The is name of lake where Arvika is situated is Glafsfjorden. > 1. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/A.gif > This image is an incorrect version of the British flag, also > called the Union Jack or Union Flag. What is wrong with it? The diagonal stripes are definitely wrong. They should be about double the width. > Clearly identify *any one* of the changes you would have to > make if you wanted to "correct" this image into a correct flag > of either country -- but *you must say which country*. Get rid of the big star to the left and make all stars in the Southern Cross to be the same size to get the flag of New Zealan. > Don't worry about the Arabic writing; that part is correct > (for its translation see Round 4 of this game, answer 1). > What isn't? Sword and writing should be in black. > 4. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/D.gif > How does this image differ from a correct flag of Israel? Double stripes instead of single. > 5. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/E.gif > How does this image differ from a correct flag of Nepal? It's rectangular. Which the flag is not. > 6. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/F.gif > This image differs from a correct Canadian flag in two ways. > Name *both* errors. Wrong width of the red fields. Very "modern" design of the maple leaf. > 7. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/G.gif > How does this image differ from a correct flag of Sweden? This one has an extra blue strip in the middle should should be there. > 8. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/H.gif > How does this image differ from a correct flag of India? Strips are vertical, should be horizontal. > The flag of Greece was changed """some years ago""" so that at > least one color is darker than you may remember it. Nothing else > was changed. How does this image differ from the Greek flag? No red stripes - they are blue. > 10. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/J.gif White and red strips are inverted. > 11. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/K.gif Cuba - same error as US flag. > 12. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/L.gif Zimbabwe? > 13. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/M.gif Bosnia-Hercogovina's flag upside down. > 14. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/N.gif Whichever flag it is, I don't think the dollar sign belongs there. :-) > 15. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/O.gif Looks like Greenland. But I think the circle is centred on that one. > 16. http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/msb/oo9/7/P.gif EU flag with colours inverted. |
