[Current flag]
This flag is based on California Republic 1st flag (a worst concept), on the other hand based on California Lone Star flag (very good, but maybe too generic). The current design is a good flag, the only problems are the writings and the excess of "fur". My proposal is this:

The star and the bear are bigger, and maybe it's even better in clothing and pop art, where California flag is commonly seen.
The next is Indiana:

Although having a dark blue background, as many state flags, its design make it still distinguishable. The big problem on it is the writing; it's easy to solve: just adopt the original Paul Hadley's design, without the word.

OK, so let's come to the next: South Dakota.

The flag has many bad points: the state seal, the state name (if counts with the same, it's been written twice) and, even worse, a slogan. At least, it still resembles the better flag used between 1909 and 1992. But it still need to be simplified.

I also increased sun size and changed the colors to better contrast. I must note that there's an official flag proposal, but I think it's good but inexpressive.
The last flag of the post is Wyoming:

The design is distinguishable, I'll only remove the seal and increase the size of the bison.

With this, we end the post.
