Shop Comment: ExplorOz Spare Wheel Cover

Bugger! We’ll have to get the Aussie and NZ flags changed as well.

Alan, If you are standing up maybe, but as pictured is how it looks when lying in your swag. lol

Guessing you would find a wheel cover with a compass printed on it very annoying :)

You can't see the Southern Cross from the Northern Hemisphere, therefore "as seen from" isn't applicable, so they won't be concerned with that will they? isn't that why it is called a Southern Cross? and you cannot see EO wheels covers fitted to 4wd's from there as well, it is half a world away.
The 4WD and tent are on the side of a hill and the smoke is taken upwards by the breeze. The Cross is ok.
I like the compass idea so you can "drive off in all directions at the same time".

To address your concerns, please notice that the symbolic line drawings used to depict the 4WD vehicle, the tent and the campfire on this cover are artistic impressions, as is is the Southern Cross. Each symbol is placed so that it "bends" around the curve of the wheel using artistic licence. You will notice that the vehicle is curved on its outer edge to bend it's shape around the circular outline of the wheel (ie. bending inwards), and the Southern Cross on the opposite side of the design is tilted slightly inwards to the left to achieve the same "balance" effect in the design.

Don't forget you need the two pointers to find south.

The orientation of the Southern Cross is the same as that shown on our two dollar coin, so our Aussie Mint is also applying poetic license.

Strewth equinox , surely you're joking.
