In Crushers scene of violation... she's with Picard after the Stargazer incident that killed Jack Crusher. Anyway... there is a sign behind Picard's shoulder at some point... my best guess is that it says "Starbase 12" but I could be wrong. I was wondering if anyone knew more about this sign.

It wasn't a starbase. And they undoubtedly didn't wnat to offend their hosts, the Bajorans - who probably preferred the name "Deep Space Nine" to "Terok Nor."

There were a couple of designs for the Starfleet DS9 insignia or sign seen in the TM, possibly they were in the background at some point since they were Drexler or Sternbach designs

Actually it was. Sisko mentions the station as "Starbase Deep Space Nine" in a show in at least season 3 if I recall. It was used a couple of times after that, but even if it wasn't at first, DS9 definitely became classified as a starbase later on.
The sign in the background may be for Starbase 32. Such a sign was shown somewhere in season 1 or 2 I think. There's a recreation of the sign on page 157 of "The Continuing Mission" book.

That must be the worst Picard-photo I'e ever seen. One off-topic question though: Here and in BoBW they put something in his face/on his head. What exactly is that supposed to be?

future bandages.. theyre shiny and are super-complex, we could not hope to understand them.
seriously.. they were meant to be bandages. (the ones from Violations were reuses of the ones from "The Defector"
i wish there were more caps from this ep of Picard with hair.. if they put a good pic of young Picard on the Stargazer novels i bet theyd sell more

And why do they need them? I mean, if someone was injured they were always able to heal the injury instantly. No need for bandages. Allthough I think you are right it doesn't make much sense.

Well, the BOBW bandages (which I quite liked the look of, so there) were on the areas that were borgified, so maybe they were preventing the nanopropes from reforming, or some other funky tech thing.

That's the sign... and it sucks too... I was hoping for something of a ship list.
As for the bandaid... remember this is some years before TNG. So the healing technology might not be as adept at healing the wounds that Picard received during the incident that killed Jack Crusher [did they use the same actor from... "Sins of the Father" (I think that was the ep)]. As for the other incidents of their use... the wound in "Defector" was on a Romulan, and IIRC, Crusher was guessing. During "BoBW" I figured that the nanoprobe inhibitor that was mentioned might be a good answer, but I prefer the excuse of an extremely deep wound.

Yup. Although not that episode. Jack appeared in "Family", "Violations" and "Let's give Wesley a stupid final episode". He was obviously a very good actor, which is why he turned up to lie in a box and be very still in "Violations". It was Emmy-award winning.
