Lately I have seen a lot of people like myself trying to pick up some flags, for their flag counters in their profiles. I thought this would be a good way to do so and to also meet some new friends from around the world, to share some flags and good times with.
Feel free to join in and let's start sharing those flags. 
**EDIT**
Recently I have been contacted asking me exactly what a flag counter is, so I decided to edit this post to explain just that. My apologies to those who were unaware of what a flag counter was. I should of added this description when I first made this thread.
WHAT IS A FLAG COUNTER?
A flag counter is a free script, that you can add into your profile, so that when someone visits your profile. Their country's flag will be added to your flag counter, to show that your profile had been visited, from someone from that country.
It's fun and interesting to see how many people from different countrys have visited your profile.
WHERE CAN I GET A FLAG COUNTER FOR MY PROFILE?
Just click on the flag counter below, to be redirected to the flag counter site. Once there, click the button that says "get your own FREE flag counter!", to start setting up your own.
Many thanks to our good friend:

OK, one time Randy Beaman had to take baths with his brother. So one time his little brother took a potty in the bathtub .....and now Randy Beaman gets to take showers alone. 'K, bye.
One time, OK, see, one time Randy Beaman's little brother ate Pop Rocks and drank a soda at the same time and his head exploded! 'K, bye.

You can goto my profile and click on my flag counter. It will then take you to a webpage to set up your own. You then cut and paste the script into your profile here on bgg. Then everytime some visits your profile. their flag will be added to it. I hope that helps some. Let me know if you need any help.

Tip. Note the two differences here. One shows state flags and the other national ones--all from the same single configuration (x99 in this case).
Obviously, the url can't be broken up with spaces.
Also, the state counters don't start calculating until you include the link. It's not retroactive.
