When the EU has 17 members, this'll make us happy! - Looks a bit scary, doesn't it?

Its scary imaging the flag on the euro bills. But it looks like an idea!

Well, if I had to choose between the current EU flag, or the one mentioned in the begin of this item, I will chose the current EU flag.

I would not never change to the current flag with one of the proposed new. The Blue Starry Flag (than in origin it had white stars) symbolizes better than any the Europe: the stars are an unit symbol and the blue of the background represents the twilight, because the Europe word in Greek means "land of obscurity". In that way, or "land of the night", they came anciently calls all the territories to you to north of the Mediterranean, while those to south were the land of the light, or the day.

I'm perfectly happy with the current one. Anyway, the proposal looks like sh*t.

All of the designs proposed are hideous, especially the reverse USA one. Keep the existing one. It's not great, but at least we're used to it.

If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.
