Updated the Banner! What do people think? (See OP)
it's clever but honestly the coat of arms is a bit of a turn off. Hmm... Yes a Coat of Arms represents a history of violence. Not, Good... I guess I can make a new one... Any Idea's? I like ideas! Clint Eastwood-like dude with a hat and a glinting bitcoin in his tooth? Maybe ripping off the old Dick Smith logo a little?  Stylised blockchain in the shape of Australia with a big Bitcoin in the middle? I'd drop the double slash though. Someone said it was specifically US to look like an "S" with a U cutting through it. Aboriginal mural inspiration? |

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

Ok the laws to 'legal age' are a bit strange in Victoria for bars. In general, if it is a ‘bar’ you can enter, however they will ask ID when you buy a drink. ‘Clubs’ on the other-hand require you to present your ID at the door. Even those sometimes have that ability for a minor to enter; they will give you a writs-band so you cannot by alcoholic drinks. If we pick a venue that is like a 'bistro' then minors will have no issues. |

I live in Mackay Qld but am travelling to Melb soon for a visit, a tentative for me just not sure of my times at the moment. It would be good to meet up with you guys and talk about ideas, I would love to start a bitcoin business at this early stage and get the jump on the big boys who will eventually come around to it. Aussies are usually good with tech uptake but not so much when money is at risk.
Being a cantankerous old fart I dont get out to the pubs much anymore but I am bringing up bitcoin any chance I can get with people, it is an obsession these days with me lol.

If you want to be part of our community re-building effort, please hop into #bitcoin-aus on Freenode. This is the most active Australian Forum, and we all would love to say hi! Already logged in and I intend to be at the meeting too. I'll also be bringing copies of my GPG key fingerprint so people can confirm that in person and we can get some GPG key signing done. |
