Harold Thomas didn't allow Google to upload my logo with the Aboriginal flag, as he is the owner and designer of the it. So, they had someone to digitally remove the flag, leave the 'sun' and add more 'sky and stars'. I was really disappointed when we got an email telling us this, but yeah, it's not like I can do anything about it. :l The Aboriginal flag was removed because of copyright reasons.

I believe if you want to use the aboriginal flag for ads or public events you need approval, I think? I wonder if they didn’t have approval for it?

Jessie’s original entry included the Aboriginal flag but this has been removed from the image on Google’s homepage.

But what happened to the Aboriginal Flag behind the yellow sun? This was on the original design, but by the time it came to publishing it on the google homepage, it's been removed. I'm astonished and appalled by this. I love what Google did – the competition is a great idea.
