Apologies if this is old news (I did a cursory search of the forum, as well as that of the IAAH) ... but I’ve just noticed the College of Arms’ new website redesign.

There they also post the actual images of recent grants of arms. They’re gorgeous.

Yes, the new version of the website is much smarter than the old one, and looks more professional IMHO.  There’s even a link to York Herald’s twitter page—and yet, in contrast, the paintings of the arms recently granted to Sir Michael Perry and to Lewes Old Grammar School depict old-fashioned shield shapes.  Quite a mix of ancient and modern.
