Description
(Edited name to "Pride Diamond")A small, self-directed project: Design a new, more inclusive PRIDE flag type icon.
Looking over all of the various Pride flags, I decided to expand my grid from 11 to 12 color units, which allowed me to group and combine in a slightly more balanced form and include representation from nearly every flag. Wanting to keep the arrow motif, I also decided to add the original pink colors that were the very start of the gay/queer movements. With these (I think) final iterations, here's my concept: the left hand two pink arrow elements point back, reminding us to know the history, and all the other colors point forward, reminding us to move forward in knowing where we need to go and what the future can be.
Feel free to share with credit. Thanks.

I love that I can spot the colors for the asexual pride flag as well as the aromantic pride flag (thanks to the light green, although the aro colors aren't quite near one another the colors are still present, I think.)

I worked to include as many of the core colors of the LGBTQ, the trans, the asexual and a few other flags as possible, knowing that I wouldn't be absolutely able to include every one. To include every option would just make it a color soup, so I worked to make a few cuts to make everything at least hint at all the various combinations. Thanks for the feedback, appreciated!

You did a great job. I'm not sure if you intended to include the colors of the aromantic flag but they are, indeed, there, which is awesome. I know many aromantic asexuals who often feel left out because so few people know aromanticism is a thing.
Thank you for making this diamond. <3

I did take that into consideration, and while it's nearly impossible to cover ALL the options, I'm glad you feel this in more inclusive than other symbols you've seen. : )
