@admin@exploding-heads.com -- I think it would be a good idea to begin stylizing a lot of the major country communities with icons (I propose just using the 'flag' icon) and background images.
For instance, I just made the Niger community, and previously made the Panama, Greece, and Malaysia communities, all faithfully with a flag and background image of an iconic site or scenic picture from the country.
Yet, there are some major communities like this that I use frequently that do not have any such icons or background images, like:
India
Italy
China
Japan
Russia
Ukraine
etc. etc.
My proposal is quite simple: just start throwing up icons & background images for these places yourself, Kapow or local moderators...
Or give me the authority to do so.
I am a high volume user and one of my main interests is in archiving and cataloguing news and major events, and so I can really tell you that I will commit zero site vandalism and only wish to have our site prettier and more enticing.
I also won't object in the least when I am removed from the mod position after adding flag/image to places.
... Let me also say: I am preapred to do this for all 50 states and other communities..!
Would also love to see others participate.
Here is another way we could do it:
Allow anyone to go to these communities and submit a thread called "Proposed Icon & Background" or "Proposed Icon," "Proposed Background" (putting them separately).... and then you can just work yuor way around to adjusting them.
Either way, I think it would be good for the site.
