The EU isn't a country either, and I don't like that the EU flag is labeled "Europe" here.
Europe is more than the EU, or did I misunderstand something?

Norwegians and Swiss... even more Eurosceptical than Britain, amazing.

Only a matter of time before you are assimilated and become one with the rest of the European Union though.

It wasn't all complaints.

There were compliments, testing of flags, a html page made that contained almost all the flags, exploitation of the country field, and demands that some of the current flags be removed. And statements about the non-working of some (well, exactly 5) of the flags.
I've figured out how to fix 4 of them, and have messaged Markos telling how to fix them.

I was using sarcasm. Someone implied Texas wasn't elegible because it was no longer a country. Then I sarcastically agreed that only countrys can have flags at Poly.

It annoyed me when people didn't read into sarcasm.

I have since conditioned myself to use the smilie to accentuate sarcasm (unless it is dry wit, in which case accentuation rather ruins the whole effect).

hi ,

okay


, say on the site of the UN there is a list of all the official nations on earth , .... with their flags , ....

some are not because they dont exist in an official way , ...

maybe Mark can use that list as a reference , ....

but what to do with a nation like "sealand" , ... they have their own passports , their own diplomatic relations , etc , but they are not (yet) in the
UN , .....

and what to do with the many governments that are in excile , .... like South Vietnam , .....

have a nice day

Gee, I seem to be a bit late posting, but what the heck!

Great feature, Mark

BTW, Canada's flag has a 2:1 ratio. Yeah, we're different form most of the world!

And as to USSR flag, if you insist on not including it, do you think we might be able to have at least a communist flag? At least for those of us lacking in custom-avatarabilty ?

I don't know why England lets them exist

It's a tax evasion paradise (although I'm not sure that was the purpose... but it certainly IS as they are not paying British taxes)
