Please Read ALL of first post, second post is Signatures, and there ARE more posts below that.
I havn't been able to keep up with the signatures lately, so I won't be updating the list for awhile. Sorry!
Want to show pride for your country? Sick of people asking "So where are you from in real life?" Show Gaia!
Ok, so what is this crazy person talking about? Well, we want flags! A simple flag for our avatars to hold, or stand in front of, that shows what country we're from. I'm Canadian, I want a Canadian Flag. My friend is from Brazil, she wants a Brazillian Flag. Get the picture?
So, since this is a NEW petition, and I'm sure that it hasn't been done before, things won't be... amazing... for awhile. Please bear with me! My ultimate goal is to make a flag for EVERY country represented here on Gaia, but alas, this takes time. I just don't have that time! Or the patience. It's really not too hard, but it's mind-numbingly dull. Please be patient with me! I would really appreciate suggestions for flags that I have not made/have not put on the list yet.
To sign the petition, post something along the lines of "[Username] signs this petition" or "I sign". I will not post images since they make the page all funny looking. DO NOT PM me with your signatures!
It is my ULTIMATE goal to create a flag edit for every country. Well, it will take me a LONG time, since there are 200+ places considered to be Countries. I may not even be able to find the flags for these countries, who knows? But anyways, if you think that a flag should be there, tell me! Just please make sure you check the Suggestions/In the Works section first, I don't like repetitiveness ^^
Yes, they're not amazing examples, and they aren't necessarily what Gaia would use as a finished product should they chose to use this idea, it's merely my take on it. If anyone wants to make some more examples, I'll luf you forever smile
If you would like to use my bases, just ask! I got them from tektek, but edited the flag holder for personal use, and I have a special photoshop file for the guy standing in front of the flag. If you want any of these, I can upload and link them to you, or, I can e-mail you the photoshop files.
Want to use one of these edits as a banner instead of the ones we have? Just ask for a specific one, and I'll send you the code!

Some rules for the petition forum... I know, rules are evil, but they help the world go around! So, I'll try to keep it short and sweet, but these are subject to change to my every whim!
~Follow the ToS
~Don't stretch the page!
~ Do NOT quote any of the main posts!
~Be nice to people! No flaming.
~I can't really afford to pay anyone for banners made, but if I really like something, I might tip you.
~Please be literate!
~I DO NOT do "I'll sign yours if you sign mine" things. Don't Ask.
That's it for now! Just be nice.
If you want to dispute the idea, please do it in a civilized manor. Lets cap here:
I would like to state that Yes, it is highly improbable that the Gaian Admins would make a flag for every country, and would all around be alot of hassle for them. But! Don't say something like "They won't do it because there's just too many countries." I KNOW! Listen to my idea for this:
Of course releasing every flag at once would be bothersome. So I suggest that they could open a flag STORE, where they originally open with some of the basic flags from the most represented countries on Gaia, for example, America, Australia, Canada, blah blah. Like, twenty to start.
Then, they can add more as time progresses.
This way, it would not be a strain to do all at once, and no Gaians would be left out, they would just have to wait for the Admins to create another set of flags.
Alternatively, one of the suggestions was a Gaia World flag. I like this idea, but not as much as I would like to have my own countries flag flying ^^
This is where I DON'T mind if you PM me... I'll Luf you for using my banners! Just specify which one you want, and I'll give you the code. I don't list posting the code because it's fickle and doesn't like working for me alot of the time, or if I do an edit, it changes (and I do ALOT of edits on this page)... So ask away! Or, you can use one of the flag edits as a banner! Just ask.

Liechtenstein has signed this petition.
And, as a note, I think even if it doesn't work out you've created images that people can simply use in their signatures.
Anyway, since you seemed to be welcoming additional flags, and since it really didn't take long to do once I'd gotten the basic files (I didn't delete the front part of the flag, just stuck it behind the person, which undoubtedly saved a lot of time), I made a bunch more flags, using your style. If I'm treading where I shouldn't have, my apologies, and feel free to just ignore me.

Iceland:

Israel:
Laos:

Then, as an example for what it could look like, and because it was fun to make, I did this, for Scotland:

I made edits of the Chinese flag for you. I also made an edit of what a headband might look like.
