Cascadia

This is a flag design for the proposed nation of Cascadia. This flag was designed by Andrew Rogers, and you can read more about Cascadia and his flag designs at andrewrogers.net.

Cascadia is a proposed nation which would consist of the current British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon. There are also many proposed flags for this could-be nation. The most popular one can be found on the Wikipedian Casacadia article, but I think it looks way too much like the flag of Lesotho, and the black evergreen just does not make any sense at all.

This design by Andrew Rogers is simple and symbolic. The seven five-pointed stars represent the "seven original commonwealths that formed the kingdom". The green is the color of evergeens, which are very easy to find in "Cascadia". You can find more of Andrew Rogers' designs at this website.

Israel

I designed this flag for the nation of Israel not because I thought their flag was bad (it's an awesome flag!), but because there are some political issues concerning the flag of Israel, and many people want to remove the blue stripes on the flag. This design shows the Israel "Star of David" in a triangle on the hoist of a blue background, which is similar to one of their historical flags. Israel has many flags with blue background, and this was inspired by many of those designs.

Solar System

I designed this flag for the Solar System because of the current horrible one. The yellow represents the Sun, or Sol, which is basically the "heart" of the Solar System. The eight white lines represent the eight planets of the Solar System; Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. The white represents the stars, which can be seen from almost all parts of the Solar System. The white lines are thin because they resemble the orbits of the eight planets, which cannot be seen.

The current Solar System flag has a four-pointed star in the canton area of the flag, which represents the Sun. The background of the flag is blue, which makes the white and red four-pointed star stand out a lot. Surrounding the four-pointed star are nine white thick rings, which represent the orbits of Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, and we all know that Pluto is no longer a planet. The flag has not been redesigned for this change, and it is also an extremely busy flag. My design was meant to be simple and symbolic, and it is much better than the current Solar System flag.

Myanmar

This Myanmar flag design is obviously much better than their current ugly one. The current one has a red background, suggesting communism. The blue canton with the ugly corn in it looks ugly on the red background. This new design is much better than the currenty one, although red, yellow, and green suggest Africa, but Myanmar is in Asia.

Mars

The current flag of Mars has a vertical red-green-blue tricolor design, which makes it quite hard to distinguish between many other flags around the world...or universe. This flag design is almost like a lesson in astronomy, as the official specifications have the distance of the lines set to scale as they are in real life. The yellow represents the Sun, the red represents Mars, the black represents space itself, and the gold is used for the orbits so that the orbits can be seen on the yellow Sun.

United States of America with 51 stars

This is a proposed design for the flag of the United States if a 51st state is added to the Union, possibly Puerto Rico.

Not much different, is it?

Google

Yes, someone actually designed a flag for the Google search engine. This flag, discovered here, shows the main colors of Google; blue, red, yellow, and green, on a simple background of white, like the Google website. Cool, huh?

Washington

This Washington flag design was inspired by the current design, which has the state seal on a field of green. The seal is bad, and the picture of George Washington in it, but the green background looks great.

The green background represents evergreen trees, which can be found easily in the state of Washington. The state is also green. The emblem in the center represents an apple, the state fruit. The five-pointed star represents the United States, and the same pattern can be found on the inside of an apple when the fruit is cut horizontally. The red and yellow are the colors of an apple. The red looks good on the ywllow and the yellow looks good on the green. The emblem is placed a little to the left to avoid being worn off the flag by the wind. The same technique is used in the flags of Norway, Greenland, and Bangladesh.

Rhode Island

This Rhode Island flag design took a while to come up with, but I think it's pretty good. The anchor is a symbol of Rhode Island, and is currently on the official Rhode Island flag design. The purple background represents the state's state flower, the Rhode Island violet. The red stripe and the five-pointed star represent Rhode Island becoming the 13th state to enter the Union. The red stripe and the white star on the United States flag that represent Rhode Island appear in the same positions on this Rhode Island flag design.

The current Rhode Island flag is bad, in my opinion, but I don't think it is as horrible as, let's say, Nebraska's. The bad part is that the flag has a white background, but the main elements of the flag are yellow. Yellow on white is bad, as it's quite hard to see. Get it? Also, the state's motto appears on a blue banner under the main element, a ship's anchor. The motto is "HOPE". It's short, but it's still lettering, and that's not good on the flag unless the lettering is big and reads correctly on both sides of the flag, like "MOM", "YAY", "WOW", "MA'AM", and some other ones (trust me, those are not easy to come up with).

Pennsylvania

This Pennsylvania flag design took a very long time to design, and it went through some pretty ugly designs. Anyway, the two stars represent Pennsylvania becoming the 2nd state to enter the Union. The yellow square is is the exact proportions of the Declaration of Independence, which was signed in the state of Pennsylvania. The blue square is in the exact proportions of the Constitution, which was also signed in Pennsylvania. The green represents the main color of Pennsylvania. The blue represents the United States, and so do the five-pointed stars. The five-pointed stars also represent Philadelphia, which used to be the capital city of the United States. Blue and gold are also the state colors of Pennsylvania.

The current Pennsylvania flag is very ugly. Not only does it have black horses on a blue background, but it also has the very complicated Pennsylvania coat-of-arms. What a super-ugly flag! And to think they want to make it uglier!

North Dakota

North Dakota's current flag is just plain horrible! The shape of the eagle changes so much, that I have never seen the same North Dakota flag once, and I wonder how hard it is to sew! Ugh!!!

The chevron represents the North Dakota eagle and two people shaking hands, which represents the state's nickname "The Peace Garden State", and so does the chevron separating the yellow and blue, and the five-pointed star represents the United States.

New Hampshire

This New Hampshire flag design I came up with doesn't seem very comfortable to me. The red, white, and blue represent the United States. The blue triangle on the fly end resembles the shape of New Hampshire. The triangle being on the right represents New Hampshire being on the far east side of the United States (and I'm not counting Alaska, if you know what I mean). The one five-pointed star represents New Hampshire being the first state to ratify the Constitution of the United States. The five-pointed star also represents the United States. But my problem with this flag design is that the blue triangle could get worn off by the wind, and it seems a little bit boring, especially with the triangle being worn off.

But it's better than the current New Hampshire flag, which has the state seal of a field of blue. See the problem?

Massachusetts

The six-pointed star in this Massachusetts flag design represents Massachusetts becoming the 6th state. The red, white, and blue represent the United States. The green represents the state of Massachusetts.

The current Massachusetts flag has a plain white background with the state coat of arms and military crest in the center of the flag.

How boring.

Louisiana

Louisiana's current flag is crazy. The design is bad enough, but just recently there was a law that said that three drops of blood had to be added to the flag on the pelican's breast for the flag to be official. This design I came up with took me about four months to come up with.

The tricolour design represents three things: First, it represents the motto of Louisiana, "Union, Justice, and Confidence". The blue represents Union, the white represents Justice, and the red represents Confidence. Second, the tricolour represents France, which originally had the state of Louisiana before the United States bought it. And third, the red, white, and blue represents the United States. The five pointed star represents the United States, and the fleur-de-lis represents France. The green and yellow resepent Louisiana's marshes and swamps.

Kansas

I know that this design is better than the current Kansas flag design. The yellow and gold represent the sunflower, Kansas's state symbol. The five-pointed star represents the United States. The flag itself is in the shape of the outline of Kansas. The design also represents a wheat field at sunrise. And it's a flat landscape, like Kansas. The star is placed a little to the left to avoid being worn off of the flag.

The current Kansas flag has the state seal above the center of the flag, and the state military crest above the seal, and the word "KANSAS" in big yellow arial-type font letters below the seal. Here's how the seal looks. It's got thirty-four five-pointed stars arranged in a pattern on the top, and some horses pulling a few wagons on a landscape, away from a small church. There's also some horses in front plowing a field, with a guy with a gray shirt and white trousers. There's a ship on a river in the background behind the horses pulling the wagons across the prairie. There's some smoke coming out of the ship and the church. There's some buffalo in the background. I think the Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. There's quite a few waves in the water that the ship that has smoke coming out of it is in. Don't forget all that grass. I could go on describing it for a long time, and I haven't even started describing the military crest yet. The point is, it's complicated and it doesn't belong on a flag which is meant to be seen from far away. Kansas deserves a better flag than that.

Iowa

This Iowa flag design I designed is one of my favorites. The blue stripes represent the two rivers on both sides of the state. The red and blue and the five-pointed star represent the United States. The yellow represents corn, and Iowa has the most corn of any U.S. state.

The current Iowa flag is actually considered a banner, and banner were originally meant to be flown on two poles, one on each side. That seems a little weird, but maybe it's the right way to go, as the Iowa "banner" is pretty bad as a flag. The eagle holding a ribbon in its mouth with the state motto and the word "IOWA" on the bottom of the flag. What would it look like from the other side?

Understand? Anyway, is this design better than the current one?
