Should flags prioritise uniqueness or simplicity?

Modern flag design tends to favor simplicity, but do you think uniqueness should take precedence instead? Would a more complex yet distinctive flag be better than a simple but generic one? I’d love to hear your thoughts!

What flag would Illinoians like?

As a non-Illinoian, it makes me curious of the opinions of Illinoians. With this ongoing vote I believe it is necessary to ensure that a fellow state can be represented by something beautiful and dear. So I ask you Illinoians, what flag would you like to represent your state?

Spotted in Society Hill Philadelphia.

Saw this on a walk yesterday in Philadelphia. This court typically has a lot of interesting flags. Couldn’t identify this one.

Nevada Flag I made in High School (NSFW?)

Was going through some old photos of mine when I came across an obscure creation of mine back when I was in high school. For reference it’s been 7 years since I last looked at this. Not sure if this counts as NSFW but wouldn’t be surprised if this gets taken down.

Anyway:

  • Mushroom cloud for the atom bomb test
  • State flower
  • Dice for gambling and 13 colonies
  • Silver star for the mining of the metal in the state
  • Phrase “Battle Born” for being created during the Civil War
  • Silhouette represents the other well known entertainment of the state’s largest city who is also holding a sword. Because why not.

Like it, don’t like it, up to you.

ID flag on the Georgetown Car Barn?

I need help identifying this vertical bicolour. Blue at the hoist and white at the fly. some kind of american looking seal in the middle.

the building on which it flew is in the District of Columbia, US, and is historically registered apparently.

it’s vaguely reminiscent of the NJ-NY port authority flag, but this 1 has only a single seal…

thank you for any help or leads in identifying
