Golden Lance from Eowyn

Hi! I just saw the proposed design for the Order of the Golden Lance (great idea, BTW) - the badge has clearly been "Caidanized" by adding the embattled bordure. If it is not too late in the process, I suggest that the embattlements be turned slightly, so that the lance is not shown going from battlement to battlement (which makes it look like the long thin gold thing is joining them), but rather that the lance goes from merlon to merlon, which provides some blue space around the gold object. I also suggest that the lance be drawn a bit thicker, even though that wreaks havoc with the proportions. That makes it easier to figure out what the long thin thing is, from a distance of greater than a few inches. These are just suggestions to make the badge more legible.--EowynA 11:18, 17 November 2008 (PST)

Rotating the embattlement does not require a heraldry change. It is just artistic. I'll see what I can find on a more distinct lance (probably in a heraldry book, actually), and scan it and make a vector drawing. --EowynA 13:22, 17 November 2008 (PST)

Crown Poems Summer 2008

One of the participants in the most recent crown came to the wiki to look up their poem. Unfortunately, their poem has not yet been added. I know you're hella busy. Do you have a guess when the poems will be "filled out"? Would there be anyone else who could copy the poems in?--Lachlan 11:30, 20 January 2009 (PST)

• Well... the agreement with the crown poem staff is that I won't add new poem books until the next coronation, so that the paper copies can be sold out. They just allowed me to put up the poems about us, so I could link to our royal page. So I'm under obligation not to put them up until June coronation. If they need them earlier, I can send hard copies. --Kolfinna 12:49, 20 January 2009 (PST)
• I haven't found anyone else with pagemaker, which is the program required to open the source files. If we can find someone with that program and the time and inclination to do it, I'll happily send the project along. --Kolfinna 12:53, 20 January 2009 (PST)
  • Thank you. Understood. I have let her know of the necessary limitation. I also do not use Pagemaker.--Lachlan 13:05, 20 January 2009 (PST)
