I think an image of Kokopelli would serve adequate.

I'm not sure if it's been done before, but I thought we should have a flag design in case the man tries to take our ecigs away!

What do you think?

imgur: the simple image sharer

I like your image and I think that particular logo would work better on a t-shirt or a bumper sticker than a flag. In my mind, a flag should embody a meme that is neither inflammatory nor confrontational yet expresses solidarity. I also like the pumping fist of .................. (reminiscent of the symbology used in the palestinian fight for freedom), but even that would be IMO too potentially incendiary for a flag. You are right though. The community needs a simple, effective visual that it can agree on.

An example of what works might be the only really pervasive (and therefore successful) recent flag I can think of off the top of my head -- the Gay Pride Rainbow flag. Everybody knows what that means. It doesn't have any provocative content, visual or otherwise... it hardly has content at all. Yet it expresses a simple, positive sentiment. Maybe we should think along those lines for a pro-vaping visual.

I like this one a lot. But it's already famous for spiritual awareness. But... What if he were bent the opposite way with the pipe reaching for the clouds.
The OP has an interesting and like able idea, but I'm not too impressed with the graphic, it resembles war toys and darkness of evil. Sorry, OP, but first impressions count.
Keep them coming!
