Extreme Makeover: Gay Flag
June is gay pride month, and rainbow flags will be flying high at pride celebrations around the country. The flag was designed by Gilbert Baker in 1978 and is recognized around the world. But what would a pride flag look like if it were designed in 2009?
The design firm Worldstudio is taking on the challenge to re-imagine a new flag for the 21st century. But we also want your ideas! Add your comments and your designs to our Flickr pool. On our June 26th show, we’ll reveal Worldstudio’s design, along with our favorite listener submissions.
