People have been asking me to make flags for them lately, so I just decided, "Hey, I've got too much free time, why not just start a flag service?"
Though this might end up being the worst decision I've ever made, I will make flags for anyone who posts their desire on this thread. Be sure to tell me the specifications for your flag, or else you'll get some random flag that you probably won't like.

OK, Mr. Stantrous, I'll make you regret that idea If you would, please make a flag based on the American flag. In the blue field instead of stars place a human brain. In the bars area, make it a white field, instead of the red bars place the 'stars and squiggles' from the Iraqi flag (see my nation), small and repeated, in red, in their place (essentially, lines of red text of whatever the heck that is supposed to mean in Arabic). Note; if that is too much work or the result isn't going to be apparent (does 'legible' apply here?), just fore go the text idea, leaving in the bars. Thank you in advance

Maybe this? I'm not too sure about this. If you have any changes you want me to make (which you just might), be sure to make your request on this thread.

About the writing on the flag, if I remember right it says "There is no god but Allah, and Mohammed is His prophet" (the shahadah, I think it's called) in Saddam Hussein's handwriting.

Not really, we claim to have a "wall of separation" between church and state, yet every presidential swearing in ceremony speech has had some nod to the almighty (with the exception of Washington's 2nd) and in both cambers of our bicameral legislator, there is an invocation.

Nah, you're thinking of Saudi Arabia. The text on Iraq's flag (while also religious) is considerably shorter, as can be seen even by those who cannot read Arabic script. Iraq's flag has the other very common Islamic phrase "Allahu akbar" (god is great). And yeah, I'm equally surprised the text was religious, given the former regime's staunch secularism. And before anyone thinks I can read Arabic, I took the translation from the CIA World Factbook.

You should have just let us think you could read arabic. It would have added to your mythological mystique:)
