They did this challenge in Cambodia. The losing flag's image link was broken, but here's what the winning flag looked like: If I recall correctly it was pretty obvious that this flag would win over the other one, since I think the other one was made entirely in Paint and this one was meticulously crafted by Photoshop Genius KJ. So, I say all that to say if anyone has expertise in Photoshop or some other picture-fancying program, that could be a huge edge.

Thanks for starting the thread Tucker <3. I was wondering, what are you guys thinking about the color? I was thinking purple because of the meaning it has: "Purple is the color of good judgment. It is the color of people seeking spiritual fulfillment. It is said if you surround yourself with purple you will have peace of mind. Purple is a good color to use in meditation. " It sounds very heroic to me, I mean I am kind of influenced by the fact it's my favorite color, but I think it would really fit. Unless we can use "rainbow" as a color if anything because of the thread Erik made where he posted unicorns and rainbows, it might be funny AND pretty. Also, if we could get the font they use for the HERO'S sign on the TV show that might be really cool to add as well, but I have no idea how the font thing works at all.
Just a couple of thoughts <3.

Using the logo from Heroes the tv show seemed to go over pretty well in the Heroes FTW thread, could be a good starting point

I agree, definitely need the HEROES font with that eclipse for the "O." What do you guys think of sticking Donna's face or something inside the "O"? It might be a bit much, but it could definitely win points with the alumni who always love a good Donna reference. Haha.

I think it might be too much, maybe we could add her picture as some type of honorary hero? I think if we do use the logo we should keep it the same since it's pretty iconic as it is. Some people might be bothered by the O becoming Donna, no matter how much we all love her. I do think a Donna reference might be great though, maybe use one of her quotes as a some type of slogan. Sort of like when at the beggining of a book they have a quote by an important person. That could be cute.

I like the purple idea...its also the royals(kings and queens) used in everything way back in the day. its pretty much impossible to find any tasmanian launguage words but we could add instead just some aboriginal words from australia...maybe Kooruna-Rain, Karla or koneega-Fire, Karong-Sun, Kalalta-Torch, koomarrie-blood, kowara-water. We could use koneega( Fire), kalalta (Torch) and kowara (Water) as they are the things you need to survive in survivor or in the case of the torch shows you are still in the game.

I've got the Survivor fonts on my hard drive (Survivant, Day24) so if we want to implement them in some way or if you guys have them they might be worth putting on?

Also, a nod to the past seasons in the background would be a nice touch.

I have I have a free trial version of photoshop elements but have no idea how to use it. If anyone is good with that stuff you can get the free trial from adobe website. elements does 99 percent of what photoshop does

I've sent this around to those who've been online on AIM, imagine the text is a darker tone of purple. I'll try to redesign it later let me know what you think (it matches the pixel requirements as well)

according to some message board i found, the font used for the Heroes title is ITC Avant Garde LT Condensed Medium (?). we can use that and paste in a picture of the eclipse and then we'll be able to make it whatever color we need
