    Didn't see the association, but it's safe to say it's the flag that's the issue. :)

    Huánuco rivals Bolivar for lack of effort. At least the colors are nicer and it's on the diagonal.

    Makes me think of sandwiches.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101


    1. Rocha (URU) - I don't love this but it is well balanced and clear
    2. Ucayali (PER) - it's a tough round so this is doing well, looks like a native themed resort but with a weird shark :D
    3. Paraguarí (PAR) - the crest is so small you can't see it, lower score for failing with fundamental proportions
    4. Huánuco (PER) - boring and faded yellow (fine to paint a nursery, not great for a flag)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,684 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    1: Paraguarí - I can't make out what the center piece is, I'll have to Google it. But from what I can see now, i like the look of the flag

    2: Rocha- I like the silk flags even though the crest isn't too interesting

    3: Huánuco - yeah bit boring but boring is better than the thing below

    4: Ucayali - Another cult looking symbol here with the sun beam above the coloured pyramid. Like everyone needs to sail towards enlightenment. No thanks.
    Then the random Colgate stripes..

    So any reasons given for or against a flag are taken into account. Let's have a look.

    I'm going to have to go with this as the tie-brekaer. I can feel the disdain coming off the page.

    1: Paraguay - thats a nice flag. Nice colours & nice simple crest even naming its location without it looking silly

    2: Caquetá - not too much going on but its got stripes (lovely green ones) & stars so..

    3: Formosa - I'm not sure about this one. Its not serious enough. Bit like a mountain range campsite flag or something

    4: Putumayo- I have it in the bottom but I don't hate it. Nice colours

    1: Amazonas - nice design. I like the colours and the crest is nice too. Has a few things on it without it being too much

    2: Bolivár - even with the yucky yellow its still a nice flag. I like the crest on the side rather than the middle. Makes it a little bit interesting.

    3: Caaguazú - not too interesting but the green stars helps it out

    4: Pará- nice flag but a bit on the simple side
