Subject
forum_emoticons.html	[quote=antp,82827] In addition to the Libya update (and maybe others that I did not notice...) these were added: BL - Saint Barthélemy GG - Guernsey IM - Isle of Man JE - Jersey ND - United Kingdom / Northern Ireland SS - South Sudan XK - Kosovo If someone has time to design these in the same style as the others, I can bring back the old set, even if I like the fact that the new ones respect the ratios of the flags. Some others should still be added : Sint Maarteen (and possibly Saint Martin) & Curaçao I didn't add these because Sint Marteen uses SX as code, which I already used for Scotland, so it is annoying :D[/quote]

Thanks! I'll put the old flags back then, I hope that now everyone will be mostly happy again :lol:

Thanks antp! Now the Japanese flag looks normal again with it's slight outline, instead of just a red dot on a white background.

I think so too. We probably should limit our country selection to present souvereign states and past ones with a relevant, distinct or unique automotive sector.

Maybe it would be easier not to add too many then :grin:

Not useful, because these flags, are regional flags, just like the Catalan flag, after if you want to add them all. :grin:

By cons you can add the Kanak flag for New Caledonia because even if not recognized, it is used officially. :wink:

Two others that I added and forgot to mention:
RE (Réunion) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_R%C3%A9union not the French one, the other, though that unofficial, seems used
GF (French Guiana), it was in the other list I had, I don't know if it is needed but why not...

Quote From: dsl

2 suggestions, although both historical rather than current:
- Rhodesia
- Macau
For Rhodesia we use Zimbabwe, which is historically wrong, but works as a system so it's not a big concern. Macau is a gap we haven't got a handle on. Theoretically we could use Portugal, but that doesn't sit well with what we find there which is very similar to HK.

Macau was already in the list ("Macao SAR")

This account is still working, thanks for contacting directly. I just now did the missing flags in traditional style, I hope I haven't forgotten any country (some of them I haven't even heard of).

Tönz was just here https://www.imcdb.org/vehicle.php?id=1703493
but I don't know if the e-mail connected to his forum account still works.

I said respect ratio, not overall size one compared to the other.
As long as either width or height is fixed but not the other one, the ratio is respected :grin:

Indeed usually when flags are together a standard size is used.
We just need someone with a little time and basic graphic skills to have missing ones :tongue:

(otherwise maybe I'll do it if I have some spare time this week...)
