This is a .psd file containing many heraldic patterns and chargers to use in flags.

This template is considered open source. Use as you will, although saying thanks if you use it would be nice.

Cool!
I might use that if I grow tired of the re-used vanilla flags

 

[superskierpat]

Nice, good job Korbah

 

[Korbah]

Added cross chargers, also decided what the hey, lets make it "open source".

 

[Korbah]

Updated the template with new Ermine and Vair patterns and some star chargers.

If you have them, you should include some Muslim heraldry. Pen boxes, bows, etc.

Do you have to use Photoshop to use this? I'm running Linux using GIMP, but I can't seem to see the flags when I open it.

In theory it should open with Gimp, I don't use Gimp though so I'm not the best authority.

You can open PSD with Paint.Net with a plugin.

For gimp you need .psd plugin and ghostscipt.

I can't seem to find the exact plugins anywhere. I hear the latest version of GIMP already comes with ghostscript anyway.

 

[talias]

Sorry talked non-sense, newest gimp should open .psd files normally, but it sometimes messes up layer modes. Older version of gimp that I'm still using couldn't open .psd and needed ghostscript and plugin, but it doesn't mess up layers.

 

[LumberKing]

Maybe it's the layer modes that's cocking up. How do you fix this, you know?

For anyone having trouble with GIMP: for some reason when you open a .psd file the layers get reversed. You just have to manually reorder them.
Or get this .xcf file, it already has the layers in the correct order.
