Welcome aboard, Gerard!
Love your site: it's great to build models from.
Although you still havent re-scaled the sabre from the 350 meter(ish) size to the 170(ish) size it should be. 8)

You planning on doing any NX-01 Enterprise ship comparisons?

Your link doesn't work for me. All I get are "The page cannot be found" messages at every level except for the root, at which I get a "Forbidden" message.

Very nice work! The format is quite good, though one really needs a bigger screen for the bigger decks. I can understand the reason for it, though.

And, I enjoyed the bowling alley / firing range on Deck 6. For frustrated bowlers? [Smile]

Excellent work. I still wish I had my original set of Enterprise plans.

You might want to know that, at least in Mozilla 1.5, whenever you hover on a location name and it gets highlighted on the blueprint, the highlight image appears a little down and to the right of where it should be.

Hey, just looked at the plans, they're pretty terrific!

Two small quibbles:

On Deck 8 you've drawn the airlocks to conform to Mr. Scott's Guide, but the layouts in that book are, sadly, incorrect and don't match what's shown on screen. As this photo shows, what's directy across from the entrance is a sloped wall with a bench. There's no docking ring type airlock door there. Since Kirk enters the airlock through the small door in the background, I'd say it's better to assume the outside hatch is through more or less directly to the (on screen) left of that inside hatch.

The total number of decks.
Yes, never established canonically in any ships of the 1701-A type, but reviewing the the Red Alert status screen seen in TWOK and the TMP trailers, that ship only appears to be 20 decks tall, and there's only one full deck in the superstructure below the bridge.

Gilso.
Very nice effect.
However, the plans you scanned are an intellectual property. If you cannot contact the original artist for permission to publish them, at least do him the courtesy of crediting him on the webpage.
...lest he become pissed at you.

The credit information has been added, and the plans where created by Strategic Design, not by intellectual property, from my copy of the Deck plans. I have already spoken about the idea of putting these plans on other Forums where I did try and get in contact with David Schmidt. I did receive alot of feedback from different sources and have stated many times that I do not rip off other peoples work. I just try and show a wide audience, what material they have for a reference point at my site. I also had to take into consideration about printing and people downloading off my site.

I have split the different graphics and also created some bigger, some smaller so no information can be copied and pasted to create a new set of prints.

I hope this answers a few peoples questions as to why such a small screen size was used and why the deck plans where broken up into different sizes.

"Assault Transporter Room"? Nani?

I guess it makes sense to dedicate one room to any Marine actions common to this corner of the fandom. But just one 6-person transporter? Somehow I'd think using one of the 22-person units would make more sense. I guess for mass-beamdowns they'd just cycle squads to the other five rooms, which would likely not be being used for anything else if the situation were as such. But in that case, why even have one dedicated to their use?

I guess it harkens back to the Elite Force games, where Voyager and Enterprise were seen to have a whole mess of EF troops but no transporter large enough to accomodate them all...

Also, the bridge was the ST6 edition of the ship. Nice - the better of the two. [Smile]

Are you planning on designing the rest of the decks of the Enterprise? It sure looks awesome what you are doing and it was about time that it happened. Great Job. [Wink]

An 'intellectual property' is any copyrighted or patented work or concept.

Thanks for the credits. I'm not trying to be small about this - in point of fact, when my partner showed me your site, I was amazed by the web-based layering effect, and we may use it on some of our current work (where errors such as Mr. Neutron noted have been fixed).
