'Blue Sheet With Seal' State flags, in general

[kphoger]

When someone decides to use more than 3 colors, it should be a conscious decision made with intent, and they should try to closely adhere to the rest of the Principles--unless there is a good reason to stray from another one.

Nah.

TIIRC, that 'flag' was a battle banner that was only used by one unit in an obscure battle.

Still a traitor flag.

Still not the point.  My point (if it were the flag I had referred to, which it isn't, because it isn't the Stars and Bars) was that it's a non-state flag that armies marched under.

Unfortunately, a lot of time, some flags that have good designs are symbolic for very bad things. I'm not advocating the use of them because of what they have come to represent but the Gadsden, "Stars and Bars", and the German Reich flags were quite distinctive yet simple. Just saying.
