But I did a quick graphic that seems to indicate that Enterprise is too
big, or the ISD is too small. I grabbed some graphics of both and scaled
them together:

I really have a hard time seeing the ISD is so small.

You're using an image of a Victory Class Star Destroyer. I think the current
discussion is in regards to the Imperial Star Destroyer. :)

And your scale's off.  the ISD is 1600 meters, the Enterprise under 700, so
the ISD should be over twice as long.

Using the picture Joe posted, I redid the scales.  1600/641 = ~2.496.

With that in mind, I think this picture is a little more on scale.

(...) Sorry, gang...I used the scale that was mentioned at the beginning of this thread. Completely forgot the numbers. This looks more reasonable. Thanks for the clarifications! Joe Meno (...) (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)

(...) Unfortunately, you're still using a pic of a Victory Class SD, which isn't as large as an Imperial Class, so technically it's still incorrect. <gdr> ~GAMH (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
