Flag image[edit]

Before

After

@Supermiiu: Thanks for updating the flag, but what source are you using for reference?

My understanding is that it's meant to be a representation of a specific cave painting from the area, which the detailed muscular version seems to be moving away from. Belbury (talk) 17:24, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, you are in fact correct, and this muscular version should be replaced, I'll correct it in a while.

Also, the reference you provided seems to be a bit off, the flag seems to be based on this painting, so that's what I'm going to base it on in the next version. Thank you. Supermiiu (talk) 17:37, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like there's another photograph of that painting at File:Candamo IMG 5997.jpg. The link above may well be the same one seen (and interpreted!) from a different angle, on uneven rock.

Are there any official drawings or photographs of the flag out there? Belbury (talk) 17:44, 25 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again. The new reference seems to show a bit more of the back legs, so it's pretty useful.

The real problem I find with the flag is that it isn't depicted anywhere in a photograph, but there are some flag-selling websites that sell this version of the flag, which is a direct replica of the old png but in vector graphics.

But something I discovered is that Candamo's city hall has a photo on their website that shows a flag with the "new" coat of arms (that also isn't present on wikipedia and I couldn't find as a vector graphic anywhere) of Candamo, so maybe that's what we should base a completely new version of the flag on.
