Anyone know Latin? (EDIT: Now with finished picture!)

I'm trying to translate a simple phrase from English to Latin for a heraldry type picture (the little motto, you know) and the different online translators on the internet are giving me different options. It's very confusing! Scared

The phrase in English:

We herald the sun.

What the online translators are giving me:

Nos herald sol solis.

AND

Sed quaedam praenuntia solis.

If someone could confirm that these basically say what the translators claim they do and are grammatically correct, I would be very grateful!

I majored in Latin! Latin's tricky to translate online. Both the translations they were giving you are kind of nonsensical.

I'd translate "we herald the sun" as:
Solem praenuntiamus.

Hope this helps! Smile

And here's the end result. (With the motto rather squashed in there, but such is life, ha ha!)

Nothing says "heraldry!" like supporting animals who look like they're about to jump out at the viewer and savage them.
