The Austrian Government Has Ripped Me Off!

Austria is just a convict country full of rejected british criminals anyway. I'd rather be in new zealand. Crocodile Dundee was good though. And Steve Irwin.

I was about to post a nasty comment about your knowledge of history / the world / geography / (<<the weather in yourcity , etc...>>

till I read this :
There's no such thing as Australia.

You do realize the flag on the left is the Austrian flag, right?

I'm just kind of curious as to why it's all english.


edit: after a second look at the stamp. maybe it is just a US flag and they were stupid. because the scale is out between the 2 flags. US flag is way too zoomed in respect to austrian flag if it is 2 flags..

thats stupid. i'd figure they would use both the flags. you know it being an austrian stamp and all

edit #2. 3rd look at the stamp pic - that is def. both flags.
 
You might have an argument. The left sides looks to be your strongest point. However one thing I noticed is that there is an extra fold and star on the left side of the stamp, which is absent on your banner. Is that the exact version of the banner you posted? Is there a larger version out there? The shadows could have been easily added, but that fold and star looks extremly natural.

Link to the original flag picture you used for the background?
 
Actually the stars and blue section is identical, save for some cropping. By "identical" I mean exact dimensions, identical jpeg artifacting ..

I won't accuse anyone of anything, but I will say that I could much more easily create the political banner from the stamp image than vice versa. 🙂
