A troll?

Well, more under, I suppose.

I'm not really pissy...just ill. And yes, I DID get it from a troll. A hairy annoying Chief Wiggum-wannabe troll at work.

Mark: on Gaia, Tac I & II are flanking the viewscreen, the forwardmost ("southernmost?") stations. As for Akureyri, the module design choice was partly based on the parts I used for the model. The reason for two heads? There's only one toilet in each room. Who wants to wait to piss?

Ahh, there they are.. Well, forgive me for saying so, but I couldn't make out the handwritten numbers.

[duck]

The tac officers may not get a very good view of the screen, though... But I like the idea of consoles flanking the main viewer like that. A similar thing is seen in the first design pass or two on the E-E bridge. Consider me inspired.

Wow, you guys have some great ideas in here. With a ruler, compass, lettering guide, (or a CAD program), these could be drafted up very nicely.

Could anyone be kind enough to tell stupid little me how to load images on here? I'd like to get some of my stuff looked over by you people - as you seem to know your way around a starship, whereas my parents and friends haven't a clue. Thanks!

Go here:
http://flareupload.hypermart.net/psupload.htm

Browse your hard drive for the pic you want to upload, select it, and hit "Upload". You should be taken to the Parent Dir. Copy the URL of your image and paste it into your post. At least that's how I do it, but I'm sort of backwards, so someone may be able to tell you how to actually get the pic to show up in the thread...

I'll try and get some of my bridges in here.

Inspired by Antag, I've redrawn your science bridge, Mark.

Stop it! You're killing me!

Thanks to Fabrux as well. Now, would anyone want to redo the Transport and Escort bridges? We'd be in the money then.

And Fabrux, if you ASDB guys would like to use any of this stuff for your ships, I'd be willing to let 'em go.

Oh sure, Fabrux, put your name on the redrawn version for the credit!
*curses at himself*
I have to say, the Explorer2 bridge was a pain in the ass to redraw. Not that it was that difficult, but I use PhotoDeluxe (a cheap version of Photoshop), and it doesn't provide a toolbar to quickly switch the tools like in photoshop.

Anyways, nice job, Fabrux. And what of this ASDB thing I heard mentioned?

I see. Okay, I thought you were referring to the ASDB formerly created by TNO. I've been gone from the forums, and TNO for months, and I thought that the ASDB I was once part of may have taken off. Apparently not.

Nice work Fabrux, though I think your didn't label the master situation display in the back.

There's no MSD on the escort bridge. At least, there wasn't one labelled in the original drawing.
