Great - more of what I thought we'd end up with. Just a suggestion - can you try replacing the middle of the 'A' with the Aussie flag stars? The logo will be up on a massive screen at the Sydney Convention Centre, so we don't need to worry too much about fine detail not being seen.
We're going to tweak your design slightly in terms of colour pallet, but otherwise we are good to go. By putting the stars outside of the design, this means we can animate them as a separate object.
Thanks very much - will be posting this as the winner in the next couple of minutes.
