Namysłów commune new flag

It looks like the commune's council is messing around a lot with their symbols. You've got one of the new flags right - the vertical one.
But, according to the "uchwala" (resolution?) of 2005 the commune has two flags - one horizontal and the other vertical.
It says: "The Commune's flag is the rectangular horizontal flag and the rectangular vertical one with the Arms, and in the colors of red, black, yellow and white.
Rectangular horizontal flag: rectangular piece of cloth in the red, black, yellow and white colors, placed vertically, in the sequence starting from the hoist - red, in the form of trapezoid, with two straight angles, band of black adjoining the red trapezoid and band of yellow, double the width of the black band. The rest of the flag, comprising 1/2 of its length is of the white color. Ratio of the width to the length of the flag is 1:2.
Vertical flag with the Arms: rectangle of the colors of the horizontal flag, where the Arms are placed in the middle of the white, upper part of the flag."
And you are right again - the Arms were changed too - in the graphic display - modernized? as you've said.
Conclusion: the horizontal flag is plain, without the Arms, and the vertical one (banner?) is more elaborate - (ceremonial?) with the inclusion of the Arms.

According to the communal website the present flag differs from all previous ones: it is a banner of 4 horizontal slanting sripes white - yellow - black - red, with in topcenter the communal arms. Overall proportions 2:1.
The arms are also different: the eagle is facing sinister and is a bit modernized, it seems.
