Description Puffinstudios asked me to run off some backgrounds for him to use in his Star Trek: Constellation comic series- which can be found in his gallery:

Once I had them done, I decided to release them for everyone else to use- knowing that everyone will use them in their own way. These are "Background plates"- shots of empty sets.
You'll find the following all in jpg format:
the TMP Corridor: 5 pic
the TMP transporter room: 7 pics
The TMP Engine room: 5 pics

I know in some cases- I've done this myself- it's easier on the system to load a picture background and then position your "actors" in front of it- like real life "Blue screen", where the actors are filemed in front of a blue screen and the background's added later.

Exactly. Easier on the system, and the finances.

Well, since we're talking free models in the case of Star Trek, money's not really an issue. But if you've got a scene that calls for 20 characters, then a picture background will cut down on the size of the scene file.

That's true, too. Picture backgrounds are great for a lot of scenes like that, as well as if you have a large set, but are only going to put 1 or 2 people in it, like for a closeup shot, or something.
