[Valka]

That's beautiful!

[Buster's Uncle]

The starfield was the toughest part.

[Geo]

Again?

Well, it paid of. It is a beautiful starscape.

[Buster's Uncle]

Again.  The only practical way to make it work turned out to be starting over.

[Valjiir1]

I didn't need to sleep, anyway...

Oh, that's just lovely!  Thank you so much!

[Buster's Uncle]

I think it needs a second draft.  The girls drifting in in synch with the main star layer takes too long, and doesn't really work.  Should fade them in in place like the logo, I think.  Jiila should be in her more day-to-day hair, and perhaps the girls should be flanked by at least Spock and Sulu.

I saved the elements separately, so another go is doable without being a hellish amount of work.  Thoughts?  I'd need some more twickies if we go with that, or headshots of some sort.

[Geo]

Thoughts?

If their consorts join them, let them come in from the other side, and flank their partner in the end. That may mean Sulu and Spock need sufficient open space between them if they come in as one 'item' so there's space for Valjiir in the middle, or not if you let them come in separately.

And why not beaming the whole party aboard when they're assembled?

[Buster's Uncle]

A beaming effect is very doable.

I think it best to have all the heads stationary, though.

[Valka]

Well, I could possibly make a more "everyday Jilla" as a starting point, but the site I used doesn't have any way to do Spock and Sulu. It does have male templates, but I'm not at all confident I could figure out anything that would resemble Sulu, let alone Spock.

I did Ruth, Jilla, Uhura, and Daffy on the Zwinky site, if that helps.

[Buster's Uncle]

That helps.  Mylochka seems to vaguely agree with my ideas, and I'd like to kick it around with Cher before I do anything else.  Everyday Jilla would be great - worth doing for itself, anyway.

[Buster's Uncle]

...Two zwinky men with the closest hair you can manage could probably be tweaked into what we need.  Mylochka mentioned a willingness to alter uniforms onto some  zwinkies..

[Valka]

I'll play around a bit and see what happens. It might take awhile, though, because I've registered for Camp NaNoWriMo (month-long writing competition that runs throughout April), and it starts tonight at one second past midnight.

Some of the Zwinky outfits cost points, which are bought with real money. I've got a decent wardrobe built up for "female hotties" but hardly anything for the guys.

[Buster's Uncle]

Plain & black or whatever is fine.

[Valjiir1]

I like all the suggestions so far.  The beaming our four hero(ine)s in sounds the coolest to me.  And yeah, an everyday Jilla would be preferable.  I'm perfectly confident in Mylochka's ability at tweaking whatever Valka comes up with.  Thanks a lot for putting so much time into this, guys.  It really brightens my mood (which needs serious brightening, BTW).

[Buster's Uncle]

You do good work that means a lot to people.
