Default Continent Flags

I have sections for every continent (excluding Antarctica).

So I have Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, South America, and North America.

I need a flag to represent each continent. So like, the most popular country in each continent, maybe use their flag. For example, I'm using the U.S. flag to represent North America. Now I need a flag for the other 5 continents that I'm using. What country's flag should I use for each?

How big is the space in which you are putting the images, you could have an outline of the continent. Or a small map of the globe and highlight the continent where applicable.

No, I'll be using flags about this size (http://www.alilg.com/img/flags/us.png).

I just need ideas on which one I should use for each continent. So maybe the most popular, or the biggest, or the most known country in every continent, use their flag.

Why was this moved..? I'm not asking for the graphics. I'm asking for the country names...

Common way to display the continents is using their generic MAP shape.

You guys don't understand.

http://trasion.com/forum.php - look at the country section. I want a flag to go with each continent name, so maybe the most popular country in that continent, I can use that flag.

Of course we understand

But asking for a flag to represent a continent, is plain impossible.

It is not impossible. I am asking for a flag that best suits each one. So maybe the most popular country in that continent, one that most people know, use their flag. It's not that difficult.

Chill mate,

If it isnt that difficult then surely you could do it.

I have listed the continents, pick a flag from each one. that you feel rpresents that continent. But that is like displaying a can of baked beans to signify "gases"

Thinking about this laterally, the only thing that DOES denote continents are the rings on the olympic flag.

Why not do several images of the olympic rings, and then change opacity on each ring, to denote the continent

That's the Australian flag?

Is anyone going to help me here, or just tell me it's a bad idea? I need flags for the other continents.
