Color and Word Resources For Flags: A Guide
Hello! People seem to struggle sometimes with what websites to use to make terms, so, I have discovered a few websites for colors, names for flags, etc. Here are the ones I use the most!
https://genderpusteblume.tumblr.com/post/619678935663411200/masons-guide-to-the-mogai-community My old pinned post and my guide to making a flag itself! https://convertingcolors.com/ This website catalogues all paint colors for several major brands like Behr, Sherwin-Williams, and Valspar, to name a few.
https://encycolorpedia.com/ This website can let you look at any color, compare it to paint shades, and find names for different paints and ideas for names.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ This is my go-to when I am looking for a term. Using the random word feature, you can be pointed in many different directions to a term word. My most common used languages are German, French, and Latin. A lot of terms in English have large translation resources compiled in hundreds of languages (look at water on there, that’s the longest page I’ve seen!)
https://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/color-blend/#:::hex This website is a handy little website for blending colors. You simply put two HEX codes into the empty boxes (and then make sure that’s the color you want) and have as many midpoints (i.e. how many colors between these two colors you want to have. For a five-lined or toned flag, put three midpoints, two for a four-lined flag, etc.)
https://coolors.co/ A wonderful website for color palette generation.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_colors Wikipedia’s lists of colors!
https://mogaiwiki.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page MOGAI wiki (including a lot of my older terms) by @ogligenders.

For requests, here is what I will and will not do: Will do: flag requests, coin terms (gender and orientation), make pronoun flags, etc. Will not do: musicagenders that I do not know, make flags for terms that already have a fine one, etc.
