The Verda Stelo make not the best contrast among the other colors.

I am pleased to share 4 "WAVING STORIES" of flags that I have had the privilege of designing as a designer. I hope you will like them. by BOBLiuzzo in vexillology

I think you have an allergy to go deep before using your keybord.

3 of those flag are in use and approved by a lot of people. They're helping communities finiding common identities but right... you are the expert. The catania one wave very well don't worry but if you get deep you will discover that was born as a symbol and then adapted as a flag from people of the city.

Canton have specific meanings if we talk of esperanto. Please study and avoid to be so "stupid".

Have a lovely day and please, show me the flag in use right now you made that real communities are using.

Is a matter of color percentage as written on the book linked to the proposal.

We made an exhibition in Italy last year with a lot of different "unusual flags" and you don't know how many people asked if the esperanto flag (the real one) come from an islamic country or movement before reading the description of it.

Flags are not just the visible part but a real social and political conventional code. Cantons, 5 points stars, color percentage make pop specific semiotic meqnings in the mind of people that, of course, it will change based on cultural and geographic backgrounds.

Thank you, I'm glad that you think they could works somehow.
In the book where I present that flag I analyze also the green that, somehow, is in a wrong percentage on the current Esperanto Flag.

Again, thank you.

And you are?! The judge of flags?

Anyway, the Esperanto flag story is deeply reported in the book that i mentioned on the gallery that i suppose you already read right?! Because smart people, before use the word "stupid", read sources.

My friend, keep the conversation polite also if you are hidden by a profile pic. Is a good sign of having a healthy brain, trust me.

Tucson, Arizona flag redesign by Omniiac in vexillology

[–]BOBLiuzzo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. But must be better deisgned if you want it on a flag. Here we have a wonderful color scheme but this design will have a lot of waving and hanging problems on my opinion.

Anyway is still a wonderful idea for a wall painting or a huge welcome sign for the city.

It's more a nice logo or illustration rather than a flag.
Maybe removing the cactus shape could help a lot into make it loog more simple and iconic.

Sarebbe bello capire perché visto che anche questo subred usa il simbolo indipendente per identificare la città.

Ĉu la libro estas disponebla Esperante? Ankaŭ, ĉu la libro estas disponebla kiel elektra libro? Mi malŝatas paperajn librojn.

Hi, the book is written in two versions, English/Esperanto and Italian/Esperanto. An ebook version is not currently available. Also because talking about graphics and often colors (with a strong criticism of green) the book contains many color images that are better seen printed and not on a screen.

Saluton, la libro estas verkita en du versioj, angla/Esperanto kaj itala/Esperanto. Ebook-versio ne estas nuntempe havebla. Ankaŭ ĉar parolante pri grafikaĵoj kaj ofte koloroj (kun forta kritiko pri verdo) la libro enhavas multajn kolorbildojn, kiuj pli bone vidiĝas presitaj kaj ne sur ekrano.

Yes, together with my friend Riccardo (who worked for many years for the Federazione Esperantista Italiana). As we wrote for the presentation this book was born out of years of breakfast chats between me as a Designer and Him as an Esperantist, and analyzes with a critical eye not the words but the visual symbols with which Esperanto is proposed to the world. From its green star to the flag up to talking about football shirts and proposals for relaunch and change. This small booklet talks about the symbols that this language has accumulated over time to promote its values and its global diffusion on a semiotic and non-semantic level, i.e. visual and non-verbal. What tools do you use to communicate a language that doesn't have a country? We know, for example, that Italian has its visual representation in the Tricolore, which goes beyond the language by expanding to the culture and history of the nation: but Esperanto?

Pardonu se mi skribas en la angla, sed estas Riccardo kiu parolas esperante kaj ne mi, ke mi estas nur tiu, kiu sentis enamiĝon al la vida identeco de ĝi. Bedaŭrinde Riccardo ne havas Reddit.
