Looks like they sort of combined #13 and #14. The picture in the P and C is the correct version, hopefully. On a comical and slightly darker note, when the sea levels rise to Columbia, we may see a dolphin on the flag too. An anamorphic type flag. This design may be more genius than we thought!

Wishful thinking. Cute.

Here’s the final designs from which they chose from:

Should've picked the first one.

I agree totally.


Anyone else think the new CAE logo and the new Columbia flag came about at the same time on purpose? They both sort of sport similar colors.

Does this mean they are going to be like Chicago now and slap it on everything to include the police uniforms?

They stole the design from the Partridge Family intro.

Why do I feel they only did this because they knew they’d lose in court, not because they actually had a moment of moral self discovery and actually changed their minds?

Maybe they should announce bottom floor commercial tenants including a tattoo shop. That’d really **** them off.


But to be honest, I have no idea what they’re thinking. Y’alls guess is as good as mine.
