Summary

Description	Version of the emblem of 1976 United States bicentennial celebrations. This image was generated from abstract geometry, and so may not be completely faithful to the proportions of the original design, and also does not attempt to use flag colors (instead using brightest pure red and blue). See File:American revolution bicentennial.svg for a full version with enclosing text. For a monochrome version (the red and blue in this image the same color), see File:United States Bicentennial star 1976 (monochrome).svg .

	00:55, 2 November 2011	644 × 628 (4 KB)	Fry1989	Are you just bitter or what? These are the official colours of the United States Bicentential star. I may not be able to do code like you, but that's not reason to keep it wrong.
