Flags

Unread post by Sapphire »

Hi everyone,

I was thinking of ways to make Beast Wars International look more international, and one of the ideas I came up with was having country flags on people's fic pages. For example, in the right hand corner, I'd have a South African flag on my fanfic page. It's just a nice little way of showing how diverse we all are. Before I do it, though, I wanted to ask people here how they felt about that idea, and if the majority are happy with it, I'll go ahead.

Let me know what you think! :)

*nods* Sounds good to me! It'll help with the whole "International" identity of the website... and perhaps not only show where we're from in the world, but where we think our roots are . Say, if I had moved from Germany to America, I might want both flags on my page. But that might get complicated if people want more than one flag.... O_o Um, yeah. It's too late for me to be thinking hard right now. ^^; But hopefully my point has been made.

Maybe, if anyone wants to be specfic on location, there can be a map on their fic/art page, or an incredibly short bio? (name, age, location) I don't wanna give you anything that'd give you a ton to do, though, as the site's owner. Just a thought.

I think for now I'll just do flags, and the flag of the person's main nationality, unless they are very strongly two different nationalities (like first half of their life spent in one country, second half in another, and they proud to be a citizen of both places) otherwise it's going to get too complicated. But I'm glad eveyone's happy with the idea. :)
