| [[Image:badgeInsulaMagna.png|thumb|Unofficial Insula Magna badge: <i>Argent, in pale a mullet of eight points voided and a ship within a bordure wavy azure</i> <p>'''Note: '''Insula Magna is not a branch - it can't be, since only Principalities and Kingdoms can be made up of a group of branches, hence it has no official existence. At the moment, the name cannot be registered as the only way to do so would be as a household name, and Insula Magna is not acceptable to the [[College of Heralds]] as such. However, the badge has been registered and is freely available for use by all who live within Insula Magna's precincts.]]

| |
| | |
| Insula Magna once had an unofficial website, The Insula Magna Blue Pages (http://bluepage.tirrigh.org). (Not being an offfical branch, it can't have an offical site.)
| |
| The site had a Calendar and popular Forums for the Island.
| |
| Originally started as the Upper Island Blue pages, their mandate changed to include the Barony of Seagirt, so all groups were represented on the Blue Pages.
