Star Trek Online Orthos

Does anyone have orthos for:

Excalibur Class
Exeter Class
Constitution Class: original, refit
D7 tv
Star Fleet shuttlecraft TOS tv
Space Station K-7
 
Ooooh! I REALLY like the Magellan!

What's an ortho, and what does it have to do with Star Trek Online? Or am I getting the wrong end of the stick here?

Orthos are short for orthographic diagrams or schematics, generally showing between 4 and 6 non-perspective-distorted views of a particular vessel giving a fairly comprehensive idea of its configuration. These usually include at least one side view (provided the ship is not asymmetrical), a front view, rear view, top and (sometimes) bottom views.

An Ortho is an image of the ship from every direction - both sides, top, bottom, front, back.

Unfortunatly I haven't done this for any of the ships in STO, althought I thought someone had over on the STO forum.
 
Can you even generate orthos in-game? I don't think the camera can be set to not show perspective.
