Add image and flags in content area  :)
Or enter some content, save the page, create new template with no {contet}, style it with your image and flags, assign it to "home" page.

Turn off WYSIWYG and insert an HTML comment.. It will save, but appear to have no content.

I've learned that every template needs at least a plain {content} tag?

Every template needs to have in it somewhere at least one content tag.
You do not need to use it though.

i.e:  {content assign='junk'} {* nothing will be displayed *}

or as stated above, just put an HTML comment, or a smarty comment {* foo *} into the content area.

Actually i never experienced any problems/errors if not using {content} in template, only problem is page cant be edited  :) "set it and leave it", and if it's meant as a splash page you don't have to edit it anymore after switching template.
