[edit] Template help

I created {{Template:Nuremberg Trial judges}} (seen to the left) and put it in all of the articles on the Nuremberg Trials judges. What I'd like to do is put a flag next to each pair of judges, indicating their nationality (a British flag for the top two, American flag for the next two, French last for the next two, and a Soviet flag for the final two). The problem is, I'm not exactly sure how I can do this. Can anyone help? [[User:Neutrality|Neutrality (talk)]] 22:31, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

I have added the flags to the template using some tables. [[User:Krik|- Norm | ]] 22:54, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Looking at this, it was momentarily unclear that the alternates were by nation. (I was reading it as two column, and analyzing the second column as lacking national designations. Would anyone be adverse to adding the flag at the right margin too? Oh, hell, I'll be bold and try it, and you be bold and tell me off if you don't like it. -- orthogonal 08:49, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Hopefully, we can get a Soviet flag that doesn't look like just a red rectangle. And is the UK flag slightly squashed vertically? But overall Neutrality, this looks really cool. -- orthogonal 08:56, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Actually, the French tricolore is the odd man out in terms of flag aspect ratio. This probably needs fixed. Actually, are the ratios correct for the current situation, or for the relevant historical period? zoney ▓█▒ talk 13:58, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

The UK flag is okay, but the soviet flag needs bolder yellow. — Ilγαηερ (Tαlκ) 21:23, 3 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Yes, I saw that with the French flag, and made it slightly smaller to compensate. As for the Soviet, making it big enough to clearly show the hammer & sickle makes it very large indeed. -- orthogonal 09:28, 5 Sep 2004 (UTC)
