Hey Rob, I used GIMP, and got the ubuntu and canonical logos off the internet, and took the screenshots myself.
You can download all the images and things i used here: http://mehall.co.cc/Poster.tar.gz As for scaling it up to A3, it could probably be done, albeit with a loss of quality, but you're welcome to try :D It's also probably worth noting that if you are going to use a border printer, to try keep all the borders around the image the same size, so it doesn't become disoriented.
