What do you think which country has the most beautiful flag in the present World?
Vote for any flag you want but don't vote for the flag of your country or any country that doesn’t exist today.

Personally I like the British Flag (I'm from Kosovo)
 
I like the British Queens/Kings Colours. That's the old British flag without the diagonal red lines, but it's still in use. The current national incarnation is less easy on the eyes, but similar.

One flag I actually don't like is USA because it reminds me of smelly old pirate trousers (made of striped materials) ... perhaps those trousers were made from old flags, because stripes were extremely common among European navies.

The Canadian flag is bold, unique, and pleasant... but the Australian flag has all of those qualities and the familiar British corner too.

Thus, I say the Australian flag is my favourite of current flags.
 
(nearly) All flags of the world

I like the symbolism in the flag of Nauru:

The country is 1 degree south of the equator and mimmiced in their flag.
 
I think we've already don't some thing like that. If I recall correctly, here are some of those I like the most :

I'm quite fond of the US flag, British flag, Mongolian flag, and Kenyan flag.:)
 
Rik, I've seen your website and I think I have better websites about flags :

flags.net : Flags are extremely accurate and beautiful on this website.
3dflags.com : The best site for animated waving flag.
Flags of the World : Flags aren't well-pictured in here, but it's the most complete collection of flags over the internet. You can find description and history of thousands of flags over there.
 
Here are other flags mentioned by people in here :

South Africa's flag is by far the best flag design ever. I don't see how you couldn't love it.

Flags that suck-(in the order in which I thought of them)
U.S
UK
Australia(for having the UK flag)
Greece
Italy(and most tri-color flags, they're just boring)

If anybody remembers that site which rates flags, I'd like the link. It has pitures of all the flags without having to click links constantly.
 
I'm also fond of:

Taiwan

Andorra, Nepal (an intresting on), Great Britain, and France.
 
I can't say I agree with Syterion about South Africa. I think the post-apartheid South African flag is one of the ugliest out there.

Here are some of my favorites:

Solomon Islands:
