As you can see the flagtism was already alive and PK was already well known

yes, that's the one!
I was in a different thread when someone posted a link to it.

Also, the oldest post of PK which I could find in an archive, there are probably older unarchived ones
archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/42592874/#q42600981
Note the fact that flag collecting was already a thing in march of 2015

ok lads, austria has nine states;
Burgenland
Carinthia (Karnten)
Lower Austria (Niederösterreich)
Salzburg
Styria (Steiermark)
Tyrol (Tirol)
Upper Austria (Oberösterreich)
Vienna (Wien)
Vorarlberg

who is working on this? ill grab burgenland and carinthia for now

>tfw you remembered the post correctly
I might actually have autism

i love to see PK derail an entire thread with one rare flag shitpost

looks like most of the """flags""" are coat of arms :^( so use 11x11

if i make a bunch of flags, where do i submit them and how?

Github, create new issue

do you know the steps to making flags?

okidoki ill give it a try :^)

claiming Oberösterreich for BRaunau :^)))

lol no
i would just make them in the right size in mspain and create an issue on github

>40 more prefectures to go for Japan
>already 370 flags
fug ;D:

W E W ok hol up,

get paint.net
rename flag to .png
open .png in paint.net
resize to 16x11 if its a flag
resize to 11x11 if its a coat of arms
open gloss in new layer
merge layers
save
:^)

the 16x11 glosses are in the extra-flags-for-Sup Forums-master folder

...

Should I contact the /r/vexillolligy mods because they arent using gloss on most non senpai flags and its fucking me up

should I fucking do it and try to spread this autism to reddit?

please dont
just call them incompetent losers and move on its not worth it

these are all in github, you mean adding municipality flags for each?

Ill just tell them their gloss is wrong and to use the correct one

I'd do it, we need a bunch of new users from somewhere

soon it'll just be us posting with regionals unless we grow

I gotta try this alongside FlagMaker.

yeee, im currently on
burgenland>neusiedl am see>X

i set it up in german, what is the gloss?

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

or is this too official?

right here mane

say "other sides such as Sup Forums"
maybe theyre scared of us >:^)

ya need the white gloss too?
cant post it because 4chin thinks it contains an embedded file

what would I replace with that?

praise

checkd :^) i have the glosses m9

give me one reason to not send the mods a message

should I also straight up include a link to the plugin, or are the flags legit copyrighted?

in your first issue

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

do it

wich one of these is supposed to be "Gloss"?

None, dont touch that

started with swaziland ages ago :^)

i dont get what the gloss is or how that layer is supposed to change anything

It adds the black border and shiny effect on the flag

OKAY BOYS LAST CHANCE AND A QUESTION
SHOULD I OR SHOULD I NOT ADD A DIRECT LINK AND GIVE THEM PERMISSION TO USE OUR FLAGS

DO IT ALREADY

save the gloss from click and drag the gloss onto the 11x11 coat of arms
open in new layer
merge

...

where is gloss?

Ive sent it lads

...

i uploaded it with

better example, here is more noticeable

...

do you have a 16x11 gloss?
i cant stretch it out mane :^(

there we go!
thanks

for 16x11 flags, use the 16x11 gloss in the extraflags master folder

>75 """flags""" done and not even halfway done
wew

:^)

:^)))

p r a i s e :^)

>tfw I learned bestiality is legal in Nevada
Makes sense :^)


To anybody making flags: please make sure they are ANTI-ALIASED. I will not add aliased flags.

We do have flags too
Everything is Poland.

but the municipalities/towns are all coat of arms, and thats what im working on

some of the ones i antialiased dont look like theyve been antialiased :^(

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!

and now?

ive done all first level Oberösterreich now. Is that enough or should there be more?

Ill respond, they want the original flags as well for their "HD" version of the sub
Ill just tell them: lol 16x11 only lad

16x11 or die m8 :^)

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/

363
114
the total of those and however many flags i did in the MA overhaul

is Heard and Mcdonald rare? :)

its impossible to get m9

>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.
