current	07:10, 7 February 2023	1,200 × 600 (2 KB)	MapGrid	Sync with File:Flag of Belarus (construction sheet).svg. Set width of the thin red stripe to 1/21 the width of the ornament. Fixed bleed between green and white. Reduced the amount of cloning because it was causing artifacts near the centerline where edges are double painted (open in Gimp to see it). Changed nominal dimensions to 1200 × 600.
