In one treatment, the alien was to come along and take Bowman by the hand. It was going to be a towering insect-like creature - rather light and vaporous. One logical way to do this would have been to shoot the creature with a variable anamorphic lens to elongate the image onto film. With such a lens, you can squeeze the image from side to side and from top to bottom, and you can increase or decrease the ratio of the squeeze. Then, by projecting that squeezed image onto a mirror positioned in front of Bowman at an angle 45 degrees to the camera, we could have made the alien appeared to be standing right next to him, and it would all have been on the original negative. Quite traditional, really - the technique goes back to the stage arts.

rape is always creepy in fantasy because even if its just for ~*dramatic effect*~ its always mixed in with weird sex and author self-inserts.

An open letter to everyone from Jenny:

Hey guys, many of you have noticed I'm not open to suggestion and the rather daily onslaught of "you need to change this" that I have been getting. You may have also noticed that I finally have snapped a bit with regards to the fact that between answering the same two questions over and over (Deflector Dishes and updates) I'm starting to get a little miffed. SO I thought i would share an example of what you don't see that goes on and I am hhit with at least 40 or so times a day, maybe you'll understand a bit more after reading this. This is one of the cleaner ones I have gotten recently, but still indicative of the sort of stuff i'm forced to endure, just to bring some artwork to the page.

__________________________________

Dear Girl who makes the pictures,

Hey there, you know there are those of us MEN that think that it was a mistake that Doug asked a WOMAN to make the renders for this page. I mean look at your ship's. You have taken rugged Starfleet designs and girlified them with what I would consider frilly and chikie crap that has no place in the Trek universe, what's next pink starships?

Also you suck at modeling and you suck at rendering. I may only be a hobbyist but I can tell that you haven't the first clue what you are doing. First off you need to change all of your designs, take the Daedalus for instance. There is a design for the ship, you ruined it completely and turned it into some girly design that has no resemblance to the original. Your Romulan ships look more like they belong carrying batons and firing confetti than warships, and quite frankly the NX Refit looked better before you changed the surfacing, now it looks like it was some girl's bathroom tile.

Point of the matter is, you need to step aside, or I will make you step aside, yes you heard me correctly I will MAKE YOU. Girls can't fight MEN, we are stronger, and the dominant species on the planet, and there's no place for a little wannabe Trekkieslut who just probably wants to see how many guys will ask her out, in the quest for more Trek on TV.

So why don't you go back to wearing Slave Leia outfits and whoring yourself out to horny nerd guys who don't' know the difference between a phaser and a disruptor, and leave the Star Trek stuff to the MEN that know what they are doing. And remember this woman, there are a lot more of us MEN that know the timeline and the canon than you do and we will at some point get sick of you trying to ram stuff down our throats that makes no sense but in the mind of some giggling schoolgirl that probably started to do this sort of crap, and yes your stuff is crap, to prove some strange feminist agenda that has no place here.

gently caress off bitch, and leave the Trek to the MEN, go back to cooking and making me a sammich, that's where whores like you belong.

Thank you for your time, and I hope that you take my warning to heart, we will hunt you down, we will make sure you are driven off our page, and we will make sure you are driven back to the kitchen. Remember a woman's job is to cook, clean and have children, not design and build starships.

A concerned Star Trek Fan that thinks whores have no place dictating Trekdom.

Now, please tell me, why I shouldn't be put off when I get messages thrown at me like this? Why shouldn't my feelings be hurt every time someone decides they think that they want me to change the position of something or come at me about some stupid thing like "In so and so book it says" well honestly, I can't take this much more and I would appreciate it if people could remember, you want me to treat every one of you with some modicom of decorum, the same goes for how I get treated, I am human too, with emotions and feelings and right now they are very very hurt by the increasing number of people on this page that think that I somehow am a robot that can just be ordered around..

Please think about this a little bit, I am very very hurt right now by the nasty comments, on something I was doign for fun to try and make things a little more enjoyable...

Thanks for listening - Jenny

A thought: can the MLP people not immediately message moderators to see if they can resurrect the pony thread now that the child rapist moderator is gone? I'm glad to see the bronies have their priorities in order.
