The Theives Guild logo just needs clovers and horseshoes...I always thought Lucky got that gold via nefarious means.

Done a few more this week, mainly focusing on the ship logos: -
I've also been making an attempt to figure out a map of exactly where the sectors (Blue, Red, Green etc.) begin and end. So far I've found two different maps that appeared onscreen as well as the one on the Security Manual. If anyone knows of any other variations, I'd be very appreciative! Oh and I've also been continuing to dabble with the rank insignias.

You've been busy! I'm not sure what all those insignias mean, but they look good. Odd looking star they used on them, though.
As for the map, I can't say any of them look quite right to me, but I assume you're just cataloging the variations for the wiki? I found one here that looks similar to the "Signs & Portents" one, but not quite. Not sure where that one came from. There's another here (scroll down), but it looks fan-made, and honestly looks even more wrong to me. Since you're familiar with the wiki, I assume you've seen this screencap too? One last map I found looks to be made for an RPG, but actually makes the most sense out of all of them to me. It's on this page, just scroll to the bottom and download the zipped PDF.

I should probably say that the insignia inside the grey boxes are my own conjecture, just to fill in the gaps.
For now I'm cataloguing the "official" versions; I do have my own particular version of what I think it should really be, but I'd rather not release that until I'm done collating data and have a complete idea.
There are a few complications, mainly to do with the grey, brown and yellow sectors. With Grey sector, on the graphics it has a habit of either disappearing entirely, switching places with brown or being relegated to the zero-G sections, which contradicts "Grey 17 is Missing" among others where Grey sector (or at least part of it) has gravity and thus must be in the carousel. I think part of the brown/grey confusion stems from the cramped industrial nature of both areas, though Brown sector has been seen to contain businesses, hotels and an open marketplace. Brown sector, aside from switching with Grey half the time, keeps being refereed to as being synonymous with Downbelow, though there have been several instances where a "Downbelow" area has been seen to be in other sectors. Yellow sector is something else entierly, in that it's never mentioned on screen (as far as I can tell) and the background info seems to consistently have it encompassing the fusion reactor and sometimes the support structure, all the way down to the forward cargo stabilisers. Either way, strictly a zero-G area, however, in 'TKO', the Mutai and the surrounding area has yellow sector markings, which is a bit of a problem.

Just two more this time. The Vorlon one might not look like much but it was a complete bugger getting all the tendrils right. I've got the Starfury squad patches done, I just need to figure out which "wing" patch each one corresponds to.

All ship logos this time: - It can be tough finding good reference for these things! Still have the Heracles, Hermes, Cortez, Apollo, Churchill, Excalibur and Gideon's old Explorer on the "to-do" list, with a question mark next to the Cadmus & Persephone.

Cool! Where'd you get the Technomage sigil from?

Ohh. That's fired up some very dormant grey cells! Nice.

Crusade. It was on one of the data screen in 'Well of Forever', when they were linking up Galen's ship with the Excalibur's computer, IIRC.
Note for the trivia inclined: The Sigma logos were worn by Ivanova's brother in the prequel movie and if you watch the delete scenes from 'Sleeping in Light' you can see it on display in General Ivanova's office (along with her old Starfury helmet, a statue of Shokalla and Marcus's old Denn'bok - originally intended for Sakai.)

BURN THE HERETIC!!!!!
Though I wouldn't mind seeing the show get the TOS Remastered treatment. Even though it's so recent a show, the early CGI is rather... primitive, to say the least. Compare "Midnight on the Firing Line" to "In the Beginning" (or heck, the "Lost Tales" DVD), and the changes are quite startling.
