Flag proposal 2009

A flag representing the childlove movement is currently being formed. Childlovers and allies will use the flag to spearhead the awareness campaign.

The Proposals Stage is nearing a conclusion, and the Voting Stage is next in line.

Voting

The submissions we have received are not final ideas, but concepts that will be worked on once they are chosen. In this sense, choosing a concept should be a matter of potential rather than superficial features (colour, finish, etc) of the blueprint. The concept will be chosen by a simple vote held on a number of related forums, with one vote and one reserve (tie-breaker) vote allocated to each registered screen name, and no one individual may vote on two or more different sites.

Candidates

These are the concepts which may be voted for.

Abstract
AmaroSymbol
CLogo	The CLogo is a traditional childlove symbol. It depicts a butterfly whose wings are formed by four hearts. Two are larger than the other two representing the adult and the child. Two are pink and the other two blue representing the masculine and feminine.	Symbol widely accepted as associated to childlove and past movements.	Already associated with a narrowly defined movement, hard to reproduce.

Heart	The heart is commonly associated with love, and for a long time has referred to the spiritual, emotional, moral, and intellectual core of the human being.	Easily recognised universally as a sign of love Covers love from all beings and in all forms rather than restricting to defined parametres of acceptance	May be too general; not unique to childlove
Multiflag
Phoenix
Rainbow	The original Rainbow Flag was designed by the LGBT and has been used to convey one message: "diversity." The rainbow consists of many equal stripes of different colours across the visual spectrum, representing different individuals coming together harmoniously.	Depicts similarity and relation to LGBT Buffs the message of "diversity" with more diversity	Consists of many colours, making physical production more expensive May increase tension between LGBT and CL unless diplomatic solutions may be reached
