    Not a fan of the Fed one - The top is the not the prettiest angle of her!

    I put the Fed. one the moment I saw it.

    But I have a question: is it ESD, Luna then Earth?

    I like the Bortas one. I'm not a fan of the fed one but I see that you tried to do something different with that one. Its a nice image but its not not for me.

    But thanks. Its nice to see these from time to time. the Bortas is on my desktop now.

    It looks that way - either that, or ESD and the Odyssey have suddenly appeared in orbit of Coruscant...

    Would it be possible to get some mobile wallpapers as well?

    I see what you did there with the Fed one. It's the Odyssey Patch.

    Love the Fed one...USS Gordon though? Would have been nice to have USS Enterprise or USS Odyssey instead...

    I think it's luna station, moon, and Earth from left to right.

    Nice view!

    I mean, it's cool that you've replicated the patch, but it just looks goofy. I think the fact that ESD is so far below/scaled down that its doors are comically tiny compared to the Odyssey is why.

    Simple solution: The Odessey is a 40km (or whatever number you pick) above ESD. It doesn't have to be departing the dock.

    It's a hidden Flash Gordon reference. Because... it's the U.S.S. Gordon... and the sun is all flashy and lens-flare-y... get it?

    ...No?

    Okay.

    The bortaS is excellent!

    But agree sadly the Odyssey one does not convey the sense of scale correctly. Want one with bortaS perspective!


    Also I would like to take this chance to say that the STO wallpapers are very nice, especially the character art (my favourite is the one with the two dueling women :P)

    Fed one is cool and kinda trippy. Klingon is just plain cool. Rock on art team!

    KDF one is gorgeous !

    Fed one is nice, but as others have said, the top angle isn't the greatest.... It's not as... dynamic as the KDF one I guess ... ?. It's nice, just not great ;)

    Also, thanks very very much for making dual display versions ! That was totally sweet !!! How'd you do it ? Photoshop elements together ? Or take a screenshot using the / command that up sizes the screen shot, and then cropped the image ? I'd like to know ! :D

    Any chance of setting up a wallpaper gallery, like you already have a screenshot gallery? That would reduce my risk of missing gorgeous art like this. Well, the Klingon one, anyway. The Feddie one is artistic, but that's really not that ship's best side. Kinda like photographing Oswald Cobblepot from behind, if you know what I mean.

    Does this mean we're finally going to get engine trails coming from the Odyssey's pylon engine vents?

    First thing to pop in my mind "Odyssey, exiting one section at a time from ESD"

    or

    ESD Eng: "Told ya even trying to back it in, it wont fit".

    Nope only the saucer impulse engine trails. This isn't just me though; a couple of other people I know in-game also say they only have the saucer impulse engine trails showing.

    I also have no pylon engine trails. I thought maybe they were backup engines, like on some of the Star Cruisers that have trail-lless saucer engines...
