Before starting on this project, Mr. Bryan showed us a few books with flags and explained the elements that make up a good flag design, like not placing design elements on the right side so that fraying won’t ruin the meaning of the flag.
This is my personal flag created in Graphic Arts. It took me only about half-hour to come up with the design.
Extract from explanation:
To begin, the flag’s proportions are 16:10, which is the standard for computer widescreen monitors, which shows my interest in technology and is also an approximate to the Golden Rectangle. The blue rectangle in the middle is 2.39:1, which is the standard for an anamorphic picture in cinema. The red stripes, white stars on blue represents the flag of the United States and France, two countries that I partially associate with. The stars are in the arrangement of the constellation Orion, one of the more recognizable constellations in the northern night sky, which represents my love for amateur astronomy.
The seven-pointed stars are a symbol of perfection in Christian religions.
Wow Dude. Loving it – very grabbing. Your explanation (that isn’t the whole thing?) is pretty unique too. My favorite part is the cinema dimensions. They’re very recognizable and pleasing to the eye. Thanks for the link!!
I think you should start your own country. You have the principle element and it beats the heck out of a LOT of real flags out there!!!! 😉 (would like to see the rest of your explanation if that’s only an extract)

Actually, that is the whole thing. Sorry for the confusing wording 🙂
You failed to mention the archery connection in your choice of constellations!
