Font-awesome: Icon request: fa-flag-[country name]

Created on 23 Sep 2014  路  11Comments  路  Source: FortAwesome/Font-Awesome

Please create a set of flags that can be used as a way to show users what site they are on.

Ex: a user on example.ca might see a flag of fa-flag-ca, where as a user on example.com would see fa-flag-us which can be used to indicate country specific sites where a user clicks a flag, and they are redirected to a country specific site.

I have found two icon sets, all they would need is the css.

Has the stance on this changed now that font-awesome has an SVG implementation?

Country flags are not possible to achieve with icon fonts, because a lot of flags only differ by colors and icon fonts are monochromatic鹿. You should consider svg

If you want to request a USA flag, please +1 #1336

refers to #2481

Closing here


鹿 Or, at least, support for multicolor fonts is very limited

@tagliala it is possible to do. You could very easily fork https://github.com/tkrotoff/famfamfam_flags, and include the css in FontAwesome so then we don't have to use a separate icon set. It would be very helpful for developers.

@xaoseric famfamfam uses png, fontawesome doesn't

I need this, too :smile_cat:

@tobegit3hub sorry but these icons can't be implemented

@tagliala That's fine. I can download what I want because I don't need them all. Thanks for replying.

Hey guys, fontawesome doesn't use png files for show icons. I think using image file is bad think. Please close this issue...

@erayaydin this issue is closed :+1:

Oh so sorry :smile: How can I miss that, I see Open text on #4895 issue and I think this issue not closed. So sorry :smiley:

Thank you again for this lovely awesome repo :+1:

Please consider svg based solutions, like http://lipis.github.io/flag-icon-css/
