The colours
What the flag of Seychelles is made of
Counted off the file rather than read out of it. Every pixel of a 320-pixel rendering is sorted into a colour, so the share below is the share of the flag a person actually sees, and an emblem’s interior shades do not outrank a band covering a third of the field.
- #002f6c16.8% of the field
- #fed14116.5% of the field
- #d2273033.5% of the field
- #007a3316.7% of the field
- #ffffff16.4% of the field
These are the colours the plates for Seychelles are drawn in. Nothing on this site takes a country’s colours from anywhere but its own flag.
