Happy birthday Gilbert Baker!

Born on 2 June 1951, in Chanute, Kansas, Gilbert Baker was instrumental in the creation of the rainbow flag, now an internationally recognised symbol of the queer community.

In 1978, openly-gay politician Harvey Milk asked Gilbert to design a symbol for that year's pride celebrations in San Francisco. Gilbert chose the rainbow as a symbol that was beautiful, diverse, and natural.

Gilbert, along with other artists and volunteers, created the first rainbow flags by hand, dyeing the fabric in huge rubbish bins, and then rinsing it out late at night at a local laundromat.

The rainbow flag was first flown as a symbol of the queer community at San Francisco Pride on 25 June 1978.

I was bored so I combined the progressive pride flag with the Gilbert Bakers 9 stripe flag as they are my two favorite flags.

[image description: An edit of the progressive pride flag and Gilbert Bakers 9 striped flag. the nine stripes in order are lavender, pink, red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, indigo, and purple. then the triangle section from the progressive pride is edited on top of it with white, pink, blue, brown, and black stripes in the shape of a triangle. end id.]

So I literally woke up and came downstairs to make this set of patches. @urbanprole is in the middle of like 3 other projects so these will get test-stitched and photographed when she has a hot minute, but like.

They're about 3" x 3" so you can stack up flags on your arm, backpack, w/e.

(The colors look a little wonky bc it's just a mockup for the embroidery machine, and the way it displays colors has only a passing resemblance to how those colors will look stitched out.)

Some stickers I've seen out and about in Aberystwyth recently! Good to see some trans flags out in the wild. Seen a few near big Tescos as well but didn't grab a picture last time I saw them.

Posted off the rest of last week's print orders yesterday, with my first sale to Canada! I will be unable to post prints off between the 21st and 29th of October due to being away from my flat during that time, so if you need a print to arrive before then please order soon so I can post that off for you! You'll still be able to place an order when I am away, but I will only be able to post things off on the 30th at the earliest.

I have re-ordered my most popular prints - the bilingual Welsh/English Gilbert Baker print and the bilingual Welsh/English LGBT+ flag and terminology print. They should be available this Friday if you want to grab one! I also have misprints available at a discount as well. You can grab any of these prints in the link in my bio.

Happy birthday to Gilbert Baker, one of the designers behind the rainbow flag! Gilbert was born on 2 June, 1951, and created the flag along with fellow artist Lynn Segerblom and others in 1978. It was flown at San Francisco Pride in June that year.

I cant find any that/thats pronouns blinkies, so!! Could you make some that/thats pronouns blinkies? Preferably at least one with the aromantic spectrum flag and the genderless flag, but also with other ones like trans/bi/lesbian/etc. so that any other that/thats pronoun users can have some too!!

[ID: 15 blinkies of different pride flags, all reading "that/thats" in pixel lettering. In order, the flags are rainbow, lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, nonbinary, pansexual, asexual, aromantic, acespec, arospec, aroace, agender, genderless, and genderfluid. /end ID]

Day 30: Original Pride Flag (Gilbert Baker) Bluntnose Sixgill Shark

ID in alt Click for higher quality

I chose to pair this flag with this shark because the bluntnose sixgill shark belongs to the oldest-known shark lineages. The original pride flag -created by Gilbert Baker in 1978 and commissioned by gay activist Harvey Milk- had 8 stripes (pink, red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, indigo, and violet) instead of 6 (pink was removed for fabric shortages, and turquoise to make an even number). Although the 6-stripe version is the most popular and mainstream, I love this version the most, and like the shark, it is the oldest of it's kind.

🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜

THIS IS IT!!! Thank you all so much for the kind comments and support (especially on discord)! I loved doing this last year and loved it again this year, although I certainly had a lot more fun. Thank you to the goobers (you know who you are) for providing me with sharks (and for making me do this in the first place). Thanks to anyone who gave shark or flag requests! I hope you saw yourself in at least one of these ❤️

9 stripe Gilbert Baker flag color picked from the original art piece.

the colors are so so beautiful in the original art piece and the digital versions don't do it justice so i created one that will.

"Do you think there's still a future for gay liberation, or has its day passed?" "There's always a future if you're willing to fight for it. We've forgot- ten how to mobilize. All our leaders suck up to political systems. They traded away a natural homosexual militancy for a facade of acceptance."

from "Rainbow Warrior: My Life in Color" by Gilbert Baker, creator of the rainbow flag.
