Tank, do you know how to do it ?

This would be nice because i dont really like the austrailan flag with the british flag at the top left. I've attached the flag i would prefer.

http://www.ausflag.com.au/flags/eureka.html

for a small history of it

No sweat if its too hard ;)

PS i can make the flag thr right size etc, if that helps.

Tanks a lot :lol:

ah my mum was born in England she just moved here when her parents dragged her here in the 60's, shes actually still a British citizen
so im only a first generation american, so only history since my parents came over to the US counts :D
oh by the way my dad was born in Germany

i was just surprised how different it looked though, most former british states at least kept a similar flag style

Canada is still like austraila with the head of state being the queen of england. It however doesnt have the british flag in its flag.

BTW. I wasn't born in Australia.

I just like the eureka stockade flag thats all (its in fact older than the current Australian flag)

i can agree with that thinking... what former-colony really wants the mark of their former masters showing on their flag? once you're no longer a colony it's time to live a little...

so higgins, where are you from if not oz? when did you move? and WHY, dammit, WHY?

BTW, in my spare time i was trying to think of the full name for the 'higgins' character. so far i have stuff like 'j. bartholomew luffingcrest higgins' but i still think something better might be on the horizon. :)
