[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1256729"] The answer to the OP's actual question is "yes, those are integral parts of your system and apps and you should not remove them." The "All Images" folder in the finder sidebar is not a folder at all -- it's an instant search of your entire hard drive to find (literally) all the images, no matter where they are or what they are part of. So the flags, for example, are probably the flags OS X itself uses to identify what language has been chosen as the default. Again, leave them alone. Because the "All Images" folder is not really a folder, it also can't be managed like a folder. If you remove things from it, they will actually be removed from the real place they are actually stored -- even inside programs -- and this WILL cause havoc and data loss, so again ... leave it alone.
