Greetings Allies,

Having grown dissatisfied with our prior banner - little more than coloured stripes fancifully arranged by a designer - Wysteria is seeking a new colour scheme, crest, and banner design. I'll be using this space to ask for community input on what works and what doesn't.

Any thoughts on this one?

It reminds me of star wars. It reminds my flatmates of the union Jack.

I like it though

I doesn't strike me as particularly medieval, nor does it evoke Wysteria to me, idk

I'll try to submit a handful of ideas tomorrow if you like

You're right on both accounts; I like the color scheme myself but it doesn't really fit with the Wysterian ethos. More designs incoming :)

Needs a little more identity perhaps, and yes it is the Union Jack from Great Britain with off-colours :P

I agree with all the others, but I like the idea of yellow! Maybe not with black though?

How about something like this?

It is meant to represent the beacon mine, which is at the heart of Gallen's economy. At the bottom are the savannah plateaus which add dimension to the banner.

I like that design Liserett! Maybe have the savannah plateaus a bit more savannah coloured? Yellowy Orange?

New design:

This one is a variation of Liserett's design, with a revamped color scheme: Yellow background to represent the plains and farmland of Wysteria, a black hill and beacon rising out of it to represent the coal/mines and the importance of industry, and blue waves to represent the importance of ocean trade.

Thoughts?
