Right, let's get some proper feedback on this set of ideas of mine. Not long after joining The Other Place, I came up with a thin excuse of a POD that, over the last 12 years, has served more as a sandbox for exploring ideas than as a serious timeline. One of these involved an alternate Australia, its states and their flags. I think all of these are enough of my own work to post but it has been a while so please just let me know if I've failed to credit someone else...
They were also all done before I got the hang of SVGs and Inkscape so are all raster art, I've shrunk the image down a bit for both size and to hide some ragged edges. But I'd like to know what people think of the ideas.

The main flag was inspired by the flag of the Eureka Rebellion but seemed plausible for a general Southern Cross theme, rather than implying the state later sought to legitimise the rebels.
The borders weren't just copy-pasta from OTL, but vaguely speaking:
Aururia ~ Victoria, Avalon ~ Tasmania, Cavendia ~ Queensland, Concordia ~ Western Australia, Flinders ~ South Australia, New [South] Wales, North-West Terr ~ Northern Terr, Capital District surrounds OTL Eden, NSW.
