previous: Welcome to /extraflags/, a lovely spin-off of /flag/ except its a general for users with extra flags to discuss flags, extra flags, and autistic activities while funposting. don't have extra flags? get extra flags :^)
>What are extra flags? Extra Flags is an open-source and non-malicious plugin that adds regional flags, like states and provinces, to the already existing national flags on Jow Forums, Jow Forums, /sp/, and Jow Forums, by storing users' post number along with the selected regional flags, and retrieving it from a database when a thread is loaded. You can add your region's flag by requesting it on the GitHub page.
Very based. I don't know the meaning of it but if I were to guess: >White = the snow we get >Blue = the Great Lakes >Green = the big ass forests we have >Animal = the Animal and shit ton of wildlife everywhere

fuck meaning aesthetics >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>shit>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>meaning what matter is that looks good, its cool when meaning adds to the desing, but none cares about the blood shed by those who gave us freedom
Brody Williams
Top notch
Oliver Cruz
>fuck meaning That's pretty blue pilled of you. Meaning is what makes the flag honestly. The design is important to yes, but so is the meaning. It's 50/50. The Detroit flag is full of meaning and looks cool as fuck too. Though I do agree that practically no one cares about the meaning. As much as I hate that no one cares, it's true. It should change.
Tampa's flag is based because of its meaning, not because of its design. Same as Ybor's. South Korea's flag is aesthetic as fuck, and it isn't because of its appearance but rather because of its meaning
Do you have many flags of ancient nations surviving to modern day?
I found some really nice ones. But when I look at choices made for FreeCiv for example, some are pretty arbitrary (Romans is flag of a Czech city made to look Roman...). I think it would've been better for them to go with Civ 4/5/6 style symbols and one or two main colours per nation instead.
The problem is generally most I found are in pre-French tricolour style, some symbol on an one colour banner. Which is what historical monarchies used largely. I like more original ones used OTL, like that of Assyrians or Copts (Ancient Egyptians). They would look really well as a state flag and shame they're not used for anything else than their mostly ethno-religious group really.
By the way, did you guys even found any flags for cities in India?
I am surprised nothing remained from British times.
I know there are seals for their regions, and even found some flags for those, but they were very lazy and uninspired.
Adam Peterson
looks like the american eagle logo
Noah Anderson
india has shit flags and its all flagged to the second level but nothing more
Juan Cooper
I imagine the use of smaller standards would have been more popular than the use of a single flag over a wide spread of area. Given the lack of communication and travel, its easier to have localized group identity than to share identity with tribes and settlements you'll never meet. So apart from royal or familial standards we don't really see a rise in popularity national flags until later on.
What ever happened to flag ratio? The site is just an empty chan clone now.
Brayden Sanders
It was always a mostly empty chan clone, now PK is basically dead so it's an even emptier one.
Jordan Perry
Done, but had to open it in Firefox. Thought it would detect my region, which is wrong, it shows me as Silesia on other sites.
I normally use PaleMoon, but looks like there's no Violentmonkey or Tampermonkey for it ported yet, just Grease Monkey. Wonder if it would work with it.
Hunter Butler
Cool, didn't even realize Kraków's flag is virtually the same as Legnica's, though the shade of blue is a tiny bit different.
Jonathan Nelson
Thanks. The only good looking one I found was Sikkim, because it was an independent country before. But it's not used anymore sadly. deviantart.com/xumarov/gallery/?catpath=/&edit=0&q=India Those white ones with seals on them are official ones I think. The rest used by ethnic groups are actually more interesting.
There was also other guy who uploaded the official ones before, but I think his account has been deleted since.
Matthew Adams
we also have a banner which looks like scotland a bit, but I've never seen it used in any place IRL.
I don't know of many cities having two flags, unless some other part became a suburb of it but I think adding suburbs... would be too complicated even for this project? As I know, Moscow for example have that, but not much other cities
Are there some flags you couldn't find for Polish cities or regions?
Kielce flag still wasn't made into an .svg on Wikipedia (but is on crwflags). I originally found two claimed versions of it, which largely confused me back then. Konin flag which originally wasn't on Wikipedia, is now available as one tho. Back then I had to find it on some other site.
Wilamowice, the home of Vilamovian minority with unique language, I still couldn't find any flag of it, just coat of arms. Someone made this based on it. deviantart.com/xumarov/art/Vilamovians-300371710
This is also a flag of one city I was searching for once, in pic attached, but today I have no idea which one it was (something in Lesser Poland I think). All I could find was this pic, of people holding its flag they bought in village attached to it.
Greek and Israeli regions have no flags, just cities. In Israel's case, they sometimes have 2 or 3 different versions and lack of standardisation in it. When I did flags of Greek regions for a site called Livechan, I just used those of historical regions and made them share it.
One Russian region had no flag back then, wonder if it changed. RU-60. Two regions also merged, leaving RU-35 and RU-82 vacant. But RU-82 was reused for either Crimea or Sevastopol. statoids.com/uru.html This site documents it, but they don't have it in the code we used.
I wasn't sure if you were calling me a nigger or suggesting my wife cheats on me, I'm white and my wife doesn't cheat on me
Kayden Cruz
it means his a bitter incel
Matthew Price
>I'm white ok >my wife doesn't cheat on me surreeeeeeeeeeeeee keep telling yourself that >it means his a bitter incel >his time to work on your english paco gonna have to fill out the AB60 application eventually
Nolan Jones
>>I'm white >ok Would you like me to prove it?
Isaac Phillips
sure go ahead apparently you've got the time to waste
>adds his cross to the picture for no reason THAT's why I can't like you; pushing that bullshit.
Christopher Reyes
you represent everything he hates
Brayden Brooks
Just added it for flair, I'm not trying to convert you any time soon
Kevin Flores
Bullshit, there's no reason to add that otherwise. It's like when the evangelicals put their ten commandments on the lawn of their supreme court building. You know, John Lennon said a lot of stupid things, but he said one thing which make some sense, God is a concept by which we measure our pain.
Ayden Lewis
Why would I even try to convert you? You've expressed many times how much you dont care for religion there would be no point and if I was going to try to convert you a fucking cross on a piece of paper isn't much
Andrew Barnes
More like religious people should stop being religious. The world would be a much better place if everyone was an atheist. Religion, greatest opiate of the masses since sex.
John Perry
Thats an opinion, I'm not going to argue religion with you and I'm just going to agree we disagree
Zachary Myers
religion might as well be an opinion as well. There's absolutely zero credible scientific evidence to back it up, which is why you're not gonna argue it with me. You know that you cannot stand up to even the most elementary atheist arguments.
But keep doping yourself with religion, i bet you feel really holy right now lol
Sonoma I'm not going to argue religion with you because anything I say you're going to ignore I'm not going to argue religion with you because it will be fruitless and cause nothing but trouble
I don't hate you sonoma, in fact since I've been coming here I've tried my best to befriend you while also staying to my beliefs and you're making that really difficult
Colton Kelly
ill come down to Meh-hico and shit on you if you don't shut up pic related rhubarb watching this thread from the discord waiting for me to start posting
