Will someone please fix my flag?
I'm from a proud country yet Apolyton refuses to display my country's flag properly. Please fix this problem. Thanks.

err thanks.

I looked it up in a website full of current national flags. It looked much better than that.

As it turns out I'm not from that country after all (used to be Wallis and Futuna). Now I'm from Albania.

I just discoved Bhutan. Really cool flag when viewed enlarged. Too bad you can't see the detailed version here. Check it out.

Ya gotta love Libya's flag for its simplicity. I'm tempted to use Libya. Afghanistan's flag ain't too shabby either.

Actually you're now from Bhutan. Assumably you got bored of being Albanian.

are you changing flags because of cultural interest,
or just to spam in the apolyton forum?

About bloody time!

I must say, that script that shows the flags as you select them is very nice! A good way to preview them. (and test them )

Or if you want to see the whole lot together, here are all the flags in alphabetical order. All working too.

I feel that language discriminates against vowels.

Fix you flag, huh. Well if it is hanging too limply, there is a little blue pill for that.

Meh, the gibberish you were posting looked like Gaelic (or whatever that Irish language is called) to me. Some other Celtic language then? Welsh?

I guess Welsh too. Could be Scottish Gaelic too, but I assume it looks more like Welsh.

Any language with that many constanents has to polish or somthing similar.


I can tell you, polish has only three letters: 'K', 'Z', and 'W'. Still havn't come across any others.

Alright boyos.
Its Welsh. I know a fair bit - due to my family on my mothers side being Welsh. I really only know set phrases, such as "How well do you speak Welsh?" "Where do you live?", "No smoking", "Where is the magistrates court" etc.

The grammar escapes me though, and my pronounciation has a lot to be desired.

RJ, if you can find an online translator then let me know.
