Re: Team Flags
 

We have had some home-made flags in the past, but a couple years ago we had one professionally made. I can't remember the company but it was online.

*edit, found the webiste:http://www.flagsnpennants.com/


We needed to upload the graphics (in .eps format) and they printed it on the flag fabric.

I believe it cost us about $100.00 for a 3'x5' flag.
They sent a proof first before they made it, took about 2 weeks to get it.


Hope this helps.

May i suggest reading the posts in this thread before posting? Especially when that is what this thread is about. Its not like this is a game hint thread with 800 posts....

In my experience, a 3x5 flag is "the right size" for FRC events. Its big enough to be impressive, without being so big its unwieldy.

1712 has a moderately large flag that was made early in our history. However, it was made mostly of felt, so it's quite hefty. One of our MCs last year did a bit where she "curled" the flag rather than waiving it during some of our match intros.

Team 1100 has a very large flag (about 4ft by 6 ft as well). We use a long piece of steel pipe to hold our flag.

Who needs a flag...

But in all honesty its a bit unwieldy at times.

Flags aren't part of the game so there are some teams that make things even as crazy as an axe made out of subway fare cards (cough tech knights cough). Most teams just do flags though... It'd be pretty cool to see some new ideas.

The giant plush calculator is by far my favorite "flag" even though it isn't a flag. It is often difficult to read team flags as the MC waves them around quickly. But when that little guy goes up in the air there is no doubt in your mind that the Fighting Calculators will be playing in this match.

There's a "forgot password" area.
Please read the thread, where people explain that there are no restrictions, but keep in mind that the MCs have to wave it and carry it, and do so with many flags all day. So, keep it reasonable.
Other than that, go crazy!
Also, google is your friend.
