This user is able to contribute with a good level on vector graphics.

Hello Wikimedia! I am autistic intersex queer with a special interest in flags. I draw SVG flags and gender symbols using the drawsvg library of Python, and will accept requests to convert flags from png/jpg to svg.

Sometimes when I post flags/infogarphics to this website I'll put up a little appendix about methodology.

User:Intervex/PrideColours: Infographics about what LGBTQIA+ pride flags mean with the data tables & info on methods.
User:Intervex/DisabledIntersex: I ran a survey on how disability & intersex flags should be combined for different ways that intersex and disability intersect. Data tables & info on matching flags to meanings.

To Do

Sensory friendly versions of intersex flags
Perisex trans flag(s)? Wolffian/Mullerian flags?
Category:Flag images that should use vector graphics
Category:Symbol images that should use vector graphics
Add symbols to Astronomy, astrology and gender symbols as I see them
Archive more intersex flags
Archive more disability flags
Get up some more infinity *loops* for making autistic flags with. Also maybe some interlocking hexagons in the style of ASAN?
Categorize LGBTQ and Disability flags by colour

Tumblr archiving

For each of these tumblrs, go through flags of interest, check if the flag is actually in use, and then make SVG version.

Go through https://pride-color-schemes.tumblr.com/tagged/intersex and upload flags that I can find evidence for further use of, since their FAQ says their flags are public domain <3

Autistic Pride Flags

I have been hyperfixating on-and-off about autistic pride flags. I'm bothered that so many of them use a solid white lemniscate, a symbol of the Métis. And as an intersex person I'm wary about flag designs that use a solid gold background, since that's a theme of intersex flags.

The metis infinity issue feels extra frustrating because there are so many ways to style an infinity symbol. I've hence been on a little quest to explore different ways of making infinity symbols. I've carved out User:Intervex/Infinity as a place for me to save different kinds of infinity symbols.

Inclusive options for autistic/ND flags

Autistic pride flags that are visually distinct

Flags that won't get mistaken for other groups (Metis, intersex) nor would obvious derivatives of their flags fall into the category.

Gold infinity *loop*, variable thickness, on white. 2024?
Gold infinity *loop*, variable thickness, on Magill disability pride inspired background. 2024 (one of my designs).
Rainbow nautilus on a Macgill-inspired background. 2024 (one of my designs).
Magill disability pride layout. Spells autistic with chemical symbols: gold (Au), titanium (Ti), sulphur (S), titanium (Ti), carbon (C). 2024 (one of my designs).
Red infinity loop, variable thickness, on the same gold with red and greed stripes. 2024 variant of 2021 design.
Rainbow infinity loop, constant thickness, on gold with red and green stripes. 2024 variant on 2021/2016 design.
Red open infinity loop on stripes. 2023 variant of a 2019 design.
Yellow/gold infinity symbol on diagonal green-red-purple. 2021 design.
Black lemniscate on rainbow stripes. 2022 design.

ND flags that don't use lemniscates

Neurodiversity flags that, if they use an infinity symbol, use a loop rather than a solid lemniscate curve. Using only infinity loops for neurodivergence helps to differentiate from the Metis flag.
