After several painstaking minutes, I was able to create a fully-vectored rendition of the Star Trek 2009 Enterprise as rendered by Alain Rivard. It’s a beautiful image and mine is a close approximation. Anyway, I wanted to have something complex to put into my new Windows 8.1 hub template without having to include an image in the project. This is where I ended up. Mostly, I think, because this image is my current desktop background. You want it? Here’s the code. Live long and… you know.
