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" http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif


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 http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

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!
