Hm. It is interesting, I guess. There are a lot of posters, though, that won't use this feature, because they are from another planet.

This is about the correct colour of finnish flag (I believe)...

Where is the European flag? I saw that you can select Europe from the list of countries, but when I did that there was no flag.

Europe isn't a country, so delete it from the list. Or if you want to keep it you should at least make the flag available.

Markos,

Where did you get all the flags?

I like it for now, any way in the future that we will be able to turn off flags if we don't like it. I didn't see that as an option in the Control Panel.


To everyone,

I will take bets on how long before people start simply picking a flag to have it look cool or something. I say one day tops.

I love this feature

It doesn't seem to bother page loading times

-
although one can only wonder how long before OTers all have Finland flags or flags not of their countires in any way

Europe is an alliance- the EU, paul
