Reporting a mix up with some country flags. The flags of the main categories of Norway and Papua New Guinea are mixed up. Haven´t checked if any other flags are affected, though.

Unfortunately it's not as simple as 2 countries being mixed up.

Several other countries are also impacted by this:
  • French Polynesia level one country has Vanuatu flag;
  • Norway level one country has Saint Kitts and Nevis flag;
  • Papua New Guinea level one country has Norway flag;
  • Saint Barthelemy has Sweden flag;
  • Saint Kitts and Nevis level one country has Nepal flag;
  • Switzerland level one country has Somalia flag;
  • Tanzania level one country has Switzerland flag;
  • Timor-Leste level one country has Tanzania flag;
  • Trinidad and Tobago level one country has Timor Leste flag;
  • Vanuatu level one country has Papua New Guinea flag;
  • Venezuela level one country has Trinidad and Tobago flag;
  • Yemen level one country has Venezuela flag.

Nepal, Somalia and Zimbabwe level one countries are also affected. There are probably others which I've missed

Are you guys talking about the flags from the Country List view. If so, I'm not seeing the mix ups and all the flags are in their normal positions.

​Because you need to refresh. "ctrl + f5"

I refreshed and yes they are messed up now

Well I see what you mean. I have never used refresh "ctrl+f5" and have always just clicked the "reload" arrow. So prior to refreshing everything looked fine.

Belarus's flag is mixed up as well. For some reason there is an ex-USSR dictatorship's flag instead of national one...

Because these notes are passed to Xavier every 2 weeks I guess. It has nothing to do with who submit them. Well except with urgent matters like when site goes offline or so. Don't worry.

I fixed the Indonesia level 1 flag. You may need to refresh and/or empty your cache to see it. I guess the Netherland flag is appropriate for Netherlands Antilles level 1.

Ngdawa, I have nothing against you ;)
