NH Flag Redesign (lemmy.world)

Variants:

Made this rough draft on my phone after finding out the state of New Hampshire has a proposal to add the state motto to the flag (a seal on bedsheet) in Times New Roman font to try and make it unique.

Symbolism: It is a depiction of an ice axe (or mountaineering axe) at the summit of a mountain. NH is home to the White Mountains, including the highest peaks in New England. It symbolizes rugged determination in the face of adversity.

A couple more variants on your theme:

For those who enjoy swimming in cold water.

It's fine, nothing to be ashamed of and there are treatments available.

At this point, the NH state flag needs to be a solid yellow square with a pile of trash bags at center and the state motto in Comic Sans. Folks don't seem to know the difference between libertarian and anarchist in the worst ways possible.

Other's perception of a political philosophy doesn't mean my state doesn't deserve a decent flag.

The flag should be a bunch of trash bags and one bear that looks like a trash bag. Different place on every flag so you can play Where's Wally with him

Also so you don't have to be that fancy at the flag factory. Unless you accidentally make two flags with half a bear
