The Royal Academy of Vexillology has adopted a new banner, provisionally blazoned as follows:

A triangular swallowtail quarterly vert and gules, I. two trumpets in saltire or over a three-tailed banner palewise of the third.


Furthermore, the Academy's wiki page has been created, which may be found here.

This is a great start! I love the color recommendations on the wiki and the attempt to standardize the provincial banners, although I do prefer the lime green and sherbet orange of the original Maricopa flag image.

Great job!

This is a good point. Perhaps I should submit an amendment to the Cabana to make the flag colors more explicit...

Don't go changing the colors of the Maricopan flag now! We spent a long time several years ago designing that flag, including the existing colors.

I had a feeling that one might be controversial! Some of the colors I listed are derived from other ones -- for example, the orange is derived from mixing Bicoloreu Red and the listed shade of Gold.

Averaging RGB colors is a little like doing geometry. If you want to average two colors, you have to do it one at a time (R, G, then B). If one of them is A and one is B, the corresponding R/G/B coordinate for the resulting color C is basically found using the Pythagorean Theorem: (A2 + B2) / 2 = C2. Using this method, I have averaged the proposed colors with the current Maricopan flag colors and arrive at the attached, which I think does a good job of capturing the current flag while being a bit less...visually-jarring, you might say. (This isn't intended as an insult to the good people of Maricopa, as no province's flag is perfect.)

Hmmm.. Cézembre's could be actually, no debate on the various shades of our colours.
But may be we should discuss about some variation which would differentiate our provincial flag from Britany's Gwenn ha Du
