If we are going for other flags like Australia: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/i3gJhN4.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Sgt-NiallR;43076000]Everyone saying that Wales needs more representation needs to recognise that the diagonal red stripes are the Welsh part. It has exactly as much representation as England and Scotland. [/QUOTE] Pretty sure those are Ireland. like so: [img]http://i.imgur.com/pnMpbfV.png[/img] [editline]5th December 2013[/editline] also australia should change to this: [img]http://www.oocities.org/wix99/images/theflag.gif[/img]
Where is the yellow suddenly coming from?

[QUOTE=Revanold;43077248]Where is the yellow suddenly coming from? Makes them look German[/QUOTE] Well seeing as the the Royal Family today comes from the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, it kinda makes sense.
I wonder if it will actually change or will we just leave it as it for ease.

They would make the most sense both in symbolism and in design.
Why not have an image St George fighting the Dragon? We'd instantly be the most badass country, and it represents English superiority perfectly.

[QUOTE=mchapra;43076353]All of these flags except the white/green one are obviously made by people who have no clue what vexillology is. Seriously if anyone prints anything but that one it will cost a shit-load. Even the black one would be expensive as hell because of all that black.[/QUOTE] That's not any more black than is on the German or Belgian flag. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/e1qzFsz.png[/IMG]

Sensationalism, Scotland will never go independent. Too close culturally, economically and the UK would be shit without all the big mountains and forests and stuff.
[QUOTE=Revanold;43081156]Pointing out the obvious but Germany isn't part of the UK so it shouldn't be on the flag[/QUOTE] Well no, I was just pointing out the royal family was basically German, it was a joke. [editline]5th December 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=dvc;43081402]take a page from us, brits [img]http://puu.sh/5DbUB.png[/img][/QUOTE] Being from Scottish and English family's saying Brits is counting the whole British isles which includes Scotland, so putting that on a flag and saying Brits kinda makes this flag a moot point, say how did you guys get on when you had that big argument about your country's two flags in the 1860's?
why not make a flag shaped like a dragon?

Also why hasn't upped the debate wether it should be called The Union Jack or Union Flag?
