The Fried Head of A Down and Dusky Blonde | “When you discard arrogance, complexity, and a few other things that get in the way, sooner or later you will discover that simple, childlike, and mysterious secret known to those of the Uncarved Block: Life is Fun.” - The Tao of Pooh He said a lot of things in his book The Tao of Pooh.

The Liberties of Panther | Thanks :) Every now and then, I become restless with my current flag and have to begin tinkering away. It happens more frequently than I'd care to admit. Likely, this will not be it's final form, but I like the colors and general design. One of those times when a typo actually improves the message... *continues shining ARB's socks for no discernible reason and with no discernible effect besides staining them* Dorig, A Down and Dusky Blonde, Republic of Sernia, and Phillip isle | |
The Imperial Republic of Republic of Sernia | What do you use to make your flags? | |
The Liberties of Panther | Inkscape. It's a free and open source vector graphics program. My understanding is it's basically a free version of Adobe Illustrator. Another similar tool, and one that might be more intuitive, is GIMP, which is supposedly a free version of what Adobe Photoshop does. I would definitely recommend Inkscape, though you definitely need to watch a tutorial or two, as it's not as simple to figure out as when you open up whatever paint program comes with your computer. If you ever try it out and require some assistance, feel free to reach out. Alternatively, if you have a design in mind, I also just enjoy trying my hand at making flags for others.

Hebrewbible | Hello! | |
The Imperial Republic of Republic of Sernia | Thanks! Is there any way to save your post? I will probably want it in the future. | |
The Liberties of Panther | I disagree with what you say about bacon, but I will defend to the death your right to say it. Welcome. Hmm...not how you can save posts in a place like reddit. I usually rely on the search function for RMBs (found if you click on "Forum View" at the bottom of this page, or the "Board" icon at the top), and hope I can remember the relevant keywords combined with the author. I also keep a word doc for NS related things, copying and pasting quotes and info from the site that I think I might want to come back to at some point. Or, you can just ask again :P A Down and Dusky Blonde, Johanneslanden, Republic of Sernia, and Phillip isle | |

The Fried Head of A Down and Dusky Blonde | Back in the days before the advent of the never-ending RMB, I used to keep Word documents for the regions that I was in because the RMB's used to hold only 10 posts before the first one was pushed off into oblivion.

The Liberties of Panther | Oh...oh well now this is just awkward. Right. Well...of course, I was speaking of the mid century Irish artist Francis Bacon. I am especially fond of his works in triptychs, my favorite being "Three Studies for Figures at the Base of a Crucifixion," which depicts stylized versions of the three Greek goddesses of vengeance and blood debt - the Erinyes or Furies - purportedly for a Crucifixion scene that was never completed and likely never meant to be started in the first place: https://i.imgur.com/GwR7mMu.jpg A Down and Dusky Blonde and Phillip isle | |
Bartoninghamborough | I prefer a healthy breakfast A Down and Dusky Blonde and Phillip isle | |
Fordinhan | Bacon is very tasty though. A Down and Dusky Blonde and Phillip isle | |
Et pacific | 🎉🎉🎉🎉Happy Canadian thanksgiving!🎉🎉🎉🎉 A Down and Dusky Blonde, Johanneslanden, Rongorongo, Bartoninghamborough, and 1 otherPhillip isle | |
Pigs sheep and wolves | I consider dat to be very offensive. It would make me feel unsafe if I didn't weigh half a ton and carry a heavy club, a Taser and a loaded handgun as a law enforcement professional dere. Be careful what you say about bacon and odder such unhealty banned substances, which should be left in deir natural environment radder dan being forcibly removed and processed into so-called "breakfast meat" dere, as I sometimes has difficulty telling dose tools of my trade apart.

Johanneslanden | I confess, I had no idea Canadian Thanksgiving was a thing until yesterday. A Down and Dusky Blonde, Republic of Sernia, Et pacific, and Phillip isle | |

The Fried Head of A Down and Dusky Blonde | I'd rather have a lampshade. ;) Panther and Phillip isle | |
The Imperial Republic of Republic of Sernia | Haha! Just founded a region so I could send telegrams with those cool flag thingies. | |
Hebrewbible | and the swine although it has true hoofs, with the hoofs cleft through, it does not chew the cud: it is unclean for you. -Leviticus 11:7 Pigs sheep and wolves and A Down and Dusky Blonde | |
The Windy Kingdom of Noxious Air | I never did get the whole "don't eat pigs" thing. Is there something about the hoofs that make it inedible? Seems to me this is multicultural; I think it is not eaten by Jews, Muslims, and in some African peoples (if I can believe what I read in "Roots"). I'm guessing that the ancients got the correlation between eating pigs and developing trichinosis. Myself, I think it's rather tasty to consume the occasional pig.
