AnPheitseog Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 So, I'm three years behind the ball BUT New York State updated their flag as of the 2021 Budget. NYS added E Pluribus Unum as a second motto, which then added it to the coast of arms and by extension the flag and seal.

It looks like it was meant for merchandise and not much else. It’s very much a product of bourgeois white Milwaukee, which happened to be where I hung out the most in the city when I lived there. It also is way too similar to Reno’s actual flag (in the same “merch” style). The “merch” style of flag very much misunderstands the historical circumstances behind the DC/Chicago/Southwestern flags, leading to an artificial sameness. Wasn't Reno's flag designed after Milwaukee's... which was the reason for the controversy? I'd probably agree with the "bourgeois white Milwaukee" comment if I hadn't been around enough to know that's not true. At least not anymore, as that may have been who was behind it at first. But I'm honestly shocked at how many people from different walks of life have embraced the people's flag, or how many places I've seen the people's flag where you never saw the city flag before. Not saying it would have been my first choice of a design, but at this point there's no denying its place as a prominent Milwaukee symbol. I see it as often as I see the Brewers glove and the Summerfest smile. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, perhaps I was a little too hasty in bringing up Milwaukee's various demographic splits. Even though I was last in Milwaukee four years ago, it was kind of remarkable to see how much the People's Flag had penetrated spaces where there was no city flag before. Admittedly, I saw it most in the Lakefront/Third Ward/Brady Street/Fiserv Forum areas, but it wouldn't surprise me if it had penetrated into other districts after I moved. I may not be the most keen on it, but it does have some genuine resonance with people beyond a "merch symbol." 1 Quote MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PERRIN Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 All of his flag concepts have been phenomenal, but this one by Minnesota-based logo and brand designer Allan Peters has been by far my favorite proposal I've seen. Excellent blend of unique Minnesota symbolism, vibrant colors, and traditional flag elements. https://dribbble.com/shots/22944646-Minnesota-State-Flag-Redesign-Option-1 2 Quote Perrin Grubb | Aspiring Designer | NAFA Project ~ NFL Redesigns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Houston Posted November 10, 2023 Share Posted November 10, 2023 I appreciate those trying to incorporate the loon somehow. Be kinda funny to see one of those choices make it into the final few for serious consideration. Also a fine chuckle to the one that submitted "bayg" with a plastic bag on it. Now that's someone we got the assignment!

Germanshepherd Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Appears to be the short list of finalists. A lot of Milwaukee-design core ones here, which is predictable but still disappointing. I like the top left one a lot, especially compared to the rest of the bunch. I’ve never seen a shape like that on a flag before, so that’s the clear winner. I could live with second from left in the middle row, and the far right one at least looks like no other flag I’ve seen, so that could work as well.

The third flag, with what I assume to be a river, would be very unique and a welcome sight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PERRIN Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 1, 3, and 5 are excellent. Would be very pleased with any of those three options. 1 I think is my pick for favorite, but they're all very close in quality. Sad to see none of Allan Peters' submissions earned final consideration, but regardless Minnesota is gonna end up with an excellent flag.
