How about some nominations for the coolest looking flag? Mine: Seychelles love the prism like effect.(please super-patriots spare me the how many have died for the red, white and blue BS; this is trying to be light-hearted).

Originally posted by chancremechanicI think you should read my post, I would never say "dying for the red white and blue" (at least for what it represents) was BS; I served honorably in the United States Navy. I just didn't want to hear the standard line referring to our flag when I was asking for an aesthetic opinion. OK?

great flags! Texas! USA, Union Jack, Wales!!!!!!
early American flags: Don't Tread on Me aand early Texas Flag: Come and Take It with a cannon on it.
I just love flags.
BAck in the early 80's when the Iranians took a group of Americans hostage (that Ayatollah guy was in power) There was an anti Iranian rally on the campus of the university here. Bear in mind, this is a uni in South Texas with a large population of ...well.....cowboys :-).....
They burned the Iranian flag. only....they got it wrong and the flag they burned (homemade) was the Italian flag .😵

Or was it the West German one?
I always liked the Australian and NZ ones because of the stars for some reason.
