    Decided to have a go myself:
    The transgender flag with a black triangle taking up the other half of the diagonal and a circled A in the middle of the black.

    Or a vertical one:
    Vertical transgender flag with a black triangle containing a circled A at the top part pointing down.

    And a NB one:
    The nonbinary flag with a Square containing the circled A rising from middle of the last stripe.

    Ok. I think I’m done.

    I’m curious, if you put the trans lines in the diagonal between the red/black. would it look neater?

    like you flag, just wondering

    What if:

    Keep kitty black, background red… but…

    Make the circle for the kitty have the trans color pattern, as a ribbon, circular.

    Or, maybe do that with the kitty itself, give it an edge/border type thing that’s the trans colors?

    Subsequent to that: that last idea won’t work well because the cat is simply too detailed, complex.

    So… maybe make a simplified, vector version of angry kitty?

    Maybe stylize it a bit?

    Also, we have all the various ‘A in circle’ designs from… all of history, and probably your nearest grafitti’d wall, that could be used as another element, in whatever color/pattern, to balance the kitty.

    You’ve also got simply a 5 pointed star, usually red, ala the Zapatistas.

    Or, go visit Mahkno and his merry band of absolutely pristine gentlemen, and you’ll maybe notice a skull and cross bones, and the slogan ‘Death to all who stand in the way of freedom for the working people!’

    You also possibly have the color patterning from Makhno, the CNT FAI, Zapatistas,.etc.


    Zapatista Flag:

    Makhno:

    [solid black]

    apparently a modern slava ukrainia take on the mahkno flag:

    CNT FAI:

    (whoo boy if that ain’t the most 1930s font I’ve ever seen)

    Regional Defense Council of Aragon:

    (try and tell me that at least the purple, if not other style elements here, don’t work with trying to fuse Anarchy and Trans Rights)


    Out of historical flags, onto some other concepts, such as…

    ‘How to make a Libertarian immediately fear for their life and stand their ground’:

    ‘AnarchoKitties’:

    ‘This one apparently triggered Stormfront so hard they have a thread whining about an Anarchist using this one’:

    Interesting crest/circular encapsulation concepts:

    (maybe make the roses on the right red, keep up the vertical symmetry coloring?)

    And finally… apparently the emblem of the ‘Trans Anarcho Cat Girls’:


    PS: Don’t forget that flag dimensions and actual shapes of the actual flag itself are mere suggestions, not actual rules.

        love the colours, bit the cat’s details get lost due to the lack of contrast in pastel colours. not sure how to solve it besides making a more stylised and simplified cat.

        You could also leave the black black, as you now have all three trans colors in the design.

        Half pastel, half high contrast, maybe throw in the circled A of some kind to give a highlight to the black, balance the whole thing?

        Or, you can as I elsewhere suggested, make the circle of the kitty be a trans colors ribbon, keeping it in black, or do the reverse, pastel kitty, red and black circle… lots of possibilities.
