New Regional Flag Creation

I was bored today and made a new flag for the World Alliance. If we're deciding on a new constitution and way of running things, why don't we change the regional flag as well?

Current flag: http://dark.nationstates.net/images/flags/uploads/rflags/world_alliance__246839.png

My flag:

Thoughts? Suggestions?

As a Roman nation I appreciate the inclusion of the Roman laurels. On another note, I'm assuming it won't be this low res in the future?

Overall, a very nice idea. You get my approval.

Well, I just realized how I could make it look much better. In the current one, I shrunk the map first, then painted over the continents, which made them a bit poofy looking. I could go back and paint the bigger map and then shrink it, which would make the map more accurate. Also, the flag was a little higher res(I'm pretty sure), that's just how it looks after you put the ripple effect thing.

Here's the de-ripplized flag.

Looks good, but I think it would look better with the World Alliance initials somewhere, maybe on the top or bottom of the flag?

Alright, I'm trying to picture where it would look good. And what color do you think? I think it would look better written all the way out, instead of initials, but I'm not sure.

Written all the way would be even better. And the color would probably look best matching with the laurels? Somewhere near that color scheme or a color that makes it pops out. As for the position, I think it would look best at the bottom of the flag, near where the laurels meet

I made a version of the flag with better continents.

Here is the flag with the words: https://i.imgur.com/cvYyY3w.png

And the flag without the words, in case someone else can put them there better: https://i.imgur.com/65zXIjG.png

I finally saw it! It is very nice :-)


As for its adoption, we could hold a regional survey first then formally submit it to the Security Council for final approval or rejection.


And as for its looks, sorry but I thought it looks so not good with the first map adopted because it looks so ragged LOL but the new one has improved a lot. And I suggest if we put an OUTLINE on the globe and the name of the World Alliance doesn't fit where it was placed. But it must be on the Flag.

What do you mean by outline?

Ugly. Present flag better

Could you at least provide some valid criticism?

I made two new flags(this time with a better program than paint!):

This one is better with the name of the World Alliance. I was only thinking of putting the 'WA' initials only but I thought we could be confused with the World Assembly lol


What I meant with the outline is the blue circle representing the globe should have a black line around it.

Like this?

Actually, those words were a little hard to read, so I made this

That looks like a good final draft to me.

I like the current WA flag a lot. Just put a globe in between the laurels and wrap the World Alliance over the top of it.

Beautiful Flag :-) I guess we could consider this as an option in replacing the Flag but this will still be subject to a regionwide survey. I guess we need to have another option...

Good idea. Why not try experimenting putting the globe of Xolox inside the current WA Flag and replace the words 'World Alliance' inside???

I'm not sure if this one looks good for others.


But for me it isn't :-D

Do you want me to change it? Also, how many flags do you think we'd need before we start a survey on the best flag?

Oh okay, so we can initiate a regional poll now. We have three options already,

1) The new design
2) The old flag with new design
3) The current flag


Are you happy with this now?

Yeah that sounds fine!

Okay, you can make a new thread here in the format of a poll. Please make sure you include the three images of the Flag. Thereafter, please inform me so I could send a mass TG to the region so we could ask for everyone's opinion.

There you go!
