    An effort to compromise...

    After growing very tired of hearing the constant complaining from my wife about my "evil" flag, I have tried to display it in a way that is not so "in your face". What do you guys think? The first shot is a before, the second one is after the modification.

    (Sorry for the lousy quality. This is an old file photo taken with a 1.2 mp cam.)





    Before....

      Oh, very nice presentation! Forget the in your face - it is more aestetically pleasing the way it is wrapped with the cases underneath. Well done!

          I read this post and then saw the flag - I thought this was the 'after' shot! It does look better in the 2nd pic - 'less is more'.

          My wife won't let me have a portrait of the Fuhrer in my bunker but tolerates everything else so I can't complain too much - I haven't tried an evil flag yet!

            Hi John,
            This has been an on-going battle with us, and I actually took it down completely at one time out of frustration, but she hates history, so she will never be able to understand my interest. About the AH pictures, I am fighting a battle on that front too, although I have never displayed my three privately taken photos in a prominate position. BTW, you haven't lived until you hang an evil flag in your home. Hanging one is a sure fire way to liven things up-give it a whirl, and enjoy the ride!!

                  I really like the "after" shot as well...very tasteful and artistic.
                  Gee, the wife said she wanted to get red swags and drapes for the living room. I wonder...


                  ...Nah! I wouldn't get past the first sentence!

                    Thank you Paul. Give the TR drapes a try . I love to irritate my wife. Upon her return from work one day, she was very tired, and decided to take a nap. After she fell asleep, I covered her up with my own blanket- Third Reich style. About an hour later-it happened- "Get this piece of crap off of of me right now!!!!" I laughed so hard, I couldn't breathe. I was only trying to keep her warm with my 9x15 ft. TR battle flag.. ..

I think it looks alot better I'm the other way round, my fiance wonld never let me do that, or even have my own little room for display, then again since he has no idea what about anything WW2 related I could get away with saying "it's a new design from ikea honey!!!!"
