If Sulu was on the planet and Sulu was the bridge, then there must be two Sulus. Unless you are talking about the so called "Planet of Peace" or whatever then he was. if you are talking about "God's Planet" then he was not.

And I already said that it doesn't matter that Checkov was captain for the Nimbus III bit, since he was just a distraction. But for the God planet bit, he should have been in command. Cause he can actually speak without sounding like a moron.

yeah, on Sha Ka Ree was there anyone in command? i thought that they just sat there being stoned while the Klingons blew their asses off.
I was referring to Chekov being in command at Nimbus.. since Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Uhura and Sulu were all planetside and Scotty was too busy breaking the transporter.

Well, Ian Sulu had moved over to the captain's chair, when he could have easily sat there stoned from his normal helmsman position, so I guess he was in command.

I got an email from none other than Mike Okuda who saw this on TrekBBS the other day. He had answers to several questions as well as a photo of the set as it was being finished up which shows quite clearly the correct lighting (sorry, can't share the image). This is a lot closer to that but it still needs a _lot_ of work:

The shadows look a lot better, although those around the captain's chair still look a bit harsh.
And Sean, honey, baby, I really appreciate this new "post at a small size with a link to a bigger size". I do. It's great. It's super. It's smashing.
BUT...come with me to a scary place. A dark and forboding place. This place we call...800 x 600. Do you see it? Do you see how the picture still forces people to scroll sideways across the page if they want to read things? Do you hear them gnash their teeth in frustation, and scream?
We can fix this Sean. You and I. Together we can make the world a better place for those trapped in the dimension of Really Big Icons And Stuff. By posting pictures that, at a size of 800 x 600, don't strech the forums.
Do this Sean. Do it for me. Do it for little Alan, and his 30 year old monitor. Do it for little George, whose parents won't let him change the resulution. Do it for fat Tim, who has to access this place from school/library/porn shop, and CAN'T change the resolution of the screen, no matter how much he may wish.
These people want to see your stuff. They love it. But the frustration of the scolling is a distraction from the purity of the art.
Do it Sean. Do it for them. You will be rewarded in heaven.

The photo of Chekov and Sulu is from AFTER the planetary rescue, you foolz. See all the "hostages" on the bridge? This is when Kirk, Spock & McCoy are breaking out of the brig and Scotty is knocking himself out (literaly) on exposed pipes!
You figured that out, didn't you?
Welcome back to Flare, SeanR. I'm glad you came back. Beautiful stuff you do.

I myself access the forums from home on an 800x600 monitor via a 56K modem. Frankly, it doesn't bother me a damn bit. If it bothers you that bady, then don't open my threads, but frankly I'm sick of hearing about it.
The only reason I posted the thumbnails before was because the fullsized images were 1600x1200, and no one needs to download those unles they really want to check the detail. I have a hotkey set in photoshop which makes it easy to create the half-size images, so I do that. I'm not going to go to the trouble to make another one to go to 640x480 for the 5% of the population still stuck at 800x600 (or, rather, the 5% of them that bitch about it).

Much closer this time. I think I can finally say I'm truely happy with the lighting. Only one more tweak left, to the lights from light panels in the pit, and that'll be easy now that I've finally got the oners right.
