Using the image at http://www.skelleftea.se/logotyper, I made this image of the flag of Skellefteå.

The partition should be wavy, but apart from this the image is very good.

Official blazon in Swedish: "I blått fält en gyllene sol och däröver en genom vågskura bildad gyllene ginstam belagd med en blå antik blixt."
