Another flag used by skinheads and football hooligans (groups which overlap much) is red, with large "armed arm" in white. It is shown in a photo on the cover page of issue #3 of "Stadion", a Polish magazine dedicated to promoting anti-racism among sports fans. The said issue can be found online (in PDF format) at http://www.nigdywiecej.org/pdf/pl/stadion/stadion_3.pdf.

NOP variant #1

Here are 2 flags of the Narodowe Odrodzenie Polski ["National Rebirth of Poland"] which are reconstructed from pictures of a reunion for its 25th anniversary.
The first flag is its "armed arm" logo in white on a green background.
I find the use of the colour green interesting since it has not national significance (as far as I know) but might have taken its inspiration from the Romanian New Right to which they are allied through the "National European Front", a loose confederation of neo-nazis.
Marc Pasquin, 29 March 2007

This is the main flag of the movement, with photos being available since the beginning of their online presence, at their website and elsewhere. The shade of green is usually similar to that used by the New Right of Romania, but other shades can be seen sometimes as well. The size and shape of the emblem also vary somewhat, as well as the flag ratio.

The flag with white "armed arm" on black field was also much used during the 2000's. It was used alone [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], but also together with the flag with green field [8, 9, 10]. It seems to have been much less used during the 2010s, still there are several examples of its use, again either alone [12, 13] or with the green flag [14]. The size and shape of the emblem may vary, and so does the flag ratio.

NOP variant #2

[NOP variant #2] image by Marc Pasquin and Tomislav Todorovic, 14 March 2014

Here are 2 flags of the Narodowe Odrodzenie Polski ["National Rebirth of Poland"] which are reconstructed from pictures of a reunion for its 25th anniversary.
The second is black with the letter NOP in white the "O" being a tilted square containing their logo in black.
Marc Pasquin, 29 Mar 2007

The event, which was actually the Congress of the movement, took place in Warsaw on 2006-11-25: http://www.nop.org.pl/old_www/?artykul_id=494

The photos reveal that the white diamond, on which the black "armed arm" is placed, is actually separated from letters N and P by a black fimbriation. More recent photos and videos showing the use of this flag were made in Szczecin on 2013-03-12, at the "March for a Healthy Family", an anti-LGBT and anti-feminist demonstration: http://www.nop.org.pl/2013/03/12/szczecin-wolny-od-dewiacji-relacja-z-marszu-dla-zdrowej-rodziny/
