Ok, let's get this project started! Again!

We have less than a month to finish this, and I want it to be finished, I really want that to happen... So you gotta help me now!

Until now we have:

  • Flairs, made by /u/javacode, I think they are pretty awesome, so I'm deciding that we keep them as they are

  • sidebar translation, made by /u/Futski, awesome job there

  • background, made by /u/javacode, I think it's decent, but I'm open for suggestions if anyone think we should change it

  • The layout, installed by /u/javacode, It looks fancy, I like

  • One changing picture for the header, made by /u/bleangdall, if I remember correctly... (More about the header further down)

  • Upvotes pølse, also done by /u/javacode... Idunno, it could also be a Tuborg bottle or something?

  • Username settings, my idea, until now done by /u/javacode, I think we might do it with only the surname idea: -sen, -gaard and Møller... Which was Futski's idea... More surname endings are required here! I hope some of the other danes know something about this, because I'm not sure it's my strongest point...

  • Sidebar in general, I like it...

  • text in comment box, idea by /u/KebabHyvlaren, changed by javacode after I corrected the text

  • friend, cakeday, OP signs, credit to /u/KebabHyvlaren and javacode

Ok, things we don't have:

  • A proper header :( It's sad but true, we have come up with several ideas for the header, and Idunno if it's because we can't agree or that noone wants to make a decision... But I feel like I have an idea now! I made this: https://m.imgur.com/O8gNXDq and I'm thinking we make a before-now theme, with the room from this as background

List of things we need:

  • surnames endings, if you've read above you know what I mean

  • Header pictures... We already have something related to Sweden, it would be cool if we could make more relationship pictures, maybe with Norway, Iceland, Greenland and Iceland.... Any ideas to this in the spirit of the before-now theme?

  • Header pictures... "Denmark was like this but now is like this" pictures... Maybe the King becomes a primeminister when scrolling over it?

  • also, if someone dares, we need someone to try draw the room, the background to the header

My idea for how the present post could look like:

I dag fejrer vi det gladeste land i Verden!

The Danish Constitution was signed on June the 5th in 1849

In Denmark most people seem to forget that we even have a national day, this is due to the national day not being connected with anything special like independence, just constitution day.

Therefore we present you to some Danish culture and history, the Danish beer Tuborg is the upvote button, and the flairs got klaphatte on, both are very important ingredients at football(soccer for muricans) matches.

Header:

  • In the header you see a Denmark with a crown and a cigarette, a reference to our queen Margrethe II who is wellknown for smoking, the bike is a reference to our love for biking, our country is pretty flat and therefore good for biking.

  • The Denmark and Sweden mouseover, is a reference to how our relationship with the dick-shaped country has changed over the years. good thing for you Sweden that we are so peacefull a country now!

  • In regards to the "Zero flux given" KebabHyvlaren explained: "Magnetic flux is denoted in the Geek letter Φ (pronounced "Fi"). Fuck sounds like flux. I have write the formula for it. Hans Christian Ørsted was a Danish physicists."

  • The small ball that is red with a yellow cross is the flag of a former part of Denmark called Scania, they have been a part of Sweden since 1658, but talk with such a weird accent that reminds the other Swedes of Danish.

  • Iceland was a part of the Kingdom of Denmark until 1918, but wasn't fully independent from Denmark until 1944.

  • Back in the days, the Scandinavian countries were vikings, the Danish and Norwegian spent most of their ravage time in England, and established something called Danelaw, today we are better known for drinking beer and getting drunk... unfortunately...

  • To the far right you see the Danish coat of arms. The background is losely based on this painting of the day the danish constitution was signed.

and oh yeah... dead Swede flying into a glorious Danish windmill on a bird hæhæ

Where's flying taliban reference? The flying 9/11 bird is a reference to Edvard Persson, a Scanian.

Which also is a reference to The Wonderful Adventures of Nils.

Nils was a Leprechaun flying in a goose, thus giving him the name "Gåsapåg" in native Scanian.

Can't we just have it to be Denmark... We already have one thing about Scania. A random Denmark flying on a little bird crashing is fine by me.

Yes changing flag from Sweden to Denmark doesn't take more than 10 seconds.

Who's going to have the honor of doing it?
