In the June 9 issue, Isthmus declared that Wisconsin deserves a better flag. Not everyone was on board, but we had a robust response to our call for readers to submit designs for a new state flag.

Many took the assignment seriously. Others made it political. Some just had fun with it.

Whatever the motivation, flag designs submitted by readers are on display here. They’ll also be hand delivered to Gov. Scott Walker and legislative leaders at the Capitol.

Maybe one day one of these designs will be flying high around the state.
