Basically it follows what has been done for other countries: India (http://members.lycos.co.uk/zmira/doodleoftheday/index.php?logo=390), Brazil (http://members.lycos.co.uk/zmira/doodleoftheday/index.php?logo=387), ...

i'd like a breaking wall or the "oo" in shape of the two countries moving together better. the reunification just isn't connected with the german colours/flag, in my mind...

(but hey, David Hasselhoff is still thinking he crushed the wall by performing "Looking for Freedom" in Berlin..)

But the flag is looking cool. A breaking wall would be really cool. Maybe at the 25th anniversary? ;-)

:-/ I guess it's an rebuild wall then.... ;) don't hope so...

the flag is too patriotic for me, sorry.

I'd like a big West Germany swallowing up the small and defenceless; defenseless East Germany ;-)

[put at-character here] Jose, Yes but the Indian Flag nicely substituted the second O with the Dharma Chakra or Ashoka Chakra (Wheel of Justice or Wheel of Ashoka).

But the concept is similar.

[put at-character here] Philipp, a web forgery warning "alerts you if a web page that you visit appears to be asking for your personal or financial information under false pretences". In no case I ask the users to enter any personal (or other) information under false pretences.
The only place where your name and e-mail are asked for is in the e-mail sending form, and that info is never used for anything else other than that.
