Also, to me it doesn't quite resemble future but something ancient

Well, what does future look like? His world might be one with very advanced technology but with an architectural style and culture resembling our ancient world. Like I said, anything is allowed in a sci-fi setting. Take a look at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fading_Suns

Yep, that looks a lot better. I got no crits for this one.

She and george bush must have the same speechwriter.

Aesthetically: A very quirky and original symbol. But like Babar said you could reduce the smaller lines and use one shade of yellow to make it a more recognizable shape from far away. I don't think it has to be symmetrical though. The general shape you have now is very nice, would be a shame to lose it.

What does the flag communicate: tranquility, happiness, freedom, light

Is it suitable for a sci-fi setting: everything is suitable for a sci-fi setting

Alright, no more entries. Time to vote.

No more discussions about lassie and barney?  :'(

if you haven't anything worth a post or a topic to say best leave it unsaid.

Or go on the irc channel.

Awesome! *explodes*

Catapult!

Judging from Pablos expression he did use glue, but not on the cards.

You should add a reflection for the guy in the finished game. Otherwise it's going to look weird.

Zooty and Stupot: you have a point there. Now I'm convinced Pablo didnt build that... it was the government! ¬¬

Sorry, offtopic:
Rui, did you get my last pm?

It does indeed. A bit too bright for my taste though so I added some shadows(similar technique as before. new layer, partially transparent, all black except the light radius, gaussian blur)

1. Removed the shades from your original picture and added a new layer which I filled with black and set the transparency to 50%. Removed the unnecesary black with an eraser using a fuzzy circle brush 19x19(you can make straight lines by clicking one point then while holding shift clicking another point). Then softened the shadows further with gaussian blur 10x10.


2. Duplicated the previous layer and set transparency to 30%. Removed some more black(lines connecting the lamps and opposite wall) using the eraser with a fuzzy circle brush 19x19, but without additional gaussian blur.


3. On a third layer(30%-50% transparency) I darkened the area around the column and the farthest door by adding some black and softening it with a gaussian blur 40x40.

My suggestion

Phil Plait vs Stephen Colbert
