Pixel flag icons

I've designed a growing collection of pixel flag icons. Once I complete the collection I'll provide the entire collection for download. Enjoy!

I had someone tell me they like the flags but they are a bit plain. So what I did was add a slight shadow which I think brought the flags to life!

I like them alot, and think the shadow on the flags make them look more realistic, maybe you should make a tutorial on how you made them, would be nice...

Thanks! I'll see if I can write up a tutorial on them if I have time. Just to note, I updated the page to include an abbreviation under each flag, a request by someone. There's 90 flags in the collection at the time of this post.

These are really good - I like what you've done with the shading - but I'd like to see you tackle the flag of Nepal...

Great and a Huge Thanks!

They'll be helpful i'm sure... I agree, the Shadow effect is a great touch...

So which one is a fake?

Mike.

It's obvious to me but that's because I made them! The flag is fake because it's not an actual place (on the web it is though!).

Hee hee - I spotted the fake one. It wouldn't be "The People's Republic Of Jacorre" by any chance, would it?

Beautiful But Need Hong Kong

I love your flag icons and plan on using them on my website and have a link to your site. But I need one more, Hong Kong, for my site. I would rather not attempt one at that size and mess up the flow of your beautiful icons. Any chance you can take a shot at Hong Kong any time soon? Thanks, Tony.

Thanks for the interest in my pixel flag icons. I have added Hong Kong to the collection. The zipped file is updated as well as the page, but here's a quick link to it http://www.jacorre.com/design/flags/hongkong.gif
