Set blueprint exchange

What surprises me is that the PRO designers saw fit to include typewriter-like keyboard layouts on their Starfleet console designs.
 
Lots of great additions, thanks for all the work you put into this!

One small suggestion I'd have is to move the three 'ds9 vegas' images from Alien Worlds to the new Experience shuttle folder, as that's the set for the scene with Riker and Geordi shown in the newly added storyboards.

Speaking of The Experience, this site has 12 panoramas of different areas of the place, including inside the rides. I wonder if its possible to save them and add them to the archive alongside the existing panos, I fear that site going offline and these being lost forever.

Yes, the drawing and handwriting style look like Sternbach, but since Jein led the modeling of the 6' and 2' Enterprise-D models for ILM, it would make sense that he had them in his files.
The 3/4 angle image of the deflector is a Probert drawing. I can tell at a glance because his linework and lettering is distinct from Sternbach's, and you can see his signature on the drawing on one of the other photos (as here).
 
@Rekkert Good spot on the DS9 Vegas - I'll move it during the next upload update.

Those panoramas are neat - so far I've only been able to extract a size reduced version of the image. The full size seems to just return "access denied". Not sure how to get round this.

And the layout is not a known configuration as far as I can tell. It starts similar to AZERTY, but then it really goes off the rails.

Might it be worth just reaching out and asking if they could provide a copy for the sake of preserving that bit of history? :)

I remember when that aft Bozeman piece went up for auction. IIRC, the auctioneers didn't know what it was and labeled it some generic "starship filming miniature part" or something. I didn't find out about it until the auction was done and it sold for only about $500 or $600. I so would have gone for it if I had known it was there, as I knew exactly what it was - I had just recently built up an AMT Reliant with a vacuform Bozeman mod kit and the thing was still relatively fresh in my mind. Probably couldn't touch it for under 5 figures anymore, now that everyone knows what it is. :(

The "shuttle pod landing bay miniature" is already archived, it's part of the aft addon for the Bozeman/Soyuz.
Why on earth does it say "talk trek" on it? Isn't that a podcast??
