That is most certainly okay! LOL! Thank you!
I may take that advice. It's just that, fifteen years later, I still find myself pining for the clean elegance of the Softimage|XSI interface.
Well, I don't know that I can do anything about that. However, you might want to try Bforartists. Blender for Artists has a different user interface, at least a little different.

Ha! I'm so used to Right Click, I'll have to change it to the old Blender Normal!
Here are a few shots from my imitation of the opening shot for The Enterprise Incident using the tutorial Enterprise.

Sorry, you can't claim screenshots of the opening sequence as your own work.
That is why he called it an "imitation". 
I‘m sure @Scribble was merely joking, commenting on the fact that @scifieric‘s results look so close to the original.That is why he called it an "imitation".
Which they absolutely do. Bravo, @scifieric!

Precisely.

Holy cow! THANK YOU, guys! You have no idea how great that makes me feel!Precisely.
Honestly, your work looks a million times better than the effects on TOS-R. I love the model that you built and how you are approaching the recreation of the original effects work, but the detail I absolutely love the most is that you actually recreated how the stars looked in the original show! TOS-R's starfields were always a little too bland for me. I prefer the colorful stars of the original.
Ah yes, apologies. I completely missed the subtext you put in your original post. Sleep deprivation does odd things to cognitive perception.Precisely.

NP.
Thank you very kindly for the compliment! I truly appreciate it!
I don't know if you've ever seen Tallguy's work, but he puts me to shame! He puts the professionals to shame!

That's his USS Enterprise in Blender 3D. You would think it was a pristine screen capture from the original film!
Thank you, Bill! One of these days, I hope to get as good as you were years ago. (You keep getting better, and I'll NEVER catch up!)
The Studio bit was to show how effects WERE done, plus, it's been something that I've done as an image a couple of times over the years: make a render that looks like the original model in front of a blue screen. I don't know why, but that always makes me happy. I did the first one in TrueSpace and it was probably the image that got me the most comments until that time.
Hang on, let's see if I can find one: https://www.deviantart.com/scifieric/art/Enterprise-Blue-Screen-58775771
I honestly don't think I can hold a candle to your work, but I'll try my best!
Danged subtext! LOL! When I'm tired, I can't remember names. Has always been a problem for me, whatever you are called. LOL!Ah yes, apologies. I completely missed the subtext you put in your original post. Sleep deprivation does odd things to cognitive perception.
That's what I like to see! Everyone getting along!NP.

I somehow do prefer the blue. Standing side by side with the second one makes it look too yellowed and off. An optical illusion of complementary colors, obviously, but still quit's noticeable.
