The flags were designed by an anonymous user, with HD versions and image descriptions made by pride-color-schemes. The anonymous said of their flag: “I chose yellow and green because those are colors i associate with nonbinaryness. Grey feels like a very wide color to me that also signifies a “lack of breath” (breathtaking) so I chose that as well. the cutoff circle motifs are there because they go beyond the confines of the flag itself and the lighter grey represents a sort of “aura” to go with the “commanding & powerful” parts of the definition”, and for the second flag the colors simply aesthetically representing visualizations of the aether."[2]
