Infernal Devices

manyra's eventual success and ya_inga's continuing nightmare, I'm wondering if it's even worth it to submit a device. I'm allowed to because I have my AoA, but it sounds like I'll be waiting forever for them to tell me "no".
Anyway, here's what I want:
Yeah it looks really crappy, that's because I can't draw and my ability to use graphical programs is at the hold-a-crayon-in-your-fist level. My talents lay in other creative realms.
Can anyone out there in SCA-land tell me if it has anything obviously wrong with it, and how I would describe it in heraldese?
I have two additional ideas: The first is to simply use the device above and skip getting it approved. Really, who's going to call me on it (unless it duplicates someone else's device)?
Second, if I decide to go that route, do I replace the purple background with the same fabric as on my sanity-blasting kilt? That probably will elicit negative comment. Perhaps I'll make two - one "fun" one to show friends and one "official" one for actual display where strangers will see it. I'm one of the least "period" guys in the society, but that doesn't mean I want to ruin anyone elses fun.
