But I like the design. It's like a flag (Stars and Bars, or Union Jack), but, with...reversals. The patterns actually isn't very easy to make sense of--I mean this as a good thing--I looked at it for a long time trying to determine the 'rules' of which color to use.

I can imagine it being very symbolic for... well I don't want to put words in your mouth. What does it mean to you?
