The new flag avatars....

Postby Lynn White » Fri 31 Mar 2006 6:11 pm

I was just wondering here... I can understand the Scottish and Welsh ones.. BUT how does John decide who gets a George cross and who gets the full Union Jack? I mean I am a George and JayUK is, well a UK lol...

And how far back do you have to go to be "originally" , as I see Sweet is Wales though she lives in London... my great grandfather was from Anglesey you know hehe!

I think we deserve to know!

Well, it's fairly arbitary.

Lynn's profile says Norfolk. Norfolk is in England, so Lynn gets George.

Jay's profile doesn't say where he is in the UK, so Jay gets Jack.

Sweet's profile is confusing, but she told me this morning that she liked the dragon. So she's got one. :)

Besides which, all you have to do is to go into your profile and choose a different flag if you'd prefer one. :roll:

I want the Welsh flag to show where I belong.

As I am a Freeman of Haverford West and have the right to drive my sheep through the town whenever I like and flaunt the parking restrictions.

Oh and I get £40 for privelage!

Weell, as I am married to a Trinidadian, I checked out the world flags available and good ole TnT isn't there...

I am tempted to change to Welsh cos I am "really" a Parry and Wales reflects my spiritual home...

but then I am esconced in Norfolk so should keep the George...

Yet again, I keep my towel and Hitchikers Guide handy in case I need to pop to a neighbouring system for a case of Romulan synthale..

So do you have a universe avatar lol....?

Lynn,

The Trinidad & Tobago flag is now in the World section. Odd, the ones which were missing from the default set!
