Would the flag look something like this? A)
B)
link C)
link D) Or do you have a suggestion of your own, or from some other source? Dan |

I'd think it'd feature separated images of each flag, or neither. Or bunting… With a logo for the colony itself in the middle. Actually art? Me? Oh, Dan, you so crack me up… Doug |

Doug Okay, okay. LOL. I went ahead an edited D to include something "from some other source". Dan |

I would fly both flags side by side. There is absolutely nothing in your mashup to indicate "American". |

Winston Well, I've been looking and I was hoping you guys had come across something suitable or something that would inspire the creative juices. Dan |

Japanese rising sun flag with red, white and blue rays.

If you have to have a joint flag then stick a white star inside the red circle. Otherwise use the two separate ones. |

Hinomaru in the corner, stripes and bars on the rest |

I would think both nation's flags would be the choice. Locally, we have a couple of small manufacturers in the area that are joint ventures. They have two equal-sized poles and flags out front for both the US and the other nation's flag. I like that idea because it shows both the nationalist pride as well as shared comradeship. Perhaps a third sign, banner or flag to show the name of the colony itself. |

Tokyo will insist on a big red disc to represent the red planet with solar rays emanating from the Sun behind it….. link |

ZOC : "I like that idea (of separate but joined flags) because it shows both the nationalist pride as well as shared comradeship. Perhaps a third sign, banner or flag to show the name of the colony itself." That's a great solution! Dan |

I could see B) as a post independence flag, assuming Phobos and Deimos are part of it. A) perhaps as a national flag for Mars itself. Perhaps C) can act as a Naval Flag? My only issue is a lack of stars and/or stripes. |

I'd assume a unique flag for the colony. Probably a red circle on a black background with two small white dots on an orbit. |

Stars and Bars with rising suns replacing the stars. Ya know they are gonna rebel down the road !  |

Lol. True. Inevitable. Dan |

I favor the field of Stars and Stripes. The canton ble with a red rising sun in it. |
