Yep, the first one is rather pretty... Funny, though, I don't match it to Phillip's "ramblings". Ah well.

Used the pics that we found to redo the upper section of the picture... Your thoughts:)

"Drool" springs to mind, or rather leaks out of it. That is an excellent basis. But that bit of the picture is meant to represent the view that the 'warp sensor' of the warp drive can see and from which it makes its calculations for a, erm, well calculated warp drive. One concept that has come up repeatedly is that of 'voids' in the picture that the sensors can see, a result of the upwelling of the deeper warp into the shallow warp...

When describing the warp this is kinda the image I had in mind, but coloured like a plasma ball, but also a bit x-ray like. When I say the first image, I thought ‘that’s it!’.

So do you mean that the 'darker' areas of the picture are deeper parts of the warp. Thus should they lack any colour at all?
Any thoughts on the visibility of the Gellar field when someone is inside?

Just to see what I could do, I did these this morning. I have sharpened the images and redefined some of the currents to make them more consistent. There are currently 4 colours The observant may notice the colours of the 'principle' Chaos Gods has been used. This is entirely coincidental

These are pretty cool, but I really don't think there should be any black spots in the warp, except for where there is a void (i.e. the soul of a pariah). Perhaps you could try to put these four pictures on top of eachother, to cover all the black parts and create a multi-colour inferno, like the fluff describes it?

A multicoloured version. This took a bit of doing to get the layers together, maybe someone with Photoshop could do better? I must admit this is not my favourite:O) CELS, the dark areas were references to Kage's blackspots on the 'warp radar', where it can't detect or discern the nature of the warp at that point. Anyhow those areas are not totally black, but are effective considering what I was working with.

You can almost see the roller coaster ride ahead! ;D
Yep looking good, but I quite like the thinner whisps being there (just to temp those reckless navigators!) and fewer black holes.

These are pretty cool, but I really don't think there should be any black spots in the warp... On that I agree with one caveat... There are no 'black spots' in the Navigators-eye view (the elliptical image), but there are on the 'calculated jump view' (the rhomboidal one).

Perhaps the new ones could be the calculated (especially the last one), and the original the navigator view?

Well, the blank spots are meant to be represent 'upwellings' or whatever that the sensor just cannot see... So while that might contain blanks the Navigator view doesn't.
