Why do you think that the Ausflag competitions did not find a stunning new design to truly define Australia?
Probably because many of the best designs were not entered as the copyright had to be given to Ausflag regardless of whether the entry became a winner. Even the designers of the top 100 entries are not acknowledged by name on the Ausflag website – acknowledgement was limited to the finalists. In the last competition for professional designers Ausflag claim copyright ownership of some 3500 designs, despite having given nothing in exchange for such claimed copyright acquisition.

That is why I have dedicated the copyright to the Australian People to celebrate the 95th Anniversary of ANZAC Day – and introduced the 10% GSC – Good Sport Contribution.
