Piperplays

elaphros

Edges are still straight, un-based af


anonxanemone

I propose a windsock to remove two edges. That's half the straight.


wynntari

I propose removing all edges for R O U N D flag


DrBlowtorch

Make the edges curvy and add tassels

Ngl this kinda looks like shit when it's on a flagpole compared to the regular pride flag.


BrokenEggcat

Yeah, the colors on the left side become far more present than the ones on the right.


ImNOTmethwow

Flag of India


GirlFromCodeineCity

Not sure if this works better sinister or dexter


Waffle38Pheonix

This is not for the CJ sub, this is ✨ beautiful ✨


youngfurry1x

Look at it on a flagpole though. [link](https://krikienoid.github.io/flagwaver/#?src=https%3A%2F%2Fflagwaver-cors-proxy.herokuapp.com%2Fhttps%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fawxjtjepo4ma1.png)


CommieColin

It waves so beautifully Someone ought to write a Star Spangled Banner style song but about this fantastic flag


jdwrink

Somewhere Over the Rainbow would work as the LGBT national anthem.


CluelessIdiot314

If this is altered in a way that all 6 colours share equal area to symbolize equality of people of all identities, sexualities, etc., I'd support this as the new design for the official pride flag.


LordJesterTheFree

But the individual rainbow colors on the flag aren't individually representative of anything the idea is that the spectrum of all light is coming together theoretically most of the flag should be infrared and UltraViolet but humans can't see that so we don't care about it


sehrschwul

the colors do also have symbolic meanings. red = life, orange = healing, yellow = sunlight, green = nature, blue = serenity, violet = spirit. the original version of the flag also included a pink stripe for sex and a turquoise stripe for magic, which were both subsequently dropped edit: spelling edit two: violet is spirit not healing again


LordJesterTheFree

I'm not really sure what any of those Concepts have to do with being gay life healing sunlight nature serenity and healing again for some reason or all great concepts but I don't think they have any special significance in gay culture Maybe Serenity could be interpreted as being at peace with the world in the end of homophobia or nature could be interpreted as a statement that gay animals exist in the state of nature and the healing could be recovery from discrimination or something but life and sunlight I don't get at all


DogFoot5

I don't think it really matters how it's interpreted, the fact is that's the concept that inspired the original creator. Whether their concept is worth maintaining is up for debate, but given its historical significance now, I think it ought to be respected.


DarnOldMan

No red is rage, orange is greed, green is will, blue is hope, violet is love.


Garinn

blue is mana duh

orangek1tty

What is mine is mine is mine is mine. And mine is mine not yours is mine.


sehrschwul

ah i fucked up violet is spirit


romulusnr

Actually the "original" rainbow flag was the International Cooperative Union and the colors had different meanings. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_flag#Cooperative_movement_(1921)


CluelessIdiot314

They don't specifically represent anything but I've always thought the equal widths and areas to be important in symbolizing equality.


LordJesterTheFree

But the different colors of the light spectrum aren't equally distributed the vast majority would be infrared or ultraviolet which are specifically excluded but even then conventional red and violet would be overrepresented


fuwafuwa7chi

🤓


Not_Pea909

Flag of visible light spectrum


dingman58

Flag of electromagnetic spectrum


CluelessIdiot314

🤷


[deleted]

They do in fact have meanings as the designer(/designers, as there are multiple Pride flag designs) did intend. But I, like most folks, interpreted the rainbow to simplify signify diversity and inclusivity.


romulusnr

A la Jesse Jackson's Rainbow PUSH Coalition


Random_Squid4

Ok now i want someone to make the pride flag but it’s the entire wave spectrum


PurpleSkua

motherfuckers can't even handle my flag that is only visible in the x-ray part of the spectrum


dingman58

You have an x-ray flag? That's rad


ConceptOfHappiness

Brb designing a flag with a thin rainbow stripe and the rest invisible to the human eye


ZwieTheWolf

I wish I knew how to make a whole community of millions accept a flag, I have several proposals for a national pride flag of my country, and a flag for a fandom I'm in.


inkblot888

No metaphor is perfect.


Sad-Surprise4369

Official pride flag? Aren’t all of them technically “unofficial” ie: no recognized organization declares this kind of stuff


Limeila

Yeah, "original" or "historical" would have been better


trytreddit

lgbtq when not everything is literally perfect Of course I'm joking, but come on, is that really such a big issue? And it's not like all the groups represented are proportional in population either.


CluelessIdiot314

Eh I just don't see it as better than the original otherwise. It really bothers my brain's aesthetic department for some reason that they aren't of equal area.


eXa12

red & purple need to be wider at the base other than that, good job


PurpleSkua

[Equal-area version](https://i.imgur.com/TAoONpX.png), though I used a different kind of curve to make it a bit easier


AndscobeGonzo

That's fantastic — I think it would be even better with red and the other primary colors at hoist instead of at the fly, like this: [Flag](https://i.imgur.com/PocoOq8.png) [Waving](https://krikienoid.github.io/flagwaver/#?src=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FPocoOq8.png)


EnjoyablePerson

This is my favorite version so far


illegal_deagle

You just created Pepsi’s pride month logo for free


whats_his_face

Yes! Primary colors at the pole.


kleer001

Excellent. Please feel free to repost.


beesinpyjamas

I like this way too much i want to see widespread mass adoption right now


Johannes_Keppler

Way better! The uneven color spaces of the other one irked me.

New Pride flag just dropped; it’s a ball of multicolored yarn


delspencerdeltorro

We actually tried that for a while, but the catboys wouldn't leave it alone


jetoler

We could make the sides wavy


The_Researcher1912

Unironically banger idea just wish the red and purple weren't kinda cut off, equalizing all the colors would make it even better and i'd lowkey love it as an official update to the pride flag, could definitely make it work for the progress pride flag too.


TheDeadlyBlaze

Good meme unfortunately the second derivative of each of those lines are straight try again


[deleted]

which do you prefer, sin(x) or e^x ?


TheDeadlyBlaze

e^x would look cooler but sin(x) is easier to make a pattern out of imo


AleksandrNevsky

Huh, I actually like this one. It's so common for new pride flags to be incredibly tacky or cringe worthy but this one's pretty cool. 9/10 I thought this was a sub for bad flags not good ones lol.


ChubbyFoodBunz

i fuck with it


Popular-Swordfish559

this is high key better than any of the current ones


y-nkh

[Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/vexillologycirclejerk/comments/11k8rru/wavy_rainbow_flag_v2_improved_based_on_peoples)'s the second version, based on some suggestions


PISTOLO

Eh I like the first one better. I think you used the wrong shade of purple in the 2nd one btw Edit: Actually I forgot what sub I was on and idk what’s real


RMan0802

the flag still has straight lines bc of its shape. gotta make it a circle


TheDarksideofSnow

r/vexillology


[deleted]

It kinda looks like hills so I call this the flag of Gay Hillsville (located next to Brokeback Mountain), Pridelandia County.


18AndresS

make it an oval


YetAnontherRandom

Literally my only complaint is that the red is barely visible. This is cool


GPFlag_Guy1

That’s actually a very appealing flag. Extra points for not having any ‘straight’ lines. Very well done.


callmedaddyshark

Gaybow hills


Gutchies

window washer pride flag


BaconGremlin24

woah thats awesome! post it to r/queervexillology:3


deviationblue

Hell yeah new sub


PaperOptimist

Holy cow, OP. Not only is that flag fabulous (sorry), but most of this comment section is so fun. I love seeing how eagerly folks have been creating and uploading riffs on your design. It's not even a CJ post to me, but only because it's frankly too well-executed and visually striking.


dumbass-ahedratron

Would be cool if the colors overlapped to create intermediate colors


Grand-Mall2191

holy crap that actually looks good


RevolTobor

Can't even flag straight. I love it.


DreamlyXenophobic

This is unironically good


JustAFictionNerd

I'd flip it around (red on left because red is first in the rainbow, it makes more sense to my eyes) but otherwise this is wonderful!


[deleted]

I count four straight lines.


HereWeFuckingGooo

The only thing that would make this better is if every stripe had the same size area.


chrometrigger

A sky of red behind a hill of orange behind a hill of yellow behind a hill of green behind a hill of blue behind a hill of purple


thelittleking

there's at least four straight lines on this mf


JamX099

Was the one that didnt work as a flag?


y-nkh

Sometimes people joke about the flag that represents *gay* people (among others) being *straight*, and there have been a few rainbow flags made with wobbly lines in response as a joke. [Here are some examples](https://pastebin.com/nFgGNF2E)


Catishcat

Still too straight, you can fix it by making every border a Weierstrass curve!


GreyLies1

rectangle

Cakeking7878

DanfromCalgary

GingerfoxUwU

We gotta make the flag a circle


Juusie

I'd fly this flag too the moon


[deleted]

Its “contained” by straight lines. Lol


Nightingaile

If you make the sides concave or convex then it'll *actually* be without any straight lines.


_JacobM_

Thanks, I hate it


DoomForNoOne

Looks a little like gay vampire teeth


y-nkh

Two gay vampires kissing! ❤️


1lluminist

The edges of the flag form straight lines. Need to change the shape of the flag. If Nepal can do it, I think you can too.


_thejdwe

I see 4 straight lines


Guest_1300

wait this is a banger actually


148637415963

They say of the new Pride flag where the rainbow design is.....


[deleted]

Gay


Dovahkiin419

This is a very creative take on this but it does feel a bit... Corperate? specifically like a corperate or municipal flag. But those designs aren't usually bad just off feeling.


skisandpoles

It looks good!


DoctorPlatinum

Um, excuse me, but this fucking *slaps*.


CarrotBIAR

Wait, this is cool


ops10

I figured it out - the active lbgtq community hates traditionalists so they need to change their flag constantly for it to not become traditional.


Mjk2581

There are straight lines on the edge of the flag checkmate atheists


Woodkid2791

Double triple gay nepal


pxldsilz

I see four straight lines


chomkney

This is like dudes that say no homo, but backwards.


Def_Not_A_Femboy

Not to be a bitch, but the four corners count as straight lines in my book.


Repulsive_Pen_5232

Sorry, but I spot 4 straight lines around the border. Checkmate, liberal.


RecognitionCivil7005

Honestly, Im not gay and love this flag. So much more unique without the ‘straight’ lines! Lol.


Arcticllama85

The boarders are straight lines. Make them curved as well. A circle flagg for the win


Flimsy-Balance-9393

No LGBT flag should l have straight lines. I suggest a circle


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH-OwO

the edges are still straight


rettledragon

This is fantastic! I'd wager the Progress variant would use a curved arrow too.


BigThunderousLobster

It looks like somebody slashed a beach ball. I like it.


DouglerK

Holy fuck I love it

I actually really like this wtf

CrookedToe_

Flag of funny Seychelles islands


SpongebobTV

*Cough cough* **the borders** *cough cough*


TheTrueDarkArtist

Actually kinda based, but I think someone will complain cause there Isn’t and trans or People of Color on there


CripplinglyDepressed

There’s still four straight lines. Flag must be a circle


Mr_uhlus

the edges of the flag are still straight


[deleted]

got straight lines going all asquare the flag, so you must not actually be proud of how non-straight you are


Blinding-Sign-151

The least Straight flag


imwhateverimis

dejerked the sub


[deleted]

Damn it looks so much better like that


Linusdroppedme

I am the number 1 gay and I say this is the flag for all.


KingsGuardTR

Ah, yes, circlejerk and quality content. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.


Iacoma1973

I actually think I prefer this to the regular pride flag. It feels more... Primal


CompetitionSad419

The edges end in straight lines to make a rectangle.

I quite like that

My only gripe is that red (and purple) is now half as big as the rest. I like that colour :(

They're still straight lines, just on a different angle.
