I like both!

I don't think either of them is an overly 'pretty' flag. It's the emotion and the symbolism that people tie to things like flags, the Statue of Liberty, etc that make many people think, or call them pretty.
That being said... The Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia (if you want to use it's nickname "Southern Cross") is a 'prettier' flag than either of them, but in post Civil War history has been made ugly by the racism and hate attached to it.
I actually also like the "Silver Standard" (the CSA flag after the S&B).
