Hallo,

About flags: What about some nations using coat of arms instead flag, or some nations at least wish to use it? On MAC, few years ago, was coat of arms in czech desktop, wich in fact for czech's made this system lilttle more atractive, then Windows with flag. There was easilly 2:1 flag-like red field with silver lion on it (cz).
border: Yes, it could be fine, or maybe using some kond of shadowing (2px)?

Hello,

I was wondering if there's any style or restrictions for flag-icons
that has to be met. Do they all have to have the same size/aspect
ratio? At least roughly the same ratio seems to be visually more
attractive, considering that the union jack, for example is 1:2 and
Switzerland can be 1:1.

Also, would it be nice to have a 1-pixel, bevel-like frame around all
flags? depending on the flag and background colour, having a border
seems to be a good idea.

Regards,
Humdinger
