I know that was a little while ago, but could you PLEASE post the source for that amazing flag (before made into little flag) thanks.

Took me a few seconds to make this:

All those flags were incredible. How do you guys make them in the format that can be used in Victoria? There are a few flags that I want to use. Can someone tell me how to do it? Do I need a special program to design them?

The flag templates can be found in the Goodies folder, which should be somewhere with Your Victoria files. You could use whether Photoshop or Gimp to edit them. Once you start creating flags, it'll get more difficult, but you should find some tutorials on the Internet.
 
Need base, republic, commie, monarch and fascist for the following please

Netherlands East Indies (for republic, use Indonesia)

Maasai (for republic, use Kenya)
 
I'll try to make them all if no one will make them in next few weeks, but I can do it in late September... I know it's late but still.
I have made before full flags and shields set for Araucania and Patagonia for my own User Defined states in non-VIP version Victoria if you need them (IIRC you plan to add it in future):

Araucania and Patagonia - base flag:

actually thanks for those Araucania/Patagonia, yes we can use them.

No major rush on the other flags, late Sept will be fine. I'll have a few more to post as well.
 
Another flag we need variations for

Rwanda (actually an old Burundi royal flag, workable since the victoria province includes both Rwanda and Burundi in the same province).

Is the Bamum base flag supposed to be that colour?? Or is it a black and white photograph of some royal fabric that we don't have the original colours to?

It was from a color photo, so it is that color.

Well then... I'm no interior designer, but that is the worst colour scheme for a flag EVER! It's actually horrible! No wonder why they didn't last into the 20th century... they couldn't even afford colours!

Keep in mind it's not a flag, it's based off a royal fabric that was reserved for the high chief as a symbol of office, more like a robe of honor.

Even if the color pattern is muted (and given that some of the natural dyes may have faded over time in the hot tropical climate, not surprising) but the intricacy of the weaving pattern is quite admirable IMHO.
