Weekly Flag Challenge: Discussion & Entries

I'll set up the poll tomorrow.
There is still an hour for last minute entries.

Thank you. Forgot that voting opens on the 9th, so I actually didn't have to hurry that much.

What are you guys talking about? It's the 9th already! And there's only 5 hours left until it's the 10th!
 
Why did your flag disappear ? Image hosting issues ? :confused:

Oh, friggin' hell. :mad:

I've fixed the original post, so now I just need Sov to update the poll.

On the same token, does anyone know of a decent and reliable image hosting service I can use for the smaller versions of the flags I create for the contest?
 
As I said in a PM to CyberPheonix, I can see the flag in both the original Entries thread and in the Poll thread.

Is anyone else still not seeing it?

Have you tried imgur?
 
Eh, just once, just once I'd like to win a round all by myself. :p My dreams have been shattered yet again. :D

That said, given that it's a tie, I think we'll just have to figure out the next topic together.

I've already PM-ed CyberPhoenix, we'll try to come up with something.
 
Honestly, I don't really have any ideas, so the floor is open to you. Have at it.

100 % sure ? I'm fully open to any ideas you might have.


Well, to avoid keeping you guys waiting, here are my suggestions:

Colonies of Slavic nations other than Russia in Asia
- Fairly straightforward. Make flags for OTL or ATL long-term colonies in Asia that were created by any of the Slavic nations of Europe, excepting Russia (to make the challenge a bit more tricky). Which part of Asia the colony is founded in doesn't really matter. You can go slightly ASB if you can't think of any other solution, but try to keep your entries at least somewhat realistic.

Flags of alternate Bantu nations/countries - Take an OTL or (at least slightly) ATL version of one of the many Bantu nations of subsaharan Africa, and create a flag for their ATL sovereign/independent country (pre-colonial or post-colonial). Note that the country can be somewhat based on an OTL one (Botswana, Kenya, Malawi, etc.), but has to have a different name and different borders. Also, OTL South Africa's "bantustans" don't count as an example, it has to be a proper country of its own. An ASB/fictional basis, e.g. Marvel Comics' Wakanda and the like, is not allowed either. Kindly avoid the pan-African tricolours if you can, they're boring and would be too parallelistic/anachronistic in most pre-20th century timelines.

So, guys, tell me which of these you'd prefer.
