So I was just Googling around, looking for the answer to "what does this heraldic charge look like?", and stumbled across The Little Heraldry Book. It's a delight, and well worth a bookmark. It has various articles on heraldry, but most usefully it has a *zillion* pictures of various heraldic charges, colors, field divisions, etc. I particularly note the page on crosses, which shows a wide variety of them and helps show what all those different names refer to.

Recommended to anyone who needs to ask, "What does this heraldese actually *mean*?". Probably especially useful for scribes and illuminators as a quick reference...
