You all know what I'm talking about...the green computer screen that Data looks at at very high speed, in "Conspiracy" and a few other episodes. There were several images that flash on the screen for nanoseconds. Does anyone have any screenshots of this, or clearer shots of ones we've already seen? Some examples were:

-a refit Constitution class labeled as U.S.S. Constitution NCC-1700;

-an Orion Wanderer-class ship from FASA;

-a Lotus Flower-class neutronic fuel carrier from FASA;

-a parrot with (supposedly) Gene Roddenberry's head;

-what looks to be a space station, maybe from FASA;

-a TNG shuttlecraft.

Am I missing anything?

Actually that picture is from FJ's Starfleet TM.

I've made a couple of screenshots (The Naked Now, Datalore, Conspiracy).

And what's the story behind those little aliens?

Spike: Thanks! I don't think I could have asked for clearer 'caps, although it would have been nice to be able to read the print, but it's too illegible.

The first one was the one I thought was a space station. It also appears in STII. The second one is a mystery. It looks like two Voyager aeroshuttles back-to-back, but of course that's not what it is.

Notice also the caption under the bird reads "THE GREAT BIRD OF THE GALAXY"...

The second pictures looks like your typical modular cargo ship to me.

Considering that the other picture is also of a cargo ship (the Lotus Flower), and that it's only a top view like this one, I'm inclined to agree with you, However, I've skimmed through Shipschematics trying to find this design, but so far have had no luck. I figured it might have been another FASA design, but who knows...

1. the original link doesn't work.

2. The bird... hmmm heh - maybe it is a captain's pet out there... maybe he like dressing it up. Maybe he's like some sort of pirate! [Wink] Maybe it's an emblem something like the 'workbee' and the 'defiant with teeth' pics from the DS9 tech manual.

3. the first linked picture - I thought 'space station' but, if it has also been seen in TWoK it doesn't fit my second suggestion that it looks like the captain's yacht with some sort of nacelle above it.

4. The last pic - looks like two ships close together. They're not depicting the gravity plating are they?

Just had a thought - maybe the Conspiracy Aliens replaced a captain with a bird as a way of disrupting Starfleet! [Wink]

It was a pre-refit Connie labelled NCC-1700

using my special enhance routine.. the second pic up there seems to have address lines,

TO: CAPT. XXX(X?) XXXX(X?)
USS XXXXXXXXXX NCC-(4?)XXXX
.
FROM: ADMIRAL GREGORY QUINN
XXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXX
.
SUBJECT: XXXXXX (SHIP?) XXXXX XXXX(X?)
.
STARDATE: (4?)XXXX.X
.

Whew.. i actually got a lot of that.. not. For the first line, it looked like it said 'CAPT JIM KIRK' and 'USS ENTERPRISE', but that seems unlikely to be followed by a five digit registry.

[edit.. further examination.. i realized the second line (the FROM field) must be a rank/name/name/ and stared at it, revealing Quinn's name (foreshadowing he would be the villain.. thats why i like Okudagrams! [Big Grin] )]

I think it has Gene Roddenberry's face, actually, which would be consistant with the in-joke.
