	Additionally, you seem to have duplicated a number of the flags I uploaded under different names, rather than simply uploading new versions. We should fix this situation.

	::Upon reviewing certain sceens in [[Colonial Day]] earlier and checking the flags shown on the [[Twelve Colonies]] page I noticed several discrepancies betwen what appeared on the screen and what appears on this Wiki. Primarily Virgon's flag which is shown with an orange symbol with a white centre on a yellow background with green and orage stripes. I also noticed that Canceron's flag shown in close ups had two green stripes along side it. "Libra"'s flag also had two grey stripes on the outside of its two red stripes. I did not change the order of the flags on the Colonies page, they were like that when I found them I simply updated them. By process of elimination I deduced that the one unused flag not listed on the Colonies page had to the Aquaria's flag. The multiple files were a procedural error of mine and I appologize. I am terribly sorry if I am in error on any of these updates, I was simply trying to relay what I thought were carefully analyzed and edited representations of the Colonial Flags. Feel free to revert any changes that I have made to the Colonial page and the images that I updated. I appologize.

	:::Don't apologize, I appreciate your contribution and comittment to accuracy with respect to flag coloring. I'll work on getting the images moved over to the right places, just for consistancy's sake, but don't worry yourself. There is one thing I'd like to point out, which you should consider for the future - many of the flag assignments on the Twelve Colonies page are tentative, so process of elimination is not a good means to determine unknowns. I know it seems odd to say that the wiki itself is not a trustworthy source, but remember that anyone can edit it.
