Here is the Scottish East India company flag - the Scots attempted to colonize on the isthmus of Panama - and of 16 ships only one got back to scotland. They couldn't handle the mosquito's!!!

It is actually a pretty cool flag - and for all those modders out there...
For the fans of Irish lager - it is the GUiness flag!! http://www.fotw.net/images/i/ie~guinn.gif
That FOTW site is pretty interesting to read up on... Check it out if you can _________________ "My Lord, it is a very hard sentence. For my part, I am the innocentest person of them all, only I have been sworn against by perjured persons."

Definitely an interesting read. There are plenty of great looking flags (not national flags) which could be used as your flag in Pirates! _________________ Shiver me timbers!!!
