Hello everyone,
ShamTech has built a little thingy over the weekend that means you can now display a teeny flag of the world cup team of your choice by your username when you post, should you wish.

Just go to the my profile page and make your selection.

We'd like to point out that this does not mean any change in policy wrt to avatars, tickers and the like and is by no means the thin end of any wedge.

(I've chosen England for now but reserve the right to switch to Belgium as and when my choice becomes redundant Grin)

Coooooool

Supporting my sweepstake team.

Considering all the threads in regards to flag utilisers being thick racist benefit stealing scum wads, or just weirdos, is this wise?

People will be judging me on what flag I use and if I use one Shock

KateSMumsnet · 16/06/2014 09:48

p.s If the flag thingy isn't working - try logging out then back in again.

HoneyDragon · 16/06/2014 09:49

Techs very clever though

HoneyDragon · 16/06/2014 09:49

Now he can he fix the app though?

TitsCrossed · 16/06/2014 09:50

Hmmm. I think I'll wait to see which flag nobody wants and choose that one. Much like a rescue kitten.

And what HD said.

OwlCapone · 16/06/2014 09:50

Can we support Wooly hugs with a Star though?

No, it seems not.

It's the little things that make me happy!

Is it working now? Confused

TitsCrossed · 16/06/2014 09:56

Ooh, it has put the flag on my previous posts too, not just the current one.

TitsCrossed · 16/06/2014 09:57

I think we will win!

TheSpottedZebra · 16/06/2014 10:24

Eccellente. With these flag you are really spoiling us.

If you hover over the flag the country shows up. Pretty and educational. And patriotic also, for those whose country is actually in the kicking competition.

TheTerribleBaroness · 16/06/2014 10:37

Oi! This flag should be orange!
Tjonge, tjonge, tjonge!
