Full annual standings and past winners

Congrats to /u/HistoricalTrip5247 on their 1st win! They will receive a custom flair of the winning flag and it will be forever enshrined within our Hall of Fame. They'll also get a custom flag from our new contest sponsors over at Flagmaker & Print!

[u/Miguk4Real]

Congrats to u/HistoricalTrip5247 for the win! I really enjoyed your flag! In looking at the annual top 20 designers, I noticed that all of the top 6 designers have won at least one monthly contest, except me, lol. I came close a while back, placing #2. Perhaps one day, I'll catch lightning in a bottle and win one of these monthly contests. Until then, I will continue to be grateful to be listed among such great designers such as you and be inspired by the high quality of flags that you and others produce.

Well done!
