It's a long time since I have done a real photo manip and what would be more worthy for it than these two? 
Source materials: screencaps from TOS: All Our Yesterdays and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home

Hey, if you'd like, feel free to read my Star Trek fanfic. It mostly involves Chekov, but Saavik has a small role in it.
Can I offer this as a wallpaper on spockandsaavik.com? Would you have a bigger size than the 800x600 so I can offer that too?
And no, this is the only size. I can try and augment it with Photoshop or a dedicated image resizing app.
By the way, you wrote: "Maybe one day I'll do a pic from my fanfic "Daughter of Hellguard, Son of Stars", with Saavik, Spock and little Xon, in the sickbay of the USS Coronation (an old Daedalus class ship they found by accident) with McCoy holding and old Polaroid camera to capture the moment"
That day has come! You started working on it... right?!!
Hmmm... the "Daughter of Hellguard, Son of Stars" pic... It just slipped out of my head. My brain is filled with Lyra/Will images right now (His Dark Materials, have yo read it?).
I should do the previous scene: Kirk, who helped McCoy with delivering Saavik's baby, is sitting exhausted on a Sickbay chair. Spock turns to him:
-Jim, are you allright?
-Spock... I have done a few wild things in my life but THIS?!
I literally had to re-build Saavik's hair using hair brushes to achieve the effect...
Maybe one day I'll do a pic from my fanfic "Daughter of Hellguard, Son of Stars", with Saavik, Spock and little Xon, in the sickbay of the USS Coronation (an old Daedalus class ship they found by accident) with McCoy holding and old Polaroid camera to capture the moment ("On the count of three, everybody say Logical!")
Or the scene in which Kirk, who helped delivering the baby, is sitting on a chair, totally exhausted and saying to a proud father Spock: "I have done a few wild things in my life but THIS..."
If only I had your manip skills, my job would be so easy
You know, Sigmund Freud postulated that human beings are based upon two basic instincts, life (reproduction) and death (aggression). As modern civilisation has no place for such extremities, they sublimate into creative channels, be it poetry or martial arts. Looking at my work, I think old Siegmund was right...
Dude, I'm whining... Sorry for the monolouge...
There are three reasons why I used TOS Spock. 1, cuz the basic picruse came from TOS 2, cuz in my STF novellas, the TOS crew (of TWOK era) are rejuvenated and 3, I did not want to make Spok look like a "dirty old man" if you know what I mean?
