CONLANG FLAG IDEAS:

Yeah, that's good. And I'd like to add that I just chose colors; if
someone has a better idea for colors, they can easily be changed.
Also I thought the rising sun with the tongue glyph could represent a new
language, which I think is something unique to conlanging--that is,
a conlang is a new language. In the real world, there are no "new"
languages, because they're constantly evolving. What people call a
new language is just basically just a new name for something that's
been evolving slowly over time--even creoles evolve slowly over
time (though much more quickly than other languages). In that sense,
the only new languages are conlangs.
Aside from that, I like the chimera idea, as well--it's just harder to draw.
;)
Any way to get a premade one?
