I think it would be interesting - you know... How many people chose an 
argent lion and how many use a bagwyn.  Then we could do a pic dic for the 
Kingdom.  If we had a list of charges online, with some simple black and 
white drawings of them, people could use the heraldry for all sorts of 
things.  I was really impressed with this one web page I found which lists 
all the devices for each Kingdom ( 
http://www.goldenstag.net/MiscSCA/KingdomColors.htm)   I would like us to 
develop a page with this information for our groups and encourage the 
development of ensigns, livery colors, etc.

So gathering the info would be the first step.
