Actually, I think what you saw was a flap of the LCARS panelling from the tactical display hanging down behind the captain. Cause their ship was all broke-ass and stuff. So they were ripping it apart to try and find the problem.
I think you are right. YOu can also see them move a panel to the side below the console (above Varleys right shoulder) in the background behind him as he is chatting with Picard.
On that note...I capped the Lantree and the Yamato, leaving the Hathaway for season 2.
I also noticed in "Natural Selection" Picard talking with Capt Taggert on screen, but I suspect that that is Taggerts ready room so I obviously didnt cap that, but I had to check anyway.
Also, in "Tin Man", was Captain DeSoto on the bridge of the Hood or was he calling from the Ready Room? I would suspect that was the Ready Room too, but I thought I would bring it up.

I could also provide screenshots. Just tell me what you want.

Wow! Deuce Vigos! I was hoping we could do similar stitching with other bridges once the raws start coming in.
Harry, you're certainly in the right direction with this design. However, I think it's a little over-complicated - the tables for the screenshots, for example, won't ALL need the episode and date information as almost all bridges will be from a single episode. However, I do like the idea of captioning at least some of the caps. Perhaps two sets of two columns, each set having a screencap thumbnail and space for a caption? We can include episode information in the caption space if necessary. What I'd like to do is keep the in-context information for each entry separate from the production or behind-the-scenes info.
As for the suggestions of a diagram or something, I think we could try. Going with Harry's idea of putting the critical information in a black space, how about this: let's get permission to use this picture from EAS (gif, ~200k), and pilfer the overhead views from it. We inverse the colours, and put it in the black bar to fill it out. I've whipped a sample up here. I'd prefer the first option rather than using the FF diagram, because it would be easier for us to make up the ones we don't have (Hathaway, Jenol!n, etc.). The FF one does look better, though... Thoughts?
And Spike, you're in. If you've got the DS9 disks, how about starting with that?

According to the script, DeSoto is in his Ready Room.

Since I finished up seasons 1 and 2 of TNG and all I have in season 3 of TNG is the Enteprise-C, I've already gone ahead with season 1 - 3 of DS9, with the Prometheus, Odyssey, Defiant and Saratoga. (I can also get a Runabout...and even the Maqui ships if they are game too.)
I have season 1 and 2 of Voyager as well. So I can get Voyager and Chakotays ship and the Yellowstone (if necessary).
Perhaps a roster of what has been capped might help this along?

Mark, Harry, PM me your emails and I'll give you the ftp info. Then you can at least start uploading stuff now, although it might be best to wait until everything is ready before unveiling it, that way you get a greater impact. 8)

Ah well, then I'll do the Norkova. And in the meantime you can assign me a new bridge.

Spike, why don't you hit up the latter seasons of DS9 and/or Generations if you have the DVDs? There's the Sau Paulo, Ross's ship in the finale, and the Lakota. And if Harry's going to be gone for three weeks, maybe he can shunt over some of the latter TNG seasons at his discretion.
Runabout? I guess it qualifies as a starship...Maybe we should, since there are two major incarnations to think of (discounting for now the chair changes, of which there are several).
I've been looking over FG's first batch of pics, which are fantastic. I'm guessing a reasonable top file size is around ~50kb for screencaps? Most of these are ~40 or less. Look how pretty!

Ok, done (Norkova, Enterprise-B and D from Generations, Sao Paulo, Ross's ship, and Lakota.
What next? Maybe Excelsior and Enterprise-A from TUC and the Xhosa?

What about the Valiant, and the Enterprise (Trials and Tribble-ations)?
Was the Malinche bridge shown at any point or was it just with the holo-communicator ring?
If anyone else wants, the Enterprise-D they can run with that. I have all of the above I have mentioned, but Im having player/PowerDVD problems and can't get TNG season 1 disc 1 to work.

Crimony, this stuff is coming in fast. I thought I'd be in the minority in having today off, Canada Day and all.
Xhosa is to TOS Starfleet as Norkova is to TNG Starfleet, so I guess it qualifies. Sure! Spike, might as well work through movies 4-6 then. I think Boh has 1-3 covered.
And Jason, that is the Lantree. Poor old guys. The Malinche was never shown, but the Valiant is probably due a cursory cap or two - it's exactly the same as Defiant, except some parts are painted red. Sau Paulo is physically different and thus higher up.
Note to all that we're probably going to end up with 10-12 caps per ship, if the set is fully represented. viewscreen sets will probably be 4-6 caps, tops.
I'll make a post in a minute that'll sum up what we've got so far...
