    We should wait with voting until one of us or Snoopy posts ingame screenshots of each.

          We know how our current flag looks like. Personally, I don't like how the Alpha Centauri A sun is stretched although as a civgroup icon it is perfect. We don't know how the other symbols look in game.

            Maybe there are too little options?

                    It is simpler but does not ACer like the two sun one does.

                      I was rather thinking of the Transcend specialist citizen icon.

                      Though eg Illuminatus avatar aka the Ascent to Transcendence graphic would be great as well IMO.

                        What I thought of when I said "other tao icon".

                          That tao icon is very good I wonder how the details will turn up.
                          I am home now, I'll investigate the matter of adding new flags and post screenshots.

                            I thought the same.

                              I've tinkered a bit, when Snoopy369 provides me with the cIV mod so far, I'll be able to experiment more.

                              I've modified Greek world scenario (as I can't find flags for ordinary 18 civs ) and tried the fancy tao symbol. You can see the results or my second attempt (don't ask about the first one ) below.

                              I can say that I believe the less detail the better - meaning that Hive or ordinary tao symbol would work quite nice, but current one or my avatar could seem a little blurry due to soft transition. I'll try the transcend icon graphic next.
