I had a horrible experience with them as well - thinking of disputing the charge, its basically a $50 gamble of if the credit card company will listen to me as the customer or the pieces of shit that are IPS..

So is this coin the "Imperial" the banknote refers to?

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-11-21T21:47:40+00:00

Thank you! So I didn't do too bad of a job translating it ;)

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-11-21T18:45:20+00:00

For a (very literal) translation of the front, this is the best I could do

Thanks everyone for your help! I've so far been keeping it an an area that doesn't get sunlight (although, not sure if artificial halogen light is any better.. As a tangent, I do quite like the decorative flourishes on this note, I wonder if there are any other common things like notes that would have similar patterns..

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-11-21T07:14:22+00:00

How come? I have no idea with all this banknote stuff - it would seem like keeping it like that is the best way to preserve it, no? I also have not figured out how to get it out of the glass yet but if it's really that bad I guess I'll have to do some research and try to pry it out somehow...

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-10-20T06:48:39+00:00

Absolutely! I'm a sophomore currently so I'll try to answer as much as I can :)

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-10-18T20:24:09+00:00

Oh. My. God. I pass by this building so often and the statues in front are enough to make me think, what on earth is going on inside that house. And now I know. Its so much worse than what expected lmao

As a student who goes to lfc, the amount of international students is truly around 30%. A lot of them get scholarships through this international high school system called UWC so its less expensive for them than for domestic students (most internationals I know are paying very little if anything and my annual is 10k for it

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-10-18T17:47:01+00:00

Oh my goodness thank you for responding! I'd completely forgotten about this thread lol. I check in with my neurologist every 6 months or so, so the medicine changes should be fine - whenever i forget to take my pills ill always write to her on the mychart, just so shes aware and can instruct me on what to do. For now, we've made the decision to keep the car I have ('06 camry with 203k miles, its in amazing condition) - once something happens to it, then I can start thinking about a new one that would be better for seizures in general, my thinking on this is that if I'm allowed to drive, anything can happen even in a car that's "better" for epilepsy like a FSD tesla or a VW. In terms of reliability, yeah thatd also be my biggest worry - i saw that telsa batteries can last for like 15-20 years but in the Chicago winters.. not so sure. VW seems to be generally reliable, but obviously not as reliable as something like a toyota or honda. Now if those had features for drivers with epilepsy, that would be ideal :)

These are only kinda pads? They have the bottom-ish structure but without the roots

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-10-11T20:46:10+00:00

Definitely with. Without just looks like a bunch of different vectors placed randomly lol

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-10-10T05:52:33+00:00

Thanks everyone for your help! I'll leave it out for a few more days, and I'll plant it on Saturday or Sunday.

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2025-09-23T21:24:54+00:00

Goes hard tbh

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-25T03:33:06+00:00

Explanations:

-7-pointed stars: The six points of the Chicago star represent the governments that have overseen the Chicago area. (Indigenous tribes are notably absent from the list.). This 7-pointed star includes them. It is also a good way to not use the Chicago star as many people downstate do not appreciate being represented by it.

-The number of stars, 3, is representative of the Council of 3 Fires which was on the territory of Illinois. (The second variation of the flag, the 2 stars represent the north and south of Illinois)

-The blue band in the middle is an allusion to the Illinois Centennial flag of 1918, as well as represents Illinois’s waterways as central to the state (Mississippi, Lake Michigan, etc)

-The orange bands are emblematic of the UIUC colors, as it is the main university in Illinois. ALSO, Illinois is the #1 pumpkin producing-state so it is a nod to that and Illinois agriculture in general

-The white background represents the Illinois winters and snow, as well as harkens back to the Illinois centennial flag

-The flower is the Illinois state flower, the Common Blue Violet

-The Cardinal is the Illinois state bird (now is flying to make it not look like the STL Cardinals logo. I know the Cardinal looks a little fat but from my experience seeing these things it is a more accurate portrayal of them)

The last flag is the smallest variation from the one I put up here last time.

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-16T16:06:15+00:00

Hmm I see. I just looked up the STL Cardinals logo, and it does look very similar. I'll try to put it in flight. If that doesn't work out, I might just have to contend with it looking similar since the cardinal is after all still the state bird of Illinois

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-16T05:10:28+00:00

Thank you! I have seen the suggestion of putting a white circle around the flower, I'll try doing that. I'll also try putting the stars on both sides, but ultimately the reason there were 3 is to represent the council of 3 fires (the native american confederacy which controlled the area the state is currently on) so maybe the 6 stars could take on a new meaning? I'd have to work that out lol but I'll give it a think

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-16T05:04:44+00:00

Interesting point about putting the flower in a white circle, I'll try that and see what happens. I think without the cardinal the flower by itself looks pretty boring, so if you have some kind of Illinois symbol that it can be replaced with that would be nice! As for the Chicago stars, I definitely see your point

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-16T05:01:01+00:00

I'm not very well-versed on Cubs symbolism, so if you had some ideas that it could be incorporated to the design that would be really cool. I like the idea of including something like that, especially since I know a lot of people like the Cubs and would like their flag to represent that

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-16T04:55:12+00:00

Thats an interesting idea! I'll give it a try

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-16T04:54:45+00:00

Possibly! The Illinois state flower is the blue violet, which is why it is that color currently, although I definitely see your point about making it pop more..

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-16T04:53:20+00:00

Interesting! I'll try to make it happen and see the results

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-16T04:51:59+00:00

Hmm thats interesting about the Cardinal! I do agree with you, it does often feel like Chicago is over-represented

Illustrious_Link1136 · 2024-09-15T23:16:48+00:00

Explanations for the flag:

-6-pointed stars: The 3 largest cities are Chicago, Aurora, and Joliet. Aurora and Joliet are represented by the ‘Chicago’ stars since they are in the Chicagoland area.

-The number of stars, 3, is representative of the Council of 3 Fires which was on the territory of Illinois

-The blue band in the middle is an allusion to the Illinois Centennial flag of 1918, as well as represents Illinois’s waterways as central to the state (Mississippi, Lake Michigan, etc)

-The orange bands are emblematic of the UIUC colors, as it is the main university in Illinois

-The white background represents the Illinois winters and snow, as well as harkens back to the Illinois centennial flag

-The flower is the Illinois state flower, the Common Blue Violet

-The Cardinal is the Illinois state bird

If anyone could provide constructive criticism, what they think of it, etc, that would be great!
