What icon for Ireland?

[Shippou-Sensei]

FFS, how the fuck can I tell if poll is done or not????

It would have to have had a closing date. Don't know if you can add one after it has started.

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

Although shouldn't there be another one with the actual icons available?

In my addled brain, thought I gave it 28 days... evidently not

Anyways, Harp it is.

FridgeMagnet can we have our winner made official puhlease? Many thanks!

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

It would probably be Lazy Llama rather than Fridge

But we're still limited to the icon selection right?

Yes. I don’t see a harp in there, unless I’m missing it.

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

Bit limited in musical instruments. They do have cowbell if we need a compromise.

They have a very good sci-fi section though.

If you filter it it narrows it down to 6000 or so as most of them are just different weightings of the same design.

But I couldn't find anything suitable.

I did find one that looks like the Four Courts but that's very Dublincentric.

There were some "comedy" ones like explosions, rifles, cups of tea but only we get to make jokes about that.

The cow is a pretty good design

Feck it. Type in "harp" and it gives you stars, person harassing and hard hats.

The Green Harp flag predates the partition of the island of Ireland and, as a result, the Irish Harp transcends the modern, partitioned borders and represents the island as a whole.
Also.. the harp became part of the symbolism used by the Crown...
Ans it was rejected by Irish republicans because of its ties to Great Britain. The Blue Harp was the standard of the Kingdom of Ireland, and was then incorporated into both the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland's flag and a quadrant of the Royal Standard of the United Kingdom to represent Northern Ireland.

After partition the Harp on a green ground was replaced with tricolor...the white in the middle was supposed to represent peace between the orange and the green. ..
I believe if we were ever to have a United Ireland that we should look at coming up with a new flag.

Is interesting, didn't know that.

I like the tricolour. It's simple, looks nice and has no associations with the British crown. There's no need to change it.

Plus it's good for confusing certain knobbers who don't know the difference between the Ireland and Ivory Coast flags

okay i figured out my problem. when i apply dark mode, the icon changes to plain quote bubbles. in basic and winterval tho', the little cowie is there. this is on phone (Samsung). no problem at all Lazy Llama but a quirk of xenforo that you may want to file away.

Thanks, I need to sync the dark and normal styles. Will try to do it in the morning.

Ah, that’s the cowie! I had no idea what people were on about!

I'm also on permanent dark mode so was also (no pun intended) left in the dark.

I guessed my cache hadn't cleared or something.

I'm relatively happy with Cowie.

Not quite dragon level but better than the pyramids I think.
