The Flag

League of Arab States - green flag with the emblem of the League - in white wreath a chain makes a circle in it a crescent pointing up an a text in Arab letters. The gif here is an adaptation of the image published by Ed Haynes on his Flags of Arab World (http://192.203.180.62/flags/arabflgs). I have seen the chain made both red and yellow, and the text also white or black.
To get the chain right, it would take some more work, that I am reluctant to do now. BTW, is there any importance in the number of the chain elements?
