Let's Build a Town!

[Demeter_Deme]

Yes, 'gla?age' is the French word for icing. People might use this as inspiration, but it can really be anything you want! As long as it's not inappropriate, of course.

I'm glad to hear you'd be willing to donate some fruit! I'll be sure to give you a Kinderdijk Windmill as a reward...

No, I'm joking, as you'll be glad to know. I'm not really sure what the thank you gifts should be yet.

Don't talk to me about windmills.

Something with icing might be easier to design than something representative of the community working on a town together, which is my other idea -- but very abstract.

It does sound very abstract. I don't know how you'd design something like that in the limited amount of space you have, so if you managed to pull that off it'd be amazing! That being said, a cupcake flag could look very sweet too! :3

The road to hell is lined with windmills.

I'm pleased to announce...

The Flag Designing Contest!
Because I couldn't think of a better name​

Think you can design the best town flag for Gla?age? Well, now's your chance! Here's what you have to do:

1) Design a town flag pattern on ACNL. If you need inspiration, gla?age is the French word for frosting. That being said, your design doesn't have to be cake related. It can be anything you want, as long as it's not inappropriate! (Hopefully I won't have to explain what counts as appropriate and what doesn't )
2) Upload your design to this thread by Sunday 16th November, 9pm GMT.
3) You'll need to include a QR code. If you don't want the QR code on the thread, you can just post the flag on the thread and send me the code in a PM
4) Any entries made by the deadline will be included in a poll. Whichever flag gets the most votes will be used as the town flag of Gla?age.

That's all there is to it! Good luck!

Don't worry, I'm sure it'll look good It's probably better than anything I could design, anyway!

 

[Cuppycakez]

I can't design flags very well but congrats to whoever wins!

I'll give it a try!

Do you have the picture saved to your SD card? If you put the SD card into your computer and save it in your files, you should be able to upload the picture in your post with 'Insert Image'...

My flag is almost done, I only have to add the "g" for Glacage and make a snow version. I'll post it soon!

Oh, alright! I'll ask my Dad to help me when he gets home.

Alright, here's an attempt I made via a combination of photoshop and Thulimna's pattern-making tool!

With any luck, both the link and the QR code the tool provided for it will work.

 

[Barbara]

Here you go!

It's the first design I made for someone else, and I'm pretty happy with the outcome.
I would rather keep it myself, but it's all yours now.
There's also a version without snow, though I think this one's a lot better. Enjoy!

It's completely unrelated to the name Gla?age and the theme of frosting, but... here's my submission:



XD

 

[Leela]

They're all really great :3 They'll all be in the poll tomorrow, you'll be happy to hear

As of now, there are about 25 hours left for submissions!

Here's my entry for the flag! Since Glacage means "Icing" in French, and a macaron is a frosting filled french cookie...
INSPIRATION STRUCK

Thanks for the submission, it's accepted! I don't know what "fooper foop" is so I'll just go along with it

Really liking all the entries so far! I'm always amazed by how skilled the people on this forum are at designing.
