I personally prefer the simpler ones, but I do love how the more ornate ones look on the flag. Maybe the simple ones become the basic emblems and the more ornate ones for the flag?

Actually, there's no reason at all that both sets can't be adopted! Now that I think about it, there's a lot of times you might want to use a simpler logo, and other times you want something fancier. For the top of stationary, for example, you probably want the simple logo. For the top of a pronouncement, you probably want the fancy one.

How would people feel about offering both sets to the Ziu?

This was my flag idea inspired by the tierce of the Lesser State Seal. I originally had the colors the original way, but I like the Long Fellow's reversal because it makes more sense.

I do think they would probably look better with the Long Fellows more ornate borders.

Using the Lesser State Seal as a template is a great idea -- it also helps to break up what I will admit was a somewhat boring field on my previous designs. :P

If we incorporate my seal/border design, this is how they come out.

Alright, getting back into the swing of a few designs here. One silver lining about a hard reset on life is that the time off means I can come back and look at designs with some fresh eyes. I didn't really redesign anything this thread concerns, but I did realize I hadn't created any versions of the seals with transparent backgrounds, so...

I guess it's not clear the next steps here, since there's no official applicant.  I'd suggest that maybe the way to go is for the Coletx (in your person) recommend a course of action to the Ziu, and then a legislator can act on that.  Maybe the way to go is to recommend that they delete the current symbols from el Lexh, and then recommend substitute blazons?

I think these are the blazons as they seem to be, to the best of my ability.  Whether the Ziu will prefer Carlus' or Mic'haglh's emblazonment is up to that body.

Device of the Cosa:  Argent, the facade of Merrill Hall sable, within an engrailed bordure or.
Device of the Senats: Argent, the facade of Merrill Hall sable, within a braided bordure or studded with eight jewels gules.
Flag of the Cosa: A 2:3 vertically striped bicolour of green and red, charged on the fly side with the device of the Cosa.
Flag of the Senats: A 2:3 vertically striped bicolour of red and green, charged on the fly side with the device of the Senats.

Okay. I'll table this then until we have a new Cosa.

Window panes in heraldry is uncommon, but still it exists.

Why don't we substitute the portcullis with the distinct windowpanes of the Greene Hall and the Merill Hall for the Senate and the Cosa respectively?

I've moved forward with this in my capacity as an MC. Does anyone feel any particular way about reversing the color dispositions of the flags?
