New update for the October imagery, and other ships I missed before that.

What's new?:
-Version 3:
-Added "Submitter list"
-New ships added:
950-999: 7
1000-1099: 5
1100-1199: 2

-Old Ships removed: ##
950-999: 2

The screenshots differ because the old pictures used the old GE (Version 3) Compass

First big change: Google did a lot of color modifications of files, so a lot of the screenshots (in the thumbnails) look different than what your seeing. What's visible in the image is the same, but the colros are different. I did not feel like changing all the images because it's a ton of work, and there's no saying how often or when Google will change the colors again.

Ships Lost: 5, including the Queen Mary II

Added:
Six "950-999" footers
Six "1000-1099" footers
Three "1100-1199" footers
