Other versions

Derivated from User:Kerem Özcan's Ottoman Flag.svg and Ottoman flag alternative 2.svg. The star shape was slightly updated by DsMurat and the color of the flag was readjusted by Niusereset in the newer versions, as seen in the file history. Finally, Orwellianist revised the thickness of crescent and star based on the additional historical photos.
