I'd like to have screenshots of Star Trek: The Motion Picture,Star Trek: The Voyage Home and Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country. I especially want shots of respectively the Rec Deck, UFP Counsel and Khitomer Conference scenes.

Look at the 5th picture... there is a Tellerite! To Scotty's left...
Are those blue guys... Bolians!?! They're definately not Andorians... Could they be those Troyians?
Are those Yellow people... updated versions of Arcturian Clones??
Does anyone have screen caps of the 'fight scene' on Rurapenthe... supposedly we get to see some Betelgueseans like from TMP...
Also, is that a smiling Vulcan in the last picture? The Romulan Ambassador Nunclas is being taken away - maybe its another Romulan...
I like how they got the check pattern into the Ambassador's clothes... ------------------ Homer: I'm gonna miss Springfield. This town's been awfully good to us. Bart: No, it hasn't, Dad. That's why we're leaving. Homer: Oh, yeah. [pokes his head out the window] So long, Stinktown!

Rura Penthe, second page, third picture, far right. Yridian?
------------------ "Beliefs are dangerous. Beliefs allow the mind to stop functioning. A non-functioning mind is clinically dead. � Believe in nothing..." -Tool, �nima
2nd Rurapenthe page, last pic - to Kirk's left, is that a Tellarite!?!
Also, that could be a Yridian, if we wanted it to be, because the makeup would have (well physiological features would have) changed over 100 years until their appearences in TNG.
Rurapenthe, 2nd page, 3rd image... what IS that creature directly behind Kirk!?! It looks reptilian... could it be a TOS movie version of the Gorn...
I wonder how the Klingons and the Gorn get on?
I wonder how the Gorn and the Cardassians get on - they're both sort of reptilian... does anyone think that the Cardassians are evolutionary more advanced than the Gorn?
What about Saurians... presumably they get on well with 'mammalian' species...
Maybe if the Dino-Saurians from Earth never left, then Earth might have ended up like the Gorn worlds...
I wonder if there are any sort of special relations between the reptilian worlds?? ------------------ Homer: I'm gonna miss Springfield. This town's been awfully good to us. Bart: No, it hasn't, Dad. That's why we're leaving. Homer: Oh, yeah. [pokes his head out the window] So long, Stinktown!

The "smiling Vulcan" is wearing a yellow sash, which apparently signifies the Romulan delegation. At least the other pictures seem to show the Klingons exclusively in red sashes, while all yellow-sashers have pointed ears, and only the blue-sashed group appears racially diverse and probably thus signifies the Federation delegation.
The Klingon and UFP delegations also seem to feature sash-less personnel, mainly from the respective militaries (but Sarek is also sashless). The Romulans all seem to be sashed, although that of Ambassador Nanclus is far more decorative than those of the rest of the troupe.
Also note the stalls for the delegations are color-coded accordingly... yet there are two shades of blue in the stalls, even though only one dark shade in the sashes. What does this signify? Most of the humans (including all the SF-uniformed ones) sit in the dark blue stall, while the assorted aliens sit in the light blue stalls. Is there a division to "lower- and higher-ranking" members in the UFP?
Also, there are green sashes worn by human-looking people, although the pictures do not reveal a green stall for them. Perhaps the stall is to the left of the Klingons - note the standards on the back wall, with red-plus-Klingon-symbol behind the Klingon delegation, and a yellow one behind the Romulans, plus the familiar UFP logo behind the dark blue stalls. Perhaps the green standard to the left means the green delegation sits there, just outside our view? (Who are these green folks, and why do they look so humanlike?)
It would be interesting to see what that yellow standard really looks like. Does it have the Romulan bird of prey clutching the twin worlds? Or does it show some earlier logo for the Star Empire? The Klingon logo here is all black in "modern" style, in contrast to the old tricolor TOS logo - is there a significance to the coloration? Was the Romulan logo also colored differently back then?
Did anybody spot other sash colors apart from red, yellow, dark blue and green?
The flags on the poles are also interesting. They are probably not grouped to match the delegations, because there is such striking similarity in patterns between flags standing in UFP, Romulan and Klingon stalls. What might they represent? They probably aren't purely decorative, since there is odd variation to the patterns - not all of them are simply five-striped, but some have more complex shapes and perhaps imagery to them.

Oops! I completely forgot to look through the "Khitomer 2" page! (How does one do a blushing smiley?)
Hmm. Yes, agreed that the green wall symbol must be for the green delegation - its mounting is identical to those of the Klingon, UFP and Romulan ones. An interesting symbol. Have we seen it elsewhere? ("Paradise Syndome"? Are these transplanted humans who don't like the idea of rejoining Earth's dominion? Why are they so important - are they militarily strong?)
It's really weird to see Sarek sharing the pulpit with Nanclus. Perhaps this was because Sarek was considered a leading diplomat behind the meeting instead of merely a UFP representative, and because Romulans were the hosts?
Romulans being the hosts would seem to be supported by the fact that their stalls were centrally located, and that there was only the Romulan banner prominently displayed on the exterior of the meeting hall above the main doors. If Khitomer was a Romulan instead of Klingon world at this time, it would also better match Azetbuhr's description of it as a "neutral" location.
One mystery remains: are those UFP logos on all the semicircular pulpit covers? Why are these logos applied on all those surfaces, even the Klingon, Romulan and Green ones? Or does the image perhaps change according to the current speaker? (It failed to change when Azetbuhr spoke, though, IIRC)
Or is it just a coincidence that the Romulan building happens to be decorated with a blue circle and laurels?

Khitomer, page 1, last pic: Is that Sela behind Ambassador Nanclus???
(Hihi, the one to the left of him looks like a teacher of mine )
My theory is that the Green ones are independent observers, or perhaps some press invited by the three powers.
The UFP logos all over the place could suggest that Khitomer Conference was hosted by the Federation, and that Khitomer is possibly more UFP territory than it is Klingon or Romulan.

Re 2nd and 4th pics on the first Khitomer page:
Who's the golden-faced individual with the blue sash behind the Starfleet officers in the second, and is he the same dude that's behind Cartwright in the fourth?
I don't think say, because I think i can just make out a green sash on the homey behind Cartwright (who probably HAS a name, I just couldn't be arsed looking it up).
Ideas on the jack in the second, then?
------------------ At that point, McDonald fired his gun three times in the air to emphasize his point. The crowd, estimated at 350,000, loudly cheered the new candidate.
"Let me make this clear: I am the law! I am your ruler! And you will have fries with that, motherf*cker!"
Looks like a hairy lizard or a bug-eyed cat...! Andrew, is that what you were on about re the Gorn? I don't think it is, if it is if you is gettin' what I is sayin' a'i?

I don't think they're the same. The individual in #2 has a golden skin, the other in #4 has a orange/brown/yellow skin.
The guy in #4 wears a blue sash and I'm sure that his name wasn't mentioned.
I made the screenshots and page 2 after your posting.
