Warning: This image will not scale to 22px or smaller; it simply appears as a blank space (tested in Safari/MacOSX and Firefox/WinXP). For flag icon usage, scale it to 23px.

Seems to be working fine now; cf. w:Wikipedia:WikiProject_Heraldry_and_vexillology/World_Flags#United_States_Of_America --Himasaram 10:48, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
