I've noticed that for whatever reason, the two above images occasionally don't load and are replaced by annoyingly ugly Xoom buttons... if that's the case right now, I certainly don't know what's going on, but re-entering the thread worked for me. This is my first image post here, so if there's something vital that I don't know, feel free to educate me...

Xoom is extremely unfriendly when it comes to displaying images linked from it. The exact reason escapes me, though I'm sure somebody remembers. If you can, upload the images somewhere else.

I have some webspace here at UT, but someone hacked my account and changed my password... as a result, I can't upload until I go down to the admin and fix the problem on Monday, so Xoom's all I've got at the moment.

For those who want to just go look manually...

Xoom blocks non-Xoom referrers. The moral of the story is, avoid Xoom, Geocities, Tripod, etc., and support the hard-working Web space providers of the world.

I quite like it, but I'd have to see a side view before I commented further.

Weird.....When I went here a minute ago it shwoed the XOOM buttons. Now it shows the image. I like it. It reminds me of the Negh'Var.

Oh, and btw, that happens when you load the image on it's own and reload a page with a link to it.

I like it too. Do you have a side view?

I'm working on the side view, but I haven't nailed it down yet... having a hard time deciding between a flatter profile or a little curviness. All I know for sure is that teh pylons and nacelles are horizontal. I work on paper, and then scan and trace in PSP, and I won't have access to a scanner until this weekend. I'll post a final three-view sometime this weekend, if things go on schedule.

Oh yeah, Bernd... the quote from "Spock's Brain" is actually "Brain and brain, what is brain?!?" Nitpicky, sure, but thought you might like to know... =)

If I were to conceive a side view, I would place the nacelles above the engineering hull, while the rest of the ship would be rather flat. The ship would look a bit Norway-ish (Norwegian?) in this case. Maybe if the Sovereign-type nacelles are turned in the usual direction, it looks a bit more familiar, but this might not be your intention.

Thanks for the hint about the quote. I've noticed that there is often more than one version of a quote in the web, so I will check it out next time. In the meantime I've changed my sig file anyway.
