    1. Guayas (ECU) - I like the colour and style
    2. Mato Grosso (BRA) - nice colours though the layered shapes I'm not certain of
    3. Trujillo(VEN) - I put off by the set up for no good reason I can articulate
    4. O'Higgins (CHI) - gosh a disappointing flag not to be able to give you a vote on the day that's in it!

    If my memory serves me correctly (from the last one of these) we have a tendency to have the opposite taste in flags and I thought it was terrible so... ;) )

    1. Belém (BRA) - love the colour scheme, the crest is more detailed than I usually like but over all I fee this flag has class
    2. Vaupés (COL) - simple, maybe a tad too simple hmmm?
    3. Wiphala (Andean Peoples) - clearly they were high but the colours cheered me up ;)

    1: Belém - there seems to be some sort of a story behind it. & I like navy too

    2: Vaulpés - bit boring but it's fresh & clean looking

    3: Salta - I know I should probably like it considering some of the others & I'm sure it would eventually grow on me, but for now i'm getting cult vibes off it.

    4: Whipala - Ah here WTH

    A very divisive round. Some loved Wiphala and gave it first preference, others loathed it.

    1 Paraíba (BRA) Not sure the politics behind it but a state flag to commemorate a protest is ballsy so it gets my vote

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,661 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    1: Aysén - I like the silk flags, but I do like the crest on it too

    2: Mérida - Nice colours. Simple but still has some thought put into it

    3: Pastaza - looks a bit boring here but I'm sure on the flagpole it would look much better

    4: Paraíba - No. Just no.

    2. Aysén (CHI) - I think this is doing well be virtue of my lack of preference among the others
    3. Pastaza (ECU) - too much yellow
    4. Paraíba (BRA) - Not sure what Nego means in Portuguese but I don't really like writing on a flag

    Bolivar is the most boring flag in existence. Not a lot of effort went into that one.

    Chuquisaca (BOL) Looks like razor wire


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


    1. Santa Catarina (BRA) - I don't know why but I like this, I'm not sure it will go far but I'll give it a vote for now
    2. Rosario City (ARG) - interesting incorporation of the Argentine flag in the crest along with sun, miniature ships (I know far away ;)), etc.
    3. Bolívar (ECU) - sorry almost Mayo, but you are boring in the scheme of things (are Irish flags just totally boring or what, now that I think about it...?)
    4. Chuquisaca (BOL) - that's like blood covered barbed wire or something :pac:

    I take back what I said about our taste in flags :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,661 ✭✭✭SineadSpears


    1: Rosario - The colours look a bit dull in the picture but im sure it looks better irl

    2: Bolívar - it two colours I don't hate. Nothing stands out but nothing wrong with it either

    3: Santa Catarina - I usually like anything with birds on it, but its a tad Christmas wreath looking. Then also topped with a Smurf hat too. Not the best, but not the worst either.

    4: Chuquisaco - It looks like a road sign, or a Halloween crime scene sheet
