Omg sorry... I must sound a bit of a brat for changing my mind then being pushy! A thousand apologies!
I like the new design, but could the left Raguly Line be turned so the lines are on the blue side? Then a yellow Mullet star can go in the centre without it touching the gold lines

Or maybe the top left corner and leave the lines as they are... Humm

Or maybe the top left corner and leave the lines as they are... Humm I am going to ask that you take some time, and truly think about what you want. Once you chose your Blazon for your COA, we won't go back and change it after the King has granted it. You've come up with some really good ideas. I am under the opinion that you aren't really sure what you want on your CoA. This would be a good time for you to do some research, and create a CoA that reflects who you are , and what you represent. Be it science, stars ,metal, 42 , or what ever - we will be honored to take a specific design , blazon and emblazon it for you. Unfortunately, we can't do that though until you are 95% sure what you want. How does that sound?

Actually, what I think we have now is perfect The Raguly Lines are ment to represent problems that have been overcome. I was bullied at school for many years, but I have overcome it, also the red shows that I am a fighter, as you have to learn to fight off these things. The star mainly represents science, and I do have a deep love of astronomy (also links in with hhg2tg, stars and all), im also quite a good and noble person (or at least I would like to think so) The blue represents my truth and loyalty to those around me. I have actually checked all the meanings of the current arrangement, and the only thing im not sure on is the blue or green... Blue looks better but greens meaning is better as it represents me more... Greens symbolism being "hope, joy, and loyalty in love" as my girlfriend of 2 Years would agree that they are the words that she would use to describe me... Collage opinion.... Looks or meaning?

I have some thoughts. The latest design raises a couple of concerns. One is that it appears to have a complex fimbriation line on a plain charge, which is frowned upon. The other is that the star on the red on the gold creates an appearance of excessive "layering" (too many layers of elements piled on top of each other).
One idea to fix this is to 1) make the red stripe a little narrower, and 2) instead of a single star on the red stripe, have two stars flanking it (on the blue parts of the field). The whole design could then be blazoned something like "tierced raguly azure and Or a pallet gules between two mullets or". Complexity of 6, I think.

I like the sound of it...but then there is a "slash" down the middle with not much inside.. A bit like a cut if my visual cortex is wired enough :s Also im not sure what the second star could signify :S Also where would you stand on the blue/green frontier?

Another simpler option is to remove the red stripe, and just have a red star (which could then be larger) on the middle golden section with raguly edges (a pale raguly or). Blue or green both would look nice for the rest of the field, I think. It just comes down to what appeals to you most.

I feel that we are just "spinning our wheels" here. We aren't making any progress on this CoA to a final Blazon.
The next Honours Day is "Tafsut Imazighen (Berber Spring)" Honours , which is 20 April. At this time, I am going to suspend discussion on this Petition until 15 April, 2014.
On the 16th of April, I would ask the Petitioner to return, with his Final suggestion for a CoA. From there, the College will make last minute adjustments, and we will present it to the SKA and the King on 18 April.
I thank everyone for their dedication and hard work on this request at this moment. I feel it is time to take a break, and time to re-evaluate just what the Petitioner wants on his CoA.

Right, to avoid missing the deadline (as I am in a wifi zone now but won't be for a while after) I like the most resent visual, I understand it's problems and im and happy for small alterations, but I would like it as close as possible

Final blazon: Tierced per pale raguly azure and Or a pallet gules between two mullets orUnless there are any further issues, I will submit this to the Squirrel King of Arms.

And perhaps just in time for Tafsut Imazighen Honours... which this year coincides with Easter. Very special.
