Im typing up a draft atm
Dear Moderators of r/vexilolligy, I am a representative of a general on Sup Forums's Sup Forums board.
I have come here to offer two things:
1. I noticed that you guys allow your users to use regional flags, and I would like you to post you towards the extra flags plugin made for the purpose of adding regional flags on Sup Forums. Both of these communities use flags made by F.A.M, and all of our regional flags are made along their standards
2. Talking about standards, A lot of regional flags do not have any gloss, that's why we want to supply you with both the gloss for a normal flag and a majority white flag. Both are recreated from F.A.M flags so they should be a 1:1 recreation
Dear regards, Extra flags representative
Brandon Torres
or is this too official?
Caleb Thomas
right here mane
Ryan White
say "other sides such as Sup Forums" maybe theyre scared of us >:^)

Zachary Hernandez
give me one reason to not send the mods a message
Anthony Gonzalez
should I also straight up include a link to the plugin, or are the flags legit copyrighted?
Josiah Hall

>the purpose of adding regional flags on other sites, such as Sup Forums.

Angel Hill

Levi Miller
Response from reddit mods: Awesome! Apoco can speak to the gloss, etc. We have two versions of flags here, the standard 11x16 flags that were largely either taken from a premade source or made by hand by apoco, and the larger format visible at hd.reddit.com/r/vexillology. All normal flags that weren't made by hand (with the "gloss") and all large format flags are just downsampled from a source image, which is less ideal at the small size. To clarify your offers am I correct that they are: A source to provide new regional flags from. An easy way to add gloss automatically to the non-glossed flags. If I've interpreted this right, I think some of this could definitely be useful. One question on the github linked, do you know if there is a corresponding file structure for source images for the flags themselves? A tiny sprite has some use, but without a base image it's a bit limited. I'll let Apoco provide additional context as he knows more of the history and design philosophy than I do!
Grayson Morgan
and now?
ive done all first level Oberösterreich now. Is that enough or should there be more?
Eli Morris
Ill respond, they want the original flags as well for their "HD" version of the sub Ill just tell them: lol 16x11 only lad
Jason Howard
16x11 or die m8 :^)
James Williams
My answer:
Thanks Bakonydraco for reaching out,
Both of your assumptions are indeed correct. There is sadly not a pre-made source structure. Most flags are sourced from Wikipedia or CRWFlags' Flags Of the World. This exchange was purely ment to share our (as in the posters in /flag/) resources, which are only in 16x11 format, use what you want and can but don't expect the sources to be added, like ever.
Regards, the lads at /flag/

Adrian Anderson
>I must get rid of Sup Forums's main feature
Not only that but you also need to namefag with ~3 extra flags in a separate general thread.
What keeps you from going to reddit at this point, you're clearly not ment to be here. I wonder why mods tolerate this shit.
