Some states, like mine have really lousy designs, but Idaho, NY, NJ, michigan and others like those I really like.delete mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02427124027323406531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1790221709949639711.post-48739956954165968692014-01-17T11:19:16.089-08:002014-01-17T11:19:16.089-08:00".

Terrible design too - it manages to be cluttered with detail (all of it pretty generic) and still look just like over half of the other state flags. And it has text on it.
