1. Hello dear admins,
2.  
3. We are writing this message to express our displeasure with the way the Portuguese Flag is being portrayed in the background of the webpage.
4.  
5. The length of the flag is 11/2 of its width, which translates to a 2:3 ratio. The bottom is vertically divided into two colors: dark green on the side of the stem, and scarlet red of the fly. The colors are divided in such a way as to cover green in 2/5 of the length, the remaining 3/5 being filled in red (ratio 2-3). The coat of arms (without the laurel wreath), (the Portuguese shield on top of an armillary sphere in yellow and revived in black), is positioned on the border between both colors.

7. That being said, we kindly request to correct the use of the Portuguese flag.

9. This should not happen:
10.  
11. http://prntscr.com/sx7qmq - too much red;
12. http://prntscr.com/ulqfdk - too much red and the shield is being displayed upside down.
13.  
14. The correct use should be like this:
15.  
16. http://prntscr.com/ulqhvp - horizontal use
17. http://prntscr.com/ulqmvp - vertical use

19. Thank you for your attention and we hope you can correct this as soon as possible.
