Flags... · 5:42am Jun 12th, 2022
Okay, so I'd been seeing a bunch of stuff on Twitter about the Progressive Pride flag, and some people not liking it.

So, obviously, I had to try it. I downloaded the flag, and also the original eight color version of the pride flag, because if I was already changing it, I was going to use the version of the two I liked better. Fixing the issue was really just swapping the blue and pink lines in the triangle, which does mess up the order of the trans flag, but is noticeably better.

And this, makes my eyes and my heart happy.

I was pretty pleased that I was able to come up with a way to fix the design, it worked, and a bunch of people liked it...
