Here's a shot across the stern...

Definitely the best Enterprise render I've seen!  If you need some good source material, this has some of the best closeups I've found.  It's only a replica, not the actual filming model but I think you'll see they didn't miss anything. I half expected to see the footprints left by the crew as they walked out to meet V-Ger!

Still sounds fishy to me.
...reminds me of an ATV I saw for sale on the internet once.
...guy never answered my questions, just kept repeating the same vague info... 
He also needed the cash fast as he was "kinda short" yet he offered to pay for insurance and shipping on a 700lbs machine

Just one personal opinion.. about the first pic, red-blue combination looks a bit toonish rather than the macho image it should have. And just wondering what is that red thing sticking out on the top....

It is a model of the GodPhoenix craft from the Japanime "Science Ninja Team Gatchaman" known as "Battle of the Planets" in the U.S. so the colors are correct except for a yellow specular tint I used for the red to give it a "flame" look.
The red thing is one of 3 fins at the back.  ...if you look closely you can see it has a red leading edge with white trailing edge. you can just make out the port fin just to the right of it.

Esc works fine with the other render engines but I get no response when using ART.  Maybe it is just because it's so much more system intensive...

Thanks Claude.
Though I don't usually like to use scripts or add-ons with Anim8or, because I think it's stand-alone, single-file structure is it's best feature, I'll try this as soon as I can.

First I want to say that I think Mr. Glanville has done an excellent job creating such a powerful, free, stand alone modeling tool.
Since it is free, I tend to think of asking for features as looking a gift horse in the mouth. Think of these more as suggestions for turning the gift horse into a race horse. 

1. Target weld for vertices - that way, you wouldn't have to reposition multiple points, and then merge them, and you wouldn't have to worry about repositioning the resulting vertex.

2. Elements only editable for the selected mesh subdivision or spline.  ...If you want to use another mesh as a reference, you could select the mesh to edit and modify it's elements, without accidently modifying elements of the reference mesh.

3. Editable viewport background color - sometimes the current color is too dark or the wrong shade to view certain textures well.

4. My last request would have to do with scaling.  I tend to use the scaling tool as a last resort, because of how it scales in reference to the object's axis, instead of scaling in reference to the selection.  For example, after scaling 4 points, I have to move the points back to their original location.  This makes it difficult to scale accurately because I can not scale them in reference to anything, since they move away from any reference points.
