Here's some variations on my entry:

Spoiler

I think the second and fourth variations of my entry are the best ones out of the nine.

As for other people's suggestions, ygfbv's is good, as is Revert's. I think Raxion's first flag is the better of his two entries, Alexa's flag is great, and I agree with Cormac that the white and red version of Cere's flag is the best of his entries.

As a flag maker, I think any Osiran flag would benefit from being more so 1:2 rather than 2:3 dimensionally. It's bolder, and in the case of many of these flags, it gives more attention to the symbol. A lot of the suggestions in this thread would be a lot better if they were shorter.

This has potential, but it's hard to look at right now; if you added a black (or white, even) border around the stripes and the symbol and moved them a bit a part, it'd look fantastic. It also matches the forum theme.

May I be so bold as to suggest a collaboration by our new community?

Why not a combination of these three?

was going to border the objects last night, but I got bored/tired.

you meant something like this, ja?

i wish NS supported more flag form factors -- the shrinkage that happens to actual banners is terrifying. ><

Make the borders thicker, and it'll look great.

After that, I'd make it shorter so as to have the symbol centered.

I didn't have time to fix the borders. I copied Barrios' flag entry from wiki commons:
