Beautiful but ImpracticalJune 5, 2007 Elderbear(Loma Linda, Aztlan) I cannot complain about the artwork in this calendar. It's inspirational. But the matter transport stream was obviously distorted on the way to the publisher. This calendar must be hung *SIDEWAYS* on the wall.
It is the fault of the publisher and/or Amazon for not clarifying this. Also, I have to "ditto" all the reviewers who complained about no space to write on it.
PROS: Trek art nicely done.
CONS: Must be hung sideways on the wall (widthwise / landscape). No place to scribble on the dates (although this is not entirely bad).
I wish I'd gotten the desk calendar - at least I could have made room for that.

Great artwork, absolutely beautiful. But not very useful as a calendar. My first time purchasing a ships of the line calendar, and my last. As much as I enjoy the beautiful artwork, I cant write anything on the calendar, and viewing Amazon's limited images of it, it was not clear ahead of time what the format would be. Not mad, but not entirely pleased either.

First /Rant on..
I don't know if some of the people reviewing below have purchased the Ships of the line calendar for the first time or not however since the last 3 years or so these calendars have always been in a wide-screen "paranomic" format(the way they are supposed to be). The emphasis with this series of star trek calendars is to showcase the excellent almost movie quality art in the widest format as possible on a calendar. As a result the images nearly have a poster quality look to them and hence the 16*9 reminiscent layout. This calendar is not supposed to be used for writing stuff up as the images will loose their "epic paranomic quality" if they are in horizontal format. Go buy a $1.99 flatback calendar if you sooo need to write stuff up on your calendars but leave us trekkies alone to enjoy the star trek art the way its supposed to.

As always an excellent star trek ships of the line calendar. I have been buying these calendars since 2002. The last two calendars were tad bit disappointing as they were focused on just one series. This time around we have orginal enterpise, NX-02, NCC1701-C & E, the prototype ships shown in Voyager, the hypothetically refitted NCC-1701-C among others. The images are far better in quality than the last two years. Though bit hazy in some shots but they are more epic and action oriented than the previous two calendars. I will whole-heartedly recommend this calendar to any Trekkie or Trekker out there.
As with past ships of the line calendars this one agains adorns my office wall. I just want to make sure that no one ever forgets(atleast in my company) that I will forever be a Trekkie or Trekker no matter what.

When my husband chose this, he thought there'd be space for writing appts. and such as one would with a standard calendar. There is no space whatsoever to write any appointments, and the calendar is not even printed in a kind of useable format a human would use. Maybe it's meant for someone of another galaxy to use? It would be a lot better if it were formatted in a more traditional format, with at least it looking like a normal calendar. The pictures were lovely, though.
