In the Motion picture when the ship is subwarp it is orange, check in drydock, and inside v'ger. When it is in warp it is blue. After ST II it was blue all the time.
I have been trying to figure out these textures in lightwave...and trying to figure out Terragen 2...last night i had it rendering for 11+ hours and when it finished i hit the render button instead of save, man I was PISSED! so I set it all down for a while.
I've done that too, but, fortunately, not on a 11+ hour render. It's a good idea to step away for a little bit and do something else. It helps clear the mind.

Had to take a break from my rant on those bozos in congress, thanks for putting something up!
