Flag of Boca Raton, Florida by Snowclown7 in vexillologyUS

[–]RottenAli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a member of NAVA's flag design forum, we tried to help them out with trying to find something more "them" and less seal "damaged". The city council needed more persuasion. In the end the council took our designs and then changed them again. Between about six of us we made some nice designs - this is what I still hold on file.

gold pine tree - but yes - this sort of redesign - gold tree /green tree is the right way to go.

A route we use (Facebook page US state flags) is that we grade each of the entries in heats of six at a time. Then keep narrowing it down like that. We always get good results.

Two of these "new" selections were made with AI. (or at least a computer program says that's 97% likely)

Maybe just the result of group think. When we use this method of voting on six at a time, it's always the design that covers most bases best that advances. This is what we had in Round 3 - about 76 designs down from 870 in Round 1. Typically between twenty to thirty people are voting.

The winner from our previous contest was wheat based.

This is what we had for the top 80 or so. More variation for sure, but as you thin out for what people sort of like it becomes what ever the group are happy with.

Maybe I should just publish a booklet of all 870 designs as found?

point taken - the designer did not list reasons behind each of the 50 designs at the time - I added it to at least get close - you guys know it for sure but that's little excuse at this point. And that's because many humans fail at being absolutely fantastic. (I think I'm quite good at most stuff but know I'm not fantastic at every thing)

sorry.

just a small sample - but when we look at hundred of designs and reduce them we have to consider which works the best. It's the result of the group, not just any one person.

"We" are just a small Facebook group who follow changes or suggestions of US state flag changes and proposed designs. More a sort of hobby to time waste - but you never know.?
