    comparison image

    I was just tinkering and came up with this comparison image showing a Trek uniforn along with a few other SF uniforms. See if you can guess what they'r from. Not all are TV shows.

    I found it interesting that when I was searching Google Images for pictures to modify and for research, how many were my images, but on other sites. If you see a uniform image based on the ST Magazine format with a head, it's probably mine. I don't like showing headless bodies for some reason. The first time I saw it done was on Spikes's ST site, where I saw an image I had cobbled together showing the cold weather parks thet Odo and Quark used while climbing the mountain in DS9's The Ascent. I find it amusing and have learned to be pleased that people find the images worth reusing.

    I think the 3rd one is Starship Troopers. (I don't recall SAAB being that colourful!)

    Here's a chance to get 'em back. I've added four more uniforms to the image. Three are easy, the other not so much.

    OK, so is that Stargate Command space uniform (less certain of that one, have a feeling it might actually be Space Abpove and Beyond for real this time...), Imperial Navy, Rebel Alliance X-Wing pilot and Battlestar Galactica...

    Edit. OK. Definately Space Above and Beyond... But had to google it to make sure

    It is NOW. At first there were only the first 5 figures. I just added the last 4.

    ...And while I'm on a roll, I've added yet three more. These ones are more difficult.

    I didn't read Harrington either; I just remember the uniform on the cover.

    I'll give credit where credit is due...I really had no idea what #5 was...

    Not the Blakes7 Federation trooper. Although I may have to admit defeat on the 2 seemingly generic black tunics... Part of me wants to call Section 31 or Psi Corps (But I can't see the corps badge so know its not)...

    The last image has been changed to the alternate colour scheme which MAY be more recognisable.
