I was just going to ask that same question. I just logged into the FTP and the folder is gone. Is Gary still hanging around? I just finished up the U.S. State flags too.

Hmm. Not only is the flag directory gone but the ability to choose a flag in the profile has been removed too. I wonder if Gary is working on the hack. Strange that it would just disappear.

It's an election year. I'd rather people not know I was from the U.S. right now.
Word of Warning about the Union Jack from a real Brit. Wave my nations flag in my nation, and everyone will think that you belong to the BNP (British Nation Party) and will take you to be a drunken rasist skinhead.
Which is the why I envy American patriots. They can wave a flag and no one will think you're a nazi. The BNP gets right up my nose.

Well, the "shadow" of the flags (red X with alt-text, but no image) is showing up in some forums but not this one, to make it weirder...

They'd have a point in many cases. Why do you think I made a point of asking for a Saltire?

Reminds me of a story a pal told me - SAS troops and Delta Force (US equiv.) troops were on a training mission together. One night the SAS troops got drunk and burned an American flag, which P.O.ed the Yanks, so the following night they burned a Union flag to try and piss the SASers off. The SAS troops proceeded to join in by burning a Union flag too [Apparently at least four-fifths of them were Scottish, for the record]
I have no idea whether any of this is true, but I find it amusing enough that it's worth repeating
