So I have been thinking about a city game for over 5 years now and slowly designing it over that time in the shower and other free thinking time. I have started a OP for it now but I have it still set to private until I get some more stuff in there. I am making this thread as a place I can ask for some assistance when needed and to keep a record of that assistance. The game will be a hybrid 3.5 and Pathfinder game (set mostly in 3.5 rule set).
So the first thing I could use some help on right now is coat of arms building. I have a bunch of organizations and royal families (based off of metallic dragons) for the city and I want to make symbols/emblems/coat of arms type thing for them and was wondering if anyone had a good suggestion of a program, website, etc. that would help me?

This site I linked has a ton of graphics sitting around(a good amount are all done up as examples. Another one I spotted is very very low grade style but "that may be better":http://www.mytribe101.com/crest/ for what you seem to claim is your sill level.

It follows HarnMaster heraldry rules which are slightly different than standard earth.
This one is also kinda neat "http://web.meson.org/blazonserver/":http://web.meson.org/blazonserver/ - it converts the text description to the graphic. Naturally the description has its own language. The good news is that the language of blazons is well explained on the site. It even allows graphics to be added from elsewhere on the net. And yes, this one follows current-day blazon rules of Earth.
Hope these help.

Jaymes, I would suggest you get in touch with ikabodo. His campaign "Oath of Crows" has many excellent examples of shields and heraldry, and I would wager he would be able to give you some good advice.
