/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

absolutely beautiful! man I wish Star Trek would do designs like this again instead of "How can we redesign the Constitution Class for the umpteenth time?"
NCC-1701 (refit) and A are my favorite designs of all time. The original shape with the refit's nacelle design just looks so sleek without being too over the top. I don't like the newer ships after TNG: they look overly scifi'd.
oh don't get me wrong I absolutely love the refit and A. totally. I just don't want to see them...again...on "new" stuff ala the Enterprise-G.
And you're right about the ships post TNG. They went from "we love exploring" to "we gotta fight the dominion and the borg and our ships need to look the part" Just give me more of the curvy yet powerful looking designs from TNG again. And I mean sure it's not like there were many in TNG, hell the Nebula was just a Galaxy with no neck and an upsidedown stardrive but god dammit I liked it.
Love me a Miranda or Nebula class. I just think they should go faster than they do because double the nacelles
I do like the JJ Abrams Enterprise. Guilty pleasure.
The hot rod look on the front of the nacells and matching lower decks speak to design awareness. Just curvy enough without making it unrecognizable.

I loved the aesthetics of those films. The ship, the uniforms, and the Klingons. And Chris Pine clearly loves the role.
Karl Urban is also great
