I know it was. I'm sorry. I guess I felt bad when I heard that, is all.

But a beginner's Photoshop isn't good at detail, I guess.

@GoldGonian My apologies too. Sometimes I can be too specific and not as socially couthe as I should be. I feel you on the software thing. I have an easier time hand-drawing and scanning than I do constructing images with my software.

Nope, you didn't miss it, just haven't gotten around to putting it together. For sure at the start of August.

All the images look amazing! Too bad I don't have any talent with such things.

May i ask what happened to these? 

http://i.imgur.com/WYQdDyD.jpg

I would like them to be in the voting for the flag cause that one was my favorite ^^

Flag Design #4 looks cool but is also quite complicate for a flag. I mean i couldnt draw that and a flag should be easy to make

 

Design #3 is quite good but why the square, why those colors? is there any meaning behind it? Cause there should be

Design #2 is...uhm...an axe? It looks kinda weird could someone clarify what it is supposed to be and why?

 

Design #1 is the opposite of #4 its oversimplified

That flag was not submitted for the contest. It was, it wouldn't qualify because of the glow effect.

If none of the flag designs suit you, then choose "None of the above."

the question i keep asking myself how those look in tiny format as you would use as icon for the website in the tab. i am not sure if you can really see all details of #4

#3 would be my favorite of all four but i am really interested if there is a deeper meaning behind it that i simply dont get or if its just made up for the looks like whats with the colors grey white blue? rock snow sky?

 

and why does #4 use tag rune instead of dah?

Hello, everyone.

About the flag, I had the image in my mind, the faces of a dragon and a human looking at each other.

This language is of course a dragon language, but because it is developed by the community, it deserves to have both dragon and human elements.


And because Paarthurnax is a teacher to the humans about the words of power, I believe he can/could teach them some basic phrases or the language in general.
So (the in-game) people might translate and learn the dragon language through time.

The dragon on the flag can be Paarthurnax because he is the (most important)one who gave the dragon porwer (and started teaching the dragon language) to humans.

The flag is a symbol of what we are doing here.
It should be recognisable by people in general and not only by the community in my opinion.
That is an other reason that there could or should be both a dragon and a human on the flag.

Problem being its very hard to draw in a fashion that is 

a) Looking good

b) recognisable in a 32x32 Pixel variant - actually the dragon alone has huge problems there

c) it should be easy to reproduce meaning if a child can draw it its a decent flag

Maybe it should be good to have just the ''D'' word for the 32x32 , and have the flag isolated and full designed.

For example in my country's flag(Greece), it has a cross on the top left and 9 blue-whit stripes(5blue,4white) from top to bottom.

When they want to show it somewhere in a miniature or a little display, they put just the blue-white cross and not the whole drawing.

It is just my opinion,to have a decent full flag and the main symbol on the 32x32 pixel design.
 

I have sent my ''designs'' to Paarthurnax, but I will try to upload them here( I haven't found the way yet)

@Maakrindah Thank you.
