No Problem.Well Madman, looks like your speculations on the direction the Narada goes was the correct one. The spikes are indeed the front of the ship. While I personally think it's better the other way around, I'm sorry I threw you off.

One thing, though... I think the back end of the ship changed shape a few times. When we see it go to warp, the back end looks like an engine, and it's shaped more like I had in in a previous version. But, sometimes, it looks like it has a "head". I'm going to wait until I can make some screencaps.
