Thoughts? I'm not thrilled with it myself. I thought there were so many other pretty ones in contention. It does look more traditionally flag-like than many of them though.

A State flag should reflect its past, respect the present, and inspire the future.
This flag does none of that. It is a 'design by committee' response to a problem flag. It is every General Motors vehicle since the mid-60s after Harley Earl and Zora Arkus-Duntov retired.
