Here is a transformation I use which get's the images from the Kentico supplied Images.Zip

{%
    cultureLocalizedName = GetResourceString(CurrentSite.SiteName + "." + CultureCode);
    return;
|(identity)GlobalAdministrator%}
  </a>
</li>

Hi Hassan,

{%
    cultureLocalizedName = GetResourceString(" " + CultureCode, (CultureCode == "de-de") ? "German" : ((CultureCode == "nl-nl") ? "Dutch" : "Englich"));
    return;
%}

<li>
   <a title="{% cultureLocalizedName %}" href="{%HTMLEncode(URL)%}">{% cultureName %}</a><img src="/Root/media/Folder/{%cultureName%}.png" />
</li>

use above code in transformation with XML transformation type and add your flag icon in media libraries using file name cultureName.png like Dutch.png. I have used it and it's working fine for me.

Thanks,

I also checked for other way but finally i got that In the Language data source we can use only 3 fields- CultureCode,CultureName and URL. So, this is the only way to display flag with language.

Thanks
