Click here if the image does not work I personally quite like it and think it is quite smart, but I think a green olive branch or something around the N would be nice.

I like the olive leaves, but no crowns or other royal insignia, the island is a socialistic republic!

Â I agree with kegetys as a lot of stuff is Czech, although has anyone noticed that the resistance camo resembles swiss camo? Â This could suggest the island being close to switzerland. Â Not saying switzerland owned it or anything but maybe a flag modeled or designed copying czech or swiss flag? Â That would be interesting, i mean just look at Guernsy! Â thats a straight English copy. Check out these cool flags i made. Â I like em all i wonder if you will... Oh well i took all your ideas into account anyway <span id='postcolor'> Switzerland is land-locked! There are no Swiss islands! Wait till I get up my design, Jamesia is hosting it and it should be up tommorow. It has got to be simple. As the island is fictional the location isn't ver important. North eastern Europe, the Baltic somewhere.

I do like the idea of having some kind of logo in the white middle section. That pine tree was actually very suitable, giving a sort of 'salt of the earth, no frills, simple way of life' impression which suits Nogova very much. I would like to see something similar for the final design. Â <span id='postcolor'> There are Flags with letters on them, or have been. I agree I like the tree most, but it is taken.

They are ok, but the British flag wont do, Nogova was a Soviet possession, not a British one, they certainly wouldn't have a British standard on the flag. It also wouldn't be used with that design. But good thoughts, keep them coming!

The Norfolk Island flag appeals to me because of the simple symbol and the green and white are the colours on the Nogovan Police jeep. This would be a great flag if it wasn't already taken!

I have had this thought before, definately a good idea.
