    Is this the flag I’m supposed to replace with Visibly Artistic, Newly Doodled Additions, Laid Intrusively Supra Merdiculae*? Or will be there a bigger one? NO KINGS, NO KINGDOMS, NO FLAGS! DEFACE THE FLAGS IN THE CANVAS! SAY «NO» TO THE DIGITAL VERSION OF IMPERIALISM!!!11one11eleven

    I’m 25% joking, 75% serious with the above. I do think people should gang up against the largest country flag they find in the Canvas, whichever it is, and deface it. Not just “work around”, as if you were a vassal and your suzerain “graciously” accepts your doodle over it; no, fuck those country flags, if we gang up we’ll force people to either shrink or remove them. Because yes they do tend to take A LOT of space.

    On another matter, since Canvas is in two weeks, I feel like I should stop being a lazy arse and prepare my template; I’m thinking of doing something silly, like a (tidied, pixellated, and waaaaay smaller) version of this:

    The pic above is 320 x 200, but I think 80x50 would still look good while not wasting too much canvas space.

    *sorry for the unnecessary Latin. It’s just “over shit” wouldn’t fit the acronym.

      Yep, never were a friend of those flags. Put up pop icons or whatever, but please no stupid flags.

      I think it would be nicer if they could make up something to celebrate their culture - too often flags can take on a blunt political significance, and lead to side-taking divisive bullshit. “This country good, this country bad” sort of stuff. Focusing on cultural aspects - landmarks, food, etc. - could be a way to foster cultural exchange rather than nationalistic competition

    Well well well, wasn’t your Enterprise D also quite the offender last time? But don’t worry, we won’t plant our blanket on all available benches… this time.
