in the star circle".
It's for a local real-world pro-EU movement. If it's an inappropriate request for this site, please advise, and I'll delete the request.
Make sure to credit that guy on that website from the other side of the world won't you?
Hi,
I have no skills as a maker of Maps and flags and also lack the resources to make them but my time line The General, the Prime Minister and the Emperor could do with a map.
What I need is a map of North America with US marked as it was in 1812 (including Lousiana as a state) and the area of Minnesota Iowa Wisconsin and Illinois marked as the 'Union of Northern Tribes' (Tecumseh's confederacy) but extended North to the 50th parallel. All of Canada should be marked as British Canada much as we see it now but along the 50th parallel not the 49th but dipping down to the 49th near to Vancouver. The rest of the modern western US needs to be marked as New Spain (unorganised British territory) Except for Texas marked as British Texas. Below the Rio Grand just needs to be marked as British Central America (awaiting independence)
Lastly Florida needs to be marked as Spanish Florida
I hope that's not to complicated and will grateful for any help and of course credit anyone's work when I use it in the timeline.
Many thanks for your consideration.

when you say "a flag", which one of those places is it for ?
Also, just a personal opinion but it seems odd that the british would retain the name "new spain". When they conquered New France OTL, they renamed it to "Province of Quebec" after its capital and even though it wasn't a particularly french name, when they conquered acadia, they renamed it Nova Scotia.
I don't think there's any hard and fast rule one way or the other so as long as a request is not made for some extremist group or for a generally distasteful event, I doubt anyone would complain.
Oops forget the flag that's was a copy of an old post sorry I now have the flag (I'll edit it out)
It's still called new Spain because as I say it isn't organised yet and it makes sense in the context of the timeline and is meant to eventually get broken up but we're not there yet
My personal take on it. That being said, if you are going to have it printed by a flag maker, X_Eaglefrost_X's proposal might be better as some who use silkscreening will charge for each colour used.
I like this symbolism, @Ashtagon , but it could come over as liberal/libertarian or just generally capitalist. If it shall represent a "green" or social side of the EU, maybe use a different colour?
