Greetings!
As the Dean of the College, it is my initial task to assign you a Fellow from the College to aid and assist you in the creation of your Coat of Arms ( CoA ).
Before I assign one to your request, I wonder if you had a preference in which Fellow is your guide?

I do not have a preference.

You might notice that we don't rush around here.
I have asked a number of Fellows if they are able to assist you with your CoA.
I am not familiar with this *cricket* Fellow.

I am the Jolly Good Fellow of the RTCoA and would help you design your own blazon and emblazon.
Do you have any design in mind apart from the tinctures? Are you aware of the Rules of Heraldry as prevalent in Talossa? (If not you can have a look at the College of Arms' sub-board)

I do not have any design in mind aside from the tinctures. And I have read over the rules.

OK... now since the coat is meant for you and your heirs... I would like to know a little about you, so as to be in a better position to give some meaningful suggestions... before we decide on how to go about it...

You are ‘Cantor’, you sing, and you love music – so MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS can define your love. Or you may choose the ‘CANTOR STICK’. We have used harps and violins in the past, so musical instruments won't be a problem.
You are a computer programmer, so would you like to have the PHYTHON on your coat?
However the PHYTHON on a CANTOR STICK will look like the doctor’s sceptre, so we’ll have to have them differently.
Maybe, we can have the CANTOR STICK in White (traditionally so coloured) dividing the shield into red and black fields. The PHYTHON can be placed on any side and has to be white/ gold or proper.
You also play soccer and involved in film photography, but since these are of recent purport no historical image signifying the same comes to my mind.
NB: Since I couldn't get to you, I glanced at your past posts and threads for the above information. You are free to give more inputs...

It appears that S:reu Xherált Ups Cantoûr is on trip... so this request is likely to take some time...

Sorry for the lack of response, I was in the Bighorns and it appears my smoke signals did not reach. What you said about me is true, I do sing, and I love music, especially the guitar. Perhaps for the film photography something to signify art?

As I said earlier: You are ‘Cantor’, you sing, and you love music – so MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS can define your love. Or you may choose the ‘CANTOR STICK’. We have used harps and violins in the past, so musical instruments won't be a problem. So would you like the Guitar or the Cantor Stick ? The last one actually spells your name ... you normally don't find such a direct reference. You are a computer programmer, so would you like to have the PHYTHON on your coat? Or are you involved in other forms of Comp. Programming? You also play soccer and involved in film photography, but since these are of recent purport no historical image signifying the same comes to my mind. How to signify art? An open parchment with some painting maybe (I guess it would pass) as scroll (folded parchments) are allowed. Btw, if we create a division with a twisted borders, so that it looks like a film roll? Line partitions such as embattled, potenty, dovetailed and raguly comes to mind (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_(heraldry)). Did you get the idea?

Yes, that sound interesting, especially the twisted border division. Where would I be able to see what the CANTOR STICK looks like?
