Frustrating one for #TidyTuesday - struggled to get good spacing for the flags without mucking up the aspect ratio on the image of Bobby Moore.
Preserving aspect ratios for {ggimage} seems basically impossible. Trying to get good horizontal spacing warps the aspect ratio. Maybe with more time I could get it to work?
And although we beat (West) Germany in 1966, they've definitely punished us for it over the years ...

@_jcken Looks awesome!
geom_image() seems to always rescale images to the same aspect ratio as the whole plot, I've been using ggtextures::geom_textured_rect() instead, which lets you set width and height 🤷
