I was having trouble with the above weapons image and didn't fully like the way it came out. I re-posted a new one in its place. It might be more crispy. Let me know. Bashir

Lol I was only joking mate; you didn't need to go to all of the trouble of making a new weapon. But then again, this is a perfect opportunity...not that we Romulans don't already know everything about such feeble Klingon weaponry.

I actually didn't make a new weapon. I just built the inner workings and then made the outer casing clear. If I return the outer casing to its previous state, it is the original disruptor again. Now tell me all of your Romulan Secrets.

For betraying klingon secrets you are now an official enemy of the empire. However the honorable magistrate won't ignore your hard work in the past, so the penalty of death has been commuted. You will work on the dilithium mines of the penal colony Rura Penthe for the remainder of you life. But great work a always.

Hm, if by play Supremacy you mean mine Dilithium, then yes, you will play a lot of Supremacy.

Check the new image above (I improved it). On another note - My disappearance may have something to do with the number 31.

25% more posts needed mate. 250 posts for a Lieutenant. Since you're the only Records Officer to my knowledge, I gave the Records Officer rank 2 pips. You'll get an additional half a pip when you hit Lieutenant Commander. I can't manually set up rank images, or I would have done it a long time ago. The images could do with some cleaning up, and it would be nice to have some unique ones too, like some spanners for the engineers or something. You need ftp access and I've not got the programs to do that anymore. Plus I forgot the login credentials for the server anyway lol.

I don't actually need them anyway mate. All I need is access to the admin panel, and that just requires I re-enter my normal account credentials, so not a problem. If I wanted ftp access again all I have to do is ask Jigalypuff since he owns these forums. Which reminds me, he still hasn't updated phpbb. I reminded him 2 months ago, tut. Jig, i'm sending you another PM...

You know I sent Jig that question about the title under the images "Image viewed X times" to find out if it was counting right click downloads or just the number of times someone went past it. Never got an answer. I wonder if he is busy and hasn't been on line at the site lately. Thanks for the Pips Is there a version with borders? Gotta get to 250, gotta get to 250, gotta get....

Yeah, that's my alien from STO. Isn't he just a great lil' alien? I checked and Jig was last online 3 days ago, so he is visiting at least semi-regularly. Last i heard though he was getting swamped by his job, so he's probably just too busy to actually reply to messages and just visits to make sure the forums are running ok.

Hey Bashir, Why not start working on new levels of technology that offers Dafedz in his database?
Sociology Economics Planetary Science

I have been collecting image ideas for these three areas. They are not easy since they are not technical (with the possible exception of planetary science). Any suggestions for how to depict each of the three?

Planetary science, a models of this http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news ... re_big.jpg with a satellite or something like that. Economy, a bar of gold pressed latinum with something like this in the background http://www.athlonelite.com/wp-content/u ... conomy.jpg just rising and without the continents. Sociology, no idea.

Sociology Social Progress First I think of Confucianism in early China. Here is a system of both rank and privilege but also tempered with responsibility. The Chinese refined the structure with the addition of legalisms blah blah blah. For an image I would think a place like a 24th century L'Avenue des Champs Elysées but add in a court house and government office. Some modern architecture, open public mall with retail, security, families and a lot of people should do the job. (All that in low res?) If it will not all fit then a few symbols like the scales of blind justice, torch of freedom, stylized family, books, flags, symbols of rank or office and such.

Economy: For our needs I would suggest a space going freighter to stand for interstellar trade. We could use one of our Transport ship designs.

Yes of course, good idea for the beginning. i think The Cardassian Freighter Toran class We could also add a safe door of a bank.

Kenneth.... my friend, I knew you had a good sense of humor but... you've outdone yourself. Hehe Low res indeed... I appreciate all the suggestions and will get right on it. I was wondering. Can all these images be .gif and animate in the program? Just imagine. Rotating molecules, Glowing energy research, animated computer screen, pulsing warp cores, working construction arms, weapons that start off opaque and then go clearer so you can see the inner secrets. Add to that, a planet that terraforms before your eyes, a bank vault that opens to reveal gold pressed latinum inside (or a freighter unloading at a space dock) and finally, something sociological that does something. Maybe one mask that goes from smile to frown or a face that morphs from human to Cardassian to Romulan to Klingon to Matress to Gorn. Hey, we animate the solar systems right? BTW Matress, I'm over 250 posts

Ten steps ahead of you mate. I tried putting an animation in the game right after the May 2009 update. It simply showed up blank ingame. So no, the game doesn't support animated structure or ship images. The way the game animates systems is totally different to a .gif animation as well mate. .gifs simply display a series of images inside a single file, whilst the game doe sit in two different ways: for the planets, it takes one image, wraps it around a sphere, then constantly rotates the still image over the sphere so it looks like it is animated; and for the stars, it plays four separate image files, so it's like a .gif, but isn't. Note that the game does support .gif images, but only if they remain un-animated.

According Dafedz, sociology includes -Law & Justice (idea: the justice image) -Culture (idea: the culture image) -Medical (idea: the medical image) -Exo-Linguistics (idea: the books image)(In the Star trek "Undiscovered Country" movie, Uhura used books for translate and talk the Klingon language) All located around the triangle De-colonialism for the politicians & colonists (Sociology2)

According Dafedz, planetary sciences includes -Hydrology (idea: the hydrology image)(Good idea about this technology, Dafedz, Its use allows irrigation, networks of pipes for the supply of cities(growth rate), but also be used for plants hydraulic systems and the medical services. -Climate Control (idea: the Climat control image) -Refinement (idea: the Refinement image) -Mutagenics (idea: the Mutagenics image)(Mutagenics can transform previously barren and desiccated environments to crop-yielding fertile land.)
All located around the Geothermal Science (the Geotherm image)
