> How do you want to say "I want a picture of a D7 Battle Crusier"

Aha!  You've found one of those words which we've wanted for years: picture.

Probably the best one has been {'oSwI'}.  But I don't like it at all.  Some 
have suggested that {HaSta} "visual display" might suffice, and I have just 
thought of {vIHbe'bogh HaSta}.  But these still leave much to be desired.

I wouldn't try to translate "D7" into Klingon.  "D7" has been in fandom for 
years, but I don't think it was ever "canon" Star Trek until "Trials and 
Tribble-ations."  There it is said by Kira.

I don't know what the Klingon designation is.  I don't know if it's the same 
type of ship as the {qItI'nga'} class battle cruiser.  For simplicity's sake, 
let us assume for now that it is.

qItI'nga' may'Duj "picture" vIneH.

Note that you don't need the {vInej} part.  What you had was "I want to look 
for a picture of a D7 battle cruiser."  Either say you want it, or you're 
looking for it.

I don't have any stills from Star Trek.  The best I have is a couple of good 
downloads from K'Mel's Klingon site.
