the NationStates Flag service

[1 Infinite Loop]

The NS flag service is resurected, it now operates out of the East Pacific off site forum, currently it is only me working there, however anyone with flag making skills is welcome to join,
I ask that only one request per person at a time, as I am the only person operating it for the time being, so please stop by should you need one,

*note, I will only make flags tha fit the legal definitions of NS flags, IE NO swasticas, or other stuff Violet and Max have ruled illegal, such as gratuitus nekidness, or whatnot.

for applicants for work, if you are good, I will put a specific forum for persons to directly request work from you.


for persons needing flags, here are my guidlines

0, please post your request in the Ep offsite forum, in the NS Flag service category, I dont want to see the tech forum here lagged down,
1, please be patient, as I am currently alone,
2, please specify flag size, 107x71 (stock) 300x200 (my standard size)
there might be a slight size modification if you choose 300x200 as I
have to modify the size to keep a decent resolution,
3, describe what you want, and I will do my best to make it, for example
text you want on it, style of script, colors, specific images on it,
and a link to something similar if you ar ehaving trouble descrbing it.
4, your flag when done, will be posted in teh EP forum, so be sure to check
it often as I usually work in sporatic hours and in bursts of several
flags at a time.
5, also, as an Unpaid, Freelance Artist, I reserve the right to refuse any flag job for any reason, Photoshoppers Perogative, (to date I have only refused two flags one was a potential TOS violation, the other for Moral reasons)

The Address,
http://invisionfree.com/forums/The_E...ific/index.php
Loop stats,
to date I have made, nearly 200 flags, *edit, recounted, make that 500+*
usual turnaround time at peak business, 24 hours
average resolution, 300x200 at 5k

Also, here is a link to TROUSRS version of the service.

my current flag

For those who don't know of Loop's skill, he made me a great flag from this description:

And that's what I got!

Seem's he's not too nifty with the spelling though...

(gratituous nudity, swastikas, guidelines )

lol that is what working on 3 hours of sleep gets me, especially when I post it at like 4 in the morning.

if anyone wants to see some of my work there is a gallery at the EP ofsite forum, and abyone who has a Loop Flag please Feel free to post it there I would post it from my archives but I cannot remember all of the persons who I made them for,

( Nekidness was intentional )

A flag with the Greek letters for Corsairio, as best as you can correlate them, in Symbol Font, Maize Yellow against a Slate Blue bakground on the upper half of a tricolor. The other colours should be white with a bust of socrates off center like Spain's coat of arms is on their flag, and the third should be Black with a red geometric sphere off center like the bust in the white part.

Slate Blue for Deep Coastal Oceans
White for Civilized Thought, Purity, and Progressive Public Policy.
Black for great Mount Kokulith, representing foundation.
Yellow letters for our ascendency from Athens,
Socrates for our new reformist culture
Red Sphere for our passionate pursuit of knowledge

Thanks Loop! :mrgreen:

Ill try to do your request however I hav eno way to translate Corsario into Greek Characters if you can provide me a link to it I would appreciate it.

your flag so far is in the EP forum, un the flag deliveries topic.

I should like to apply.
If you would like to see some examples of my work:























I know that not all of these are particuarly good (the only one that I deem exceptional is the one for Qaaolchoura), but I also do not spend much time on my own flags (maybe five minutes tops except for Qaaolchoura) , and I could do a much better job.

Give me something to attempt.

Edt:ed more than twice because I forgot to add .jpg on to the end.

What I meant was for you to type the string "CORSAIRIO" in whatever photoshop you use and put in in the slate blue tricolor. No translating.

Sorry for getting you lost in translation.

Side Note: I have created a paint-made image of what I think I want. Let's see how much better you can do.

What is wrong with Paint?

I only got Photoshop (Elements) a couple days ago, and before then I would always use Paint and nobody would notice.

The only thing that I have done in Photoshop so far is my entry for the Lancre Map Competition.

I threw this flag together for the Mods to use when they have to change a persons flag for offensive reasons,

awesome flag. perfect bust of socrates. all-visionary like.

Thanks. You'll be hearing from my friends.

three islamic crescent moons with stars of david as dots. A cross and reverse islamic cross to make the P (with another star of david as the period).

Should look like

C.C.C.P.

Crescent Moons should be red. Stars of David should be blue. Cross should be white.

SwallowTail Tip please. Dark Celadon/Forest Green Background.

Either you already had it and you are just telling us, or Loop is amazingly quick.

no, i just made a microsoft 2.0 paint version. until Loop makes something obviously cooler, it will stay.
