Oo, very fearsome. How about some white outlines to make the crosses stand out more? Benkarnell 18:06, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

Bravo. Those rules of tincture do make a difference, n'est pas? Zahir 16:28, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Fully agreed. It's lovely, so let's have it. Comments regarding Georgia below... —IJzeren Jan ^Uszkiełtu? 17:01, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

Georgian flag

(copied from User talk:BoArthur):

Hi Dan! Why did you just upload a snorist Georgian flag first and subsequently delete it? I had a quick peek at it and liked the result, but now I see it's gone. :(

FWIW, I had an idea for Georgia. To use the bordeaux flag with a black-'n'-white canton as Georgia's pre-1993 flag (including the snorist era). But that should by no means make your flag impossible. It could substitute my idea, or eventually be used as a royal flag or something. Cheers, —IJzeren Jan ^Uszkiełtu? 18:11, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

I didn't like the way Paint saved it as a JPG--I was going to bring it back as a PNG, resize it, etc. And I like what you suggest too...I'll put up some suggestions. BoArthur 22:05, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

I'd love to see what your idea is--from the article, the SNOR movement only lasted from 1945 to 1954, and then it was subverted by a new King, which to me would indicate a change of flags, as well. What do you think?

Well, not exactly. I just reread the whole article about Georgia and found myself surprised that I couldn't remember almost anything of it, even though I depropped it myself! I'm getting old... Anyway, the snorist dictatorship lasted from 1945 to 1954, like the article states, but the regime of King Beria wasn't any better, really. Keep in mind, King Beria is nobody less than *here*'s Lavrentij P. Beria. When he was finally deposed in 1993, he was already 94 years old. He was perhaps not the most faithful follower of Moscow, but still kept his country firmly within the realm of snorist countries. Russia didn't particularly like him, but tolerated him anyway.

As for the flag, I'd suggest this one to be his personal, royal flag. At some point in the late 1950s or early 1960s, he may have substituted the old state flag with his own personal flag. Would somehow fit nicely within the whole idea, wouldn't it? —IJzeren Jan ^Uszkiełtu? 17:01, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

I like the plan... BoArthur 19:03, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

I can't find the "bordeaux flag" that you're thinking of. Can you direct me to an instance of it, Jan? BoArthur 18:34, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
