<BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: blue 2px solid"><FONT face=Arial>Azure and Sable, with an argent chevron proper, two<BR>argent sickles, and an argent griffin rampant</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
<DIV>How is it divided? Vertically? Horizontally? Diagonally up to the left? To the right? Plain line? Complex line? There's a lot of possibilities.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Also, if you're dividing it "Azure and Sable", then you're going to encounter a visual contrast problem. Those two colors don't show up well together. You can't tell where one color begins and another color ends. That alone will kill your emblazon.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Then there's the question of the "argent chevron proper". There's no such thing as a "chevron proper", and certainly not an "argent chevron proper". I'd drop the "proper" part, if I were you. The rest can stand by itself.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Finally, how are you arranging these charges? That becomes very important, especially when we need to do some conflict checking.</DIV>
