Blue Warp Nacelles?

[Outpost4]

Hey, NCC-1701, I've made progress! Using a different program, Ulead GIF Animator, I was able to come up with three different ways to make new animations within 6 KB in size of yours. Here's one below I did. It looks just like yours. This old dog can learn a new trick.
Thanks again for your help. It was invaluable. I take that back. It did have a price: $49.95 for the new program.

^ Looks very good! BTW, what's the original video source? Your TOS remastered set?

And now enter the TOS avatar contest.

Thanks. You are close. I used the TrekCore HD DVD screen caps for Space Seed (I did use one screen cap from Ariane's HD caps). I found eight good nacelle grabs that I could crop, shape, blend and massage to fit inside of one master nacelle. That gave me nine different nacelle pics. I faded between the nine shots to create a total of twenty-seven frames in the animation.

And now enter the TOS avatar contest.

I've been too busy making sombrero themed things. You notice the TOS caption contest didn't get changed out today, either.

You should also go back and check out my Kor bandito. I worked on that a little more, not that anyone would care but me. The pistol is finally right. Bonus points for anyone who can tell me where I grabbed that from.

In just a hair over a month (the OP was at 09:06 PM on May 21 2008.) Awesome!

(Massive kudos to Nerys Myk for the original genius PhotoShop in this thread: http://trekbbs.com/showpost.php?p=1762571&postcount=27)

Heheh. That's great

I spotted this over in the "Trekmovie's starship round-up [SPOILERS]" thread:

^If Bill and Ted don't have at least one cameo I shall declare this a false and despicable depiction of Time Travel!

Dammit! Stop with the spoilers. I have it on good authority from the guy who's sister is the dog-walker for JJ Abrams that the sequel is where TOS time-travellers Bill and Ted try to thwart a plot by TNG time-travellers Jay and Silent Bob to steal all the sombreros from Federation starships. Hilarity and action ensues.

Someone with some time on their hands could get crazy with that.

I feel very honored by your quote... I think it really would be awesome!
Also see my earlier request for an avatar... still hoping u PhotoShoppers can help.

The Sombrerodock model went for $125,000 at the Christie's Auction.

How did they fit it in a crate?

By using cool special effects.

They're making fun of us again in the Misc forum.

 

[M'Sharak]

Indeed?

 

[B.J.]

Perhaps point out that even T'Bonz has joined in the fun?

Done.

You weren't around

But if you want to add anything to the dear 'nana, feel free!!

I was already working on it. Can't resist a challenge.

What's a dance without a little music?

Fantastic!!! Feel free to fiddle more, if you're so inclined Great maracas!

How about a goatee?

THIS IS FUCKING INCREDIBLE!!!
