Flags of World of the Rising Sun
I've noticed you used a black arch on a few of that timeline's flags. Black on blue however makes it very hard to see especialy from a distance which is why its typicaly avoided *Here*. Could I suggest you either change the colour (the one on the EU flag could be yellow like the stars) or have a white fimibriation around (like on the Siam one) ?

 * By fimibriation I meant something like at the right. Incidently, If you'll allow this amateur vexillologist to give an advice or two, you might want to make your flags less busy. Most national flags use only 2 or at most 3 colours (unless there is a COA of course) so the Torii you used on many flags could be rendered using one of the other colour (Norway's ones could be blue for example). Also usualy you might want to stick to defacing them with only 1 symbol. Your flag for communist France for example could do with just the hammer & sickle (Incidently, I'm curious as to why you added Petain's emblem considering his political leaning) Marcpasquin 23:24, July 28, 2011 (UTC)




 * About the french communist flag, while the hammer & sycle and the star might be 2 items, they are still related and of the same colour to booth. This is similar to flags from *here* like tunisia. The Francisque on the other hand isn't flat, red or even related, it just unbalance the design. If you want to symbolise that they are both communistic and nationalistic, the fact that the communist symbols are put on the previous national flag (instead of a plain red one) should be indication enough. If you insist on keeping the francisque, make it fit in better as part of the design, something for example like the following. Marcpasquin 02:12, July 31, 2011 (UTC)




 * You asked: "How can a Hammer-Sickle + Star alone is able to represent nationalism?"
 * Sorry if I explained myself badly, I meant that the fact that the hammer & sycle + the star was put on the already existing national flag would show that they were somehow nationalistic. This is like yugoslavia and some eastern european countries that replaced the previous COA or simply added a red star to show that they were still the same country, only communist. Compare that to post civil war russia which occupied the territory of the old russian empire but adopted a completely different flag.


 * About creating other flags, you might want to check out this small booklet:

Your Name
Out of curiousity, for those of us who can't read japanese, how would you transliterate your screen name ? --Marcpasquin 23:36, July 31, 2011 (UTC)

The Picture
You know the picture you have with Luna and Earth side by side? Would you be able to change it as the moon doesn't really look appealing. The picture you have on the Luna page could be used instead as that would look more earth like. I hope you take my suggestion into consideration. Ta!! :) All the best with your adopted timeline. Imperium Guy 14:01, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

Now, that looked sweet. Ta!! :) Imperium Guy 14:42, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

Well, there is this picture: but I still prefer the terraformed moon picture to this. This one is still there though. :)



Imperium Guy 14:57, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

I think the terraformed moon picture rather then this would be better for the moon portal picture. Have this as a



back up picture. Also, for the Earth and Luna side to side picture, I've got an earth picture which I think might more suit it. The final decision is yours but I hope you like the picture. You can use the dark space to put the terraformed moon picture in ther or you could take the Earth and replace the other Earth on the Luna: Earth II

picture. :D Imperium Guy 15:35, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

No, I am pleased that you have decided to put the picture on the Earth article. Ta!! :D Imperium Guy 16:49, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, Ta means thank you. :D Imperium Guy 17:02, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

Your Welcome!! :D Imperium Guy 17:22, August 2, 2011 (UTC)

I need a favour. Would you be able to edit out most of the dark space left of this planet as I don't really know how to. If you could that would be great. :) Imperium Guy 12:01, August 3, 2011 (UTC)

Amazing. Thanks!! :D Imperium Guy 13:01, August 3, 2011 (UTC)

Flag question
The rule about using 3 colours or less is more about what usualy looks best, it is not a rule in the sense that it is *Forbidden* by some sort of authority. The reason for this rule is based on the notions of reproductability and recognisability.


 * reproductability: back when flags needed to be sowned, each colour area would need to be made separatly and then put together. Every extra colour would also incur extra cost.


 * recognisability: the more colours you have, the more then tend to "bleed" together from a distance when flapping so you probably want something simple.

As for the Coat of Arms, its better not to think of it when counting the colours. In older times, the COA was often put only on the State version of the national flag while the civil one was plainer. --Marcpasquin 23:05, August 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * One note on choosing colours for flags in historical settings, before modern artificial dyes, makers had to use a very limited range as it was usualy hard to get the exact shade right with natural ones (red might come out a bit burgundy) and some colours (blue, especialy purple) were also more expensive to make.


 * For this reason, flag designers *usualy*, followed the heraldic rule of separating colours with "metals" (white or yellow). But if for whatever reasons you need to use other colours, yes, try to choose ones that are highly contrasting. --Marcpasquin 16:06, August 5, 2011 (UTC)

RE:A question
Certainly. From what I saw on Google Moon using "elevation" I've found the approximate location of the mountain chain, which I've highlighted as best as I could. Enjoy. ChrisL123 16:42, August 7, 2011 (UTC)

I Need Help (Again!!)


I am trying to make a United Nations for another planet and I need help!! These are the United Nations flag on Earth. But I have run into a problem as I don't know how to implement the background design into the map I want. Would you be able to do it please. Ta! :D Imperium Guy 11:59, August 13, 2011 (UTC)

Oh well. I thought it might be. Do you know anybody who can?? Ta! :D Imperium Guy 12:26, August 13, 2011 (UTC)

I Like it!! It is amazing and just what I need. Thanks a lot!!! :D :D Imperium Guy 20:51, August 13, 2011 (UTC)
