This image or media file is available on the Wikimedia Commons as File:Flag of the United States.svg, where categories and captions may be viewed. While the license of this file may be compliant with the Wikimedia Commons, an editor has requested that the local copy be kept too.
The only requirement was that this image was invisible, either by being the same color as the page, or by being transparent. Spacer GIFs themselves were small transparent image files. GIF files were used as it was a common format that supported transparency, unlike JPEG. These files were commonly named spacer.gif, transparent.gif or 1x1.gif.
