He he he, great pics!

I should have a few myself to post at some point, I've been collecting Akira class pics for about a month now for this :D

I'm planning to do a nice wallpaper for you all for "Star Trek: Treks" Season 1

Nice work with the ship designation Four Lights. However, shouldn't there be a letter (perhaps C or D) at the end since this isn't the first Tiberius?  I discovered on the timeline posted yesterday that there has already been a ship with the same name.  It completed 3 five-year missions!  Look at years 2227-2243:  http://www.pjfarmer.com/woldnewton/Trek.pdf

What do you think Keozen?

Traditionally the only ship in the fleet that bears a letter suffix is the Enterprise (flagship of the fleet).

All other ships just get renamed after their predecessors (for example the USS Hood has been mentioned in both TOS and TNG but has always been the plain USS Hood despite the two mentions being totally different ships). There have been a few exceptions to this rule (usually in the novels) but they usually bear particular special "circumstances".

I see now.  Sounds good to me.
