Your flag and symbol are both very nicely crafted, and I love the symbolism, but your "coat of arms" is not an armorial bearing at all. *Pet peeve alert*

You said that about Matbaa's coat of arms, didn't you? :no

Oh well, I'll call it the County Symbol or something, then :thumbsup

Why? He's using European heraldry standards.. Shireroth Heraldry standards... are much looser...

IMHO, it has to be mounted on a shield of some kind in order to be considered a coat of arms, and it needs to be something (or a combination of somethings) which could conceivably appear on a knight's shield. Of course, the outrageous quartering we see on the achievements of some old families is far too decadent.

So they're not technically arms. Fine. But they're still representing my county :thumbsup
