How about saying that your rock band is creating the universe? :D

Anyway; I think the ZBB does shy away from criticism, and then there comes a point where somebody is fed up with the niceness, and goes in the complete opposite direction. And neither will really get us any further.
Well, if this is a problem maybe we should find a solution?

But dragging down someones art is practically pointless. Sorry, but that's the entire point of art. Art has rules and though they change over time, you'll find they are very much consistent, so follow them. One should not neglect learning what a complementary color or analogous color is anymore tha...

@Dewrad: Come on, you're being a bit harsh on the man. Yes, the guide you've posted is a very good one, and yes, some flags can be very ugly indeed; but people can make ugly flags if they want to. It's certainly good to offer advice on how to improve a flag according the the opinions of yourself an...

Every country needs quirks, even concontries, what's the harm in putting in a few imperfections. Especially if they're artistic choices? If someone would rather be logical and design "better" flags well now they have the guide you posted to help them out.... The point isn't that following the guide...

This is required reading for all those creating their own flags. Seriously, guys: some of these are just plain hideous. Yet, it seems to be a very naturalistic thing to have a "bad" flag. It's "naturalistic" to own slaves, but that doesn't make it a good idea. My point is, sure, it might be good to...

Never thought there was anything particularly "bad" about my flag... it's distinguishable, symbolic, and simple, all basic shapes (triangles, rectangles, a circle and a simple star). I think your flag is nice and also, going by the article, it's a "good" flag. The Isharian flag might have problems ...

Here's a basic Isharian flag from the classic period: http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/1457/flagmc.png The bottom triangle shows that whoever flies this flag is loyal to the guiding council of the central province.

Isharian is apparently Fijian, Malay or at times Polish :D

Flu travelled from the first domesticated horses to humans and somewhere along the way has also managed to infect birds, pigs and who knows what else.

Viruses are very good at adapting.
