Hi,
I am looking for someone who can help me to make nice round flags as I am not a graphic specialist.
At the moment I have the round flags (europe.xcf) and I would like to have as a result the flags that look like this.

Thank you very much for your help.

Gradient tool, shape "radial"
layer modes

Screenshot below and .xcf above, should be self explanatory, increase contrast for a sharper effect, check out the compressed .xcf for the different layer modes (Layer with the mask is in "Darken only" mode)

Here is another version, very similar to above

Adjust the 'fake-bevel' layer opacity to suit.

It can be easily achieved through Inkscape as well

Another similar but slightly different approach.

I thank everyone for your help. I have saved a lot of time thanks to your examples !!!

I forgot to post the XCF-file. Here it is.
