Not at all, in fact I would be honoured. And to Akasha, if you buy the creature creator you get your money back when you buy the full game online. Though, with the release being so close I doubt it'll be worth the trouble.

Anyway, the Cyekin!
Description:
The Cyekin of the 'Kin' family. The Cyekin are social critters that rely on one another. They may look cute, but these critters can be very fierce when attacked.


Here's a direct link to the Sporepedia page of the Cyekin.
Sporepedia
Or try the profile page for all creatures I've made so far.
My Spore Page

To use a creature, right click the image and save the .PNG file to your Documents/Spore-creations/creatures folder. It should now appear in-game.
This creature was made using the full version of the spore creature creator and may not work with the demo version.

And two other creatures I really love.

The Daeminn
Description:
The Daeminn, the most feared creature on Albion. The Daeminn have incredible stamina and strength, and are often found in great packs.

The Vesuvia
Description:
One might say this is a bud sprouting from a bush. Think again! These predators have perfected the art of camouflage. Water twice a day.


This one was rated most popular on my profile page:

The Fenkin
Description:
The Fenkin of the 'Kin' family. The Fenkin rely on great speed to catch their prey and outsmart predators.

I didnt mean to imply use in the game, I meant more for avatars and such...

[TheAkrab]

Sure, use it!

I'm the only one willing to admit that I'm pretty meh about Spore? Seems like I've been hearing about this thing forever. I'm as glad as the next guy when vaporware finally congeals, but.....meh

About The Sims though: totally agree! I don't need "The Sims: Totally Extreme Back to school night with zombie pets and party hats" followed a few months later by "The Sims: Back to School night with zombie pets WEARING party hats To the Extreme"

You're not the only one who feels "meh" about Spore. I'm not really interested either. It kinda reminds me of a cross between the old Sim-Earth and Sid Meier's Civilization, but on a mmorpg scale....sort of reminds me of. I haven't been excited about any new game for quite a while, until the other day when I ran across the site for Star Trek Online. That one piques my interest (I love Trek). It's due to come out in about a year to a year and a half. Until then, it's WoW for me.

This game is going to be sweet, i can't wait for it to come out. it'll be fun ruining peoples planets and building up an epic zoo planet.

I'm not really shure what to expect from SPORE. I'm afraid it is one of those games that just blows your mind the first 3-4 hours of gaming, where you think "WOW, the coolest game... EVER!" But then the game gets to big for its own ideas, gets to trivial or something like that. One game that comes to mind that had that effect on me were Black or White... and until I've heard from happy people who have played more than 3 days of this I wont be getting it.

PS: Please prove that I am wrong

I downloaded the creature creator a while back but it didn't seem to run properly when I first tried and haven't got round to trying again. I have the game on reorder so perhaps I should try again...

I was gonna make a joke about creating a race of voidwalkers but on second thoughts I should probably use this game to pry myself away from WoW. :P

The award for giving Vaell his first laugh out loud moment of the day goes to Kusasi!



So confessional... *chuckle*

That's actually one of the things I'm also afraid of (along with the Sims like expansion list). I don't want this to be a 'one week game'...

And P.S. I found Black and White beyond frustrating!
