But in a purely symbolic sense, it definitely gets the point across, but is also abstract and powerful enough to convey authority.

Nice! I have always liked symbols and flags and this is a good one. Also conveniently unique. Don't think there's a major world flag that uses purple at all. (unless you count Qatar but that's more of a maroon. Aaaand there's also the city of Tokyo, but is that major?)

Thanks M. I was going to use lavender (more feminine or so) but I accidentally got purple and liked the noble/regal feel.

Yes. Purple has ancient foundations in heraldry. There is a certain shellfish that was a precious commodity due to a secretion used as dye.

(now that I read the article, it occurs to me that you have pretty accurately replicated tyrian purple! must be something in the cloud)

I just clicked the standard purple of the Windows 7 Paint program (Yeah. I know). Maybe some programmer had an interest in heraldry?
