Photobucket removed free image hosting. It is best to use imgur.

This one is for the Golden Empire

The eight stars represent the queens of the Golden Empire.
The golden bar represents yellow crazy ants.
The white bar represents the peaceful coexistence between other animals.
The red bar represents the struggle of the colony, similar to the worker class struggle of many socialist flags.
Image
This is a variation flag. On this flag the gold on gold is removed as well as the white, to make the stars more visible.
Image
Some extras: the flags for the aphids and the springtails.
Image
Image

The next submissions are for the Northern Dark Knights and the Southern Dark Knights.

Basically the only thing that makes the Northern Dark Knights unique is that they are fed with red honey. So the red hexagon represents the red honey.
Image
The Southern flag is inspired by the work of El Lissitsky, a Russian artist. The flag represents victory over the Northern Dark Knights.
Image

The next one is for the Titans and it represents the size difference between the ants of the colony.
Image

I used the five rules of flag design from Good Flag Bad Flag. They are pretty neat rules.

Software used: Adobe Illustrator CS4

Copyright is not a thing for these flags, feel free to use it for anything you want and feel free to edit. I would say it is like Creative Commons, but I'm not sure I can use that since I used Imgur to upload it.

Tom Kaye gives five very useful tips for designing flags in his book Good Flag, Bad Flag.

Thanks for posting this! Calligraphy seems to be the exception to the writing one. :)
