Jakenug No, sadly, bethesda says that we are allowed to use and build the language but they only do that because we aren't making money. We could still have posters and how-to make a shirt with the design and stuff, just not for sale. |

I really felt like this was the wrong flag for the job. It has a catchy design, but to me, it is just a cool drawing and not a flag. I was prepared to hang a Dovahzul flag outside my house, but if I use this design, people will think it's a demon instead of a Dragon and make undue assumptions. I really should have submitted the one I liked. I figured that since Paarthurnax said it wasn't what we were looking for, that the design wouldn't make it to the voting, but honestly I have no idea how the #1 and #2 flags made it to the finals. #3 was the only one that actually 'looks' like a flag, and #2 & #4 did not even follow the guidelines of the assignment. I am incredibly disappointed in this community and I have a difficult time taking this as seriously as I once did. While I mean no direct offense to the creators of the designs, I feel let down by the outcome of the vote. Flags are heavily symbolic, and to me the flag that won was simply a cool design, and did not convey the symbolism that a flag should. For instance, if this were a real flag, the circle surrounding the dragon head sillouette would have a specific meaning. If it were a runestone outline around the dragon head, it would have symbolism. This is just my opinion. I have no intention of hurting feelings. This is just a matter of the flashy overcoming that which has content. Again, this is just my opinion, and I mean no offense or insult. |
