Flag icons released!
30th August 2005
Lots of websites and software use data about countries, especially web applications that do statistics or user identification. One would expect that good looking country flags would be abundant, yet having Googled long and hard, I came up with very little. This, plus a week with little to do, resulted in the following icon set.
“Flags” contains 239 small flag images in both PNG and GIF format, one for pretty much every country in the world. It's all free for any kind of use (although theyre not big enough to wave around on your local holidays).
