you look at them in whole. All the delicate arch imagery in Utah is orange. Just look at all those pictures and the color in the pictures is closer to the flag color than any red color would be.

There are several of the semifinalists for Utah's state flag redesign that I really like.

Why are doing a new state flag? I like the current one.

I think people just realize that a state seal slapped on a dark blue background is not attractive and uninspiring.

It's lame and generic. Blue with a generic state seal is what like two dozen

Beehive or Delicate Arch with the star.

There were several beehive designs but that one is the simplest and my favorite of them.

UT does need a new flag but I don't get the orange & light blue.

I don't get what the orange stands for.

I'm curious. Why is a single star so prominent on many of them?

I wondered that, too.

Represents the 8 native tribes of Utah.

I wonder when the cutoff point is for being “native”

I imagine it's the tribes that predated the pioneers.

Why? Why do govts waste money on things like this? Should we have a redesign

No idea how much this is costing but I hope it's not a lot.

Money better spent than the highest state salary - a football coach
