I didn't care, I don't care, and I never will. Keep on making your crappy images for all I care.

Explain "glow". (do you mean on the engines?)

Glow as in the light coming off from the very very bright strip(s) of white in the middle of the hulls of the ships on that picture.

Re: Glow or No Glow, That Is the Question
I like the brightness of the top and bottom ship, but find that the glow of the middle ship is somewhat overwhelming.
I like the ships overall. The glow gives the impression that the ships are charging up to unleash some serious punishment.

Re: Glow or No Glow, That Is the Question
I voted for the third option - it's a little too bright as is.

Re: Glow or No Glow, That Is the Question
That's probably because the glow is lower than what you've seen: the glow on the ships in the wallpaper you've seen before had their glow settings on max; the ship you see over there has it's glow settings at 200% - compared to the 500% max setting.
Also, the first picture ship has less glowing parts the the other ships shown so far, so that might lead to its fake (which is not fake) look.

Re: Glow or No Glow, That Is the Question

Re: Glow or No Glow, That Is the Question
Well, I hate to say it, but it looks like somebody pasted it onto a picture.

Re: Glow or No Glow, That Is the Question
Well, I think the reason the yellow stripe might look fake is because the dividing line between the grey metal of the ship and glowing stripe is too abrupt. When we look at the white glowing rectangular section on the engine on the third ship, that glow doesn't look fake because the white part is inside an inset - the glow is coming from a recessed area. The glowing stripe isn't recessed, so the edges of the stripe look too simple and therefore "fake".
