[BUG] Antarctica location is missing flag icon

[chicken jockey hawk tuah]

When entering Antarctica as your location in your Profile, in view there is no flag icon next to it.

Although there is no *de jure* official flag for Antarctica by law, all sites I have seen that allow Antarctica use the *de facto* white-on-blue flag. Here's a small pixel icon that can be used that I found:

What's the use, it's not like you are actually a scientist using a PC from Antarctica.

A flag won't most likely be put in place since Antarctica is governed by multiple states, no one wants that chunk of ice besides for research.

I know but most sites still use it. Also I value my privacy.

I believe they get thir data from http://www.geonames.org/ and they don;t have a flag for Antartica so you'd likely need to get them to put one for Antartica and it would then appear in Steam.

Interesting side note. In December 2014, I noticed on http://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/ that 9.9gb were downloaded.

That's interesting, I know Valve probably won't do anything but it's bugging me.

I have the same problem. It's a bug with flag icon of isle of Man. I sent a ticket to steam support and got answer from Jared. He said that steam can't manually update flag icon because some county areas is handled by many companies in different ways. Steam support knows about this problem and they will fix it as soon as possible.
