Yesterday , New Zealand announcedfour finalist for its masthead redesign competition , which got us thinking about which other places postulate newfangled flag immediately . The solvent was all cities , which tend to have really bad flag . So we asked you , our fair reader , to portion out theworst metropolis flagsto ever ascend a pole . As common , you did n’t let down .

After mind toRoman Mars ’ TED Talk on flag design , we were determined to discover the most egregious . Like this treasure from Provo , Utah ( above ) which is corking in a Centrum Silver kind of room . But Provo is one of the favorable one . They really redesigned their flag this year , and it ’s pretty nice !

It ’s prescribed ! The Modern Provo City iris was unanimously O.K. @ tonight ’s Council Meeting.http://t.co/qjmKZ5TUFbpic.twitter.com/VLjJMfmliQ

Starship Test 9

— Provo City ( @provocity)January 7 , 2015

These other cities , though , need to step it up . lease ’s take a tour of some of the worst vexillological wrongdoer .

Too Simple

Yes , simple is good , but these are so abstractionist that they ’re nonmeaningful . A flag should be a flag , not an acrobatic logotype . And when did Arby ’s move to Calgary ?

Minneapolis, Minnesota

Reno, Nevada

In cause you get fall back .

Phoenix, Arizona

Clip-Art Fauna

speak of birds , there are a fortune of birds uncommitted as clip - art , which is where all these flag seem to have originated .

San Francisco, California

Vancouver, Washington

Rochester, Minnesota

Geese from the future .

Melbourne, Australia

Made with MacPaint

These fleur-de-lis were proudly designed using the finest Apple production . In 1988 .

Trying Too Hard

Some flag designs just do n’t know when to blockade . Someone narrate these urban center that they ’re at an 11 and we need them to bring it down to at least a 4 .

Sydney, Australia

Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Tampa, Florida

Just Plain Confusing

These are where symbolism has gone awry . Seattle ’s seems to be made for a metropolis named Goodwill , Toronto ’s face like a keister , and what the netherworld is up with the fish in Kvalsund ?

Seattle, Washington

Grand Rapids, Michigan

Whoever brand this called it Ms. Pac - Man after a bender hahahaha
