As a work of art I would say the top one but for our needs the bottom one is easier to understand in the first 0.3425 seconds you are looking at it. They will not take up much room on the UI so I would say keep it simple to make it work.

I think it would be better if you change human hand to another color (green, brown,etc), blue one is excellent it looks like is andorian.

Well I used this color of the hand because most of the species have this color of the skin, but I could give it a greenish color like the Vulcans.

Also I've made this one with the cargo bay and the replicator but without the planets, but as you said keep it simple and I agree that the one with only the replicator added is the best one.

Don't forget you can't use photos or movie and shows cuts, i liked it more with planets, otherwise nice just change the color of the hand

Now with slight greenish hand, subtle but noticable.

You now have the job of selecting the best version of the picture, just notify me which one you choose.

I like the newest one with the greenish hands. I'll upload it to Sharepoint for you.

Are the Anti empire speech and the Pro empire pics good, because they are not on sharepoint, if they are not good enough then I will start making new ones.

It was nothing more than an oversight on my part. They're uploading as I type this.

Oh, sorry for the inconvinience.

Nah it wasn't an inconvenience. It didn't even take a minute to complete the upload, and it was something I should've already done afterall...

What about this as a alternate to the religious holiday?

At the center of the planet, I would see a person or a priest praying but it should not forget the emblems of other empires.

This are various religius emblems and no one could know that they are all from earth, unless they check it, and I doubt that anyone will do that.

I really like concept of image. What I don't like is Holy Cross, David's star and other easily reconisable earth religious symbols (marked rose).Throw them away and keep the rest.
Though you could use some better planet images this one is pretty blurry. I have nice one which could be used.

Ok, send me the images of the planets. Or do you mean the one with the shield?

Thanks Vjeko i forgot this one is M-ular shield. Choose between (which suits you the most):

Well I negated the shield effect, but thanks for the planets they will be excellent for future pics.
Here are the new pics.

Wow, brilliant idea for a concept image. I agree that we need to replace Mike's one to maintain the size conventions. I've already cropped down his one to the standard, but its brutalised the image. A fresh new one is exactly what the doctor ordered.

I personally prefer the image without the temple on it. I think it's better to keep it simple and the temple just makes it look too busy. I would also question the top-left (Hindi) icon and the top-right (Japanese pagoda thing) icon as being too recognisable as well. You could either simply remove those images and increase the space between the remaining images, or replace them with some new "alien" religion images.

Here is the new version:

Now look at your first image, change is drastic, that is quality that we want in the game.

Much better!

Sharepointed.

OMG

I did weapon misfire like the lab is in the desert (logical if you think about it), so don't ask me why there is no other buildings, I've also put it in a crater like the explosion ceated a crater (also logical if you think about it)

Looks good. I guess all you need are a few bodies getting thrown into the air. Just kidding, it is very nice.

In the random events I didn't see a event like The Doomsday Machine (Planet Killer) or the Encounter with the "First Federation" (The Corbomite Maneuver) and things like that, I really wanted to do pics for them.

The Doomsday Device is going to be a model since it's a combat event. We're going to give the model no shields but thousands and thousands of hit points. It therefore won't be displayed as one of the other random events, or at least isn't with the current system.





The First Federation aren't in my randoms though. I admit that I'd forgotten about Balok and Fesarius.

Anyone have ideas on what we could do for the First Federation as a random? Nothing in particular happened in that episode that I can think of that could be translated into a logical random event. They've only been vaguely mentioned once since the Corbomite Maneuver episode according to Memory Alpha, and fighting them as a combat random doesn't seem to do them justice. Plus I think we've got enough models in the game as it is. I imagien Kenneth will agree.

...

Matress likes the explosion. Explosions are good. Muaha...

Sharepointed.

I hate to say that... I have to speak up for my opinion on this.

Those pictures are not good or low quality.

Why take those poor quality photos into Supremacy?

Low quality? In what way? I think they're fantastic quality. What about them don't you like?

Oh well... I realize that they're just amateur and couldn't afford to hire a professional artist. I am trying to forgive. I personally prefer professional ones because of aesthetic.

At least we got BOTF 2, so I am okay with all amateur pictures.

We are always looking for quality and especially original work. If you have some we can use we would be thankful for it.
