A simple image widget utilizing the new WordPress media manager.

== Description ==

A Widget that can be included into sidebar to display flags depending on the category slug

Displays appropriate national flag for the african country based upon the '<category slug>.jpg' found in the child theme directory 
using get_stylesheet_directory_uri() 

== Installation ==

Installation is just like installing most other plugins. [Check out the codex] (http://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Installing_Plugins) if you have any questions.

Create a 'flags' directory in your theme (or child theme if you are using a child theme) and upload a bunch of jpg files one per category slug named using the categoryslug.gif format

<plugin_dir>/flags contains a set of african flags ready to use that can be copied to your <theme_dir>/flags for use

I have kept this flags directory separate so you can easily replace the flags. For example, if you want american state flags, <themedir>/flags and upload your state flags to that location.
