APhi's colors actually used to be blue and gold, but since DU also uses those colors, our colors were changed to silver & bordeaux

What do you mean by most correct for heraldry? I was a little stumped by that. Anyway, here is what ours looks like for anyone interested... I always thought it was pretty complex as well, at least more than some others I've seen. Quite a bit of symbolism, but don't they all have that. This should be a new thread, "post your coat of arms"

Actually, I think that would be a very interesting topic! There are some really beautiful coat-of-arms/crests out there that I have seen. Unfortunately, my sisters and I couldn't take part in the thread since the meaning of our crest is secret but if any other GLO's coat-of-arms is something that non-members can know about it would be interesting to know!

OK everyone else is getting picky so I am going to too. AGD's colors go Red, Buff and Green, not red green and buff. Initiated members know why

Brian, while yours is intricate, If you delve in to Hereldity, there were cetain things that made up the Crests of each House! When I started my Local, I designed the Crest, only later did I find out that it signified the Bastard son of the Sire! Well actually it fit as 1/2 of the new guys were from other Houses! Well I was crushed till I thought, well that was right as we were mere Bastards doing our own thing!
