Wow. It's fascinating how certain things just click with people in a way that makes that want to hold on to a subject for the rest of their lives.. Do you have a least favourite? I'm curious if there's a country that just sucks at flag-creation.
My favorite flag in the world is the flag of the Faroe Islands I think its just gorgeous, elegant, and vibrant. Honestly, the US is pretty bad when it comes to state/city flags. Either you get something beautiful like Maryland
or Tennessee Or its the opposite and you get a design abomination like West Virginia Or Montana
It is also argued that any flag with text on it is bad, so some of the Islamic groups and former soviet countries had text on the flag which is considered bad flag design.
I just want to say thank you for teaching me about an area of design I knew nothing about. This was really interesting! Cheers!
No problem! I could talk about this stuff all day!
I learned a lot from the reddit /r/vexillology forum. So much information in the side bar. Also, google and wiki work really well for just looking up history of flags.
Okay so you inspired me to start a vexillology blog :D http://vexillogic.blogspot.com/
I actually like their flag for how unique it is. Like Switzerland and their square flag.
