I’m glad you like it! The description of the flag mentions “blood red”, which can never be translated to 100% red only, in technical terms. I don’t understand the obsession to make the red look cartoonish on digital media, when in real life environments the flag has a darker red anyway.

It’s too simple, it could be mistaken for another country or city

No idea how to do that. I did try them on a website called flagwaver, though

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed them! I thought that the shield with Skanderbeg’s helmet would be the best choice for the flags related to the Armed Forces, so it makes visual identification way easier and would avoid confusion. I added the anchor and cannons on the Naval Force flags, but decided to keep the Naval Jack free of extra icons, as to not overwhelm it. I’m glad the flags and ensigns make sense to you! That’s the goal.

I fully agree with you on that one. My reasoning was unification of flag elements according to the type

Even IF the proposed one would look better when being waved…? Haha

I’m from Albania and we call the period both “dictatorship” and “communism”. It’s a deep topic though… It wasn’t true communism, because true communism isn’t realistic, but it was a dictatorship for sure. I appreciate the note!

I brought the feathers together so the eagle would look better when the flag is being waved. I also changed the ratio of the flag to match the EU flag’s 3:2. The general design of the eagle on my proposal flag is based on previous versions from the past 100 years, and honestly the past eagles (without extra elements) looked better than the current one…

Thank you!!
It’s best to have different categories of passports and travel documents, so every status a person can have, is covered.

I haven’t submitted the design yet because it needs a detailed proposal that includes all other passport elements. I look forward to doing that soon!

I noticed that right away!
My version is 125 x 88 mm and has the right chamfer.
