Well well, it's not but it looks almost exactly like one!

# nooo.
No it isn't. Romulan ships are green, for one, and those ships were rendered by a friend of mine for a non-Star Trek space game. :)

# I stand corrected.

# a trekker is a fan of the shows, but knows its just entertaining [sic] tv
a trekkie is an úber-geek who goes to conventions in a captains uniform (some go as kilngons, which require a bucket of shit to be emptied on their heads) and ask really gay questions to the actors
(I helped save b3ta! lo, the OTHER greebo warrior, Wed 3 Dec 2003, 20:57, archived)
# really?
as I understood it, a trekkie was a fan who did the silly stuff but knew it was silly

a trekker is a fan who takes it all far too seriously, denying it's entertainment and treating it more like a documentary? (witness the movie "trekkers")

# well, it's not six, but...
Barbie is (c) Mattel
Gameboy Advance is (c) Nintendo
The starfield in the background is (c) NASA JPL
The spaceships are nicked from EV Nova, which is (c) Ambrosia Software
The "Wars" part of the logo is nicked from Star Wars, which is (c) LucasArts.

Okay, five. :)

# they're rights-managed
