Creating a flag for Project 5: Sightseer is a matter of creating an image of the correct dimensions, saving it as a png file, and then getting the server's administrator to upload it.


First, create an image in your favorite paint program with the dimensions of 512px x 512px or use this template image. Draw the flag in the upper 512px x 372px area of the image.



If your flag doesn't have any transparencies, you may want to bleed the final line of pixels in the remainder of the image to avoid a white or black line from appearing on the bottom of the flag. The UK flag included with the game is an excellent example of this.

If you are the administrator of a Project 5: Sightseer server, place the flag image in your local clients documents folder. On Windows this will be in: \Documents\Sightseer\Flags

Launch Project 5: Sightseer and in the chat window, if your image is called MyFlag.png, write /addFlag MyFlag

It will tell you how many bytes were uploaded and everyone will be able to access it by typing MyFlag into the flag's text field.
