Island Norn has just informed me that he sent in the wrong zip file. If you downloaded his "other" breed pack of gizmo norns, you got regular chichi genes, not gizmo. I have uploaded the correct file. I still do not know to what extent these are edited. Also, I took care of a few things mentioned to me on the welcome lesson. Their is now a little more information on Bitmapped vs Vector and I added tool information on Catalogue files as well as Catalog vocab and I linked GIMP to their site. Thanks to everyone who saw my errors... I also fixed a few typos.

I just fineshed the "welcome" lesson for agent making. If you havn't made agents because you don't understand most tutorials, this is the page for you. It goes over the very basics of computer files and programing so that you don't get caught asking yourself "whats that" when you read my later lessons. If you are a more techie person, this will likely bore you to death, but remember, everyone has to start someware. :) G'night everyone.

Wow, has it really been 4 days? I've been so bussy getting stuff done on those projects I lost track of time! You can expect to see some rather interesting developer information posted soon (I need it posted befor I can finesh that new breed, you'll understand when you see it). You may also want to check out our Trophy room, I've updated the requirements for winning Gizmo Trophies and Nornerator picked his up at last, however, his website is down :P so no link. And I have to say WOW THANKS! To Island Norn who has done just a bunch of stuff for us. Not only did we win trophies in two catigories from his website, but he even filled in the gaps to the Gizmo norn breeds! Unfortunetly, I don't know to what extent these norns are edited so for now you can click here to download them (Toxic, Treehugger, Magma, Bondi, Hardman). Island Norn, I keep getting my e-mails bounced back, could you contact me with info on how you made these little guys? Thanks. Soooooooo, things are a bit crazy right now, but I am wrapping things up. I may even have the Colorbright Norn Agent Pack compleat soon!... and if you read the Trophy room, you may also pick up on something else in the works.....

Glad to see some votes, looks like people want the Colorbrights mostly. I will make an effort to do as much work on them as I can, but their compleation is partially based on information I'm still waiting to recieve from Creatures Labs (I don't want to continue life stages if something needs to be changed). However, I think their is enough to keep me bussy in the agent pack area of that project ;) Also, because I was short on votes, I just sat down and did the Chichi Gizmo gene compare. You can read it in the developers section, but it gets rather complex. You may still wish to vote for more development information on the genetics, I have more bits and bobs to add when I get the chance, and remember you can ALWAYS use my work as a base for yours, just note that you started with mine AKA based on Gizmo Genome, or a variation on the Gizmo Genome or whatever in some little corner of the readme :) (you should do this with chichi genomes too if you use em). Oh and I have started fixing spelling and links as I update pages... no I don't spell check the news, it's a pain for a temp file.

Ah duh! I put a poll up yesterday to help you guys guide what project I focus in on compleating next, but I forgot to tell you! You can vote on the polls page :) Also, feel free to contact me with any complaints or request or whatever. I don't mind you sending your imput be it positive or negative, you can e-mail me by clicking the "contact me" choice on the navigation colum. :)

Oh, I'm sore, Coops nearly clean though so I took a break to upload Astro, Fallow and Harlequin vertions of the Gizmo Norn. I don't know if they work right so if you download them and theirs a problem E-Mail me. Also, I fixed the readme file so that it is now a .txt file insted of a .cos (woops!) and A big thanks to Twilightcat for the glyph files for the breeds :) Oh and if you take a screanshot of your baby gizmos of these breeds send it in and I'll post it above the download :)
June 20, 2002 12:58pm:
Chicken chores. I am going to take a break for a day or two to clean my chicken coop out. Sorry, but real life befor A-life ;).
June 19, 2002 9:00pm:
Yahn. Well, last Gizmo Egg file for the day, I uploaded one that uses the Zebra Norn Sprites, I'll try and finesh the other Chichi stile breeds tomarrow (I'll be remaking the geneticly differnt CL breeds so they still act like themselves, but have the Gizmo upgrades). G'night.
June 19, 2002 7:46pm:
Guess what? I fineshed a new batch of Gizmo genes. Now you can get Gizmo norns that use Bengal, Bruin or Civit norn sprites :) Don't worry, I'm working on even more varients, also if you have a storey about a Gizmo norn, or a cool decendent (cross or pure) feel free to send it to me and I may post it on this page. Also, for any genetic enginear out their, if you want to use the Gizmo genetics as a base file for your own crazy tinkerings go ahead, just make sure you note that ;) Oh, I also added my Beta testers names to the readme file, but for anyone who downloaded the genome befor it was their, A big super thanks to my beta testers Yurtra, Linnet, ub1111, AngelPhnx, Snapdragon, Mkid112, and The Aardvark.
June 19, 2002 2:52pm:
Hey, I'm feeling better. I have closed the polls and our winner was the Mammalian Norn, but since I don't feel right calling a genome that doesn't really relate to mammles that, the second place choice of Gizmo Norn will be used insted... Gizmo was also the coad name for this genome, that you can now download :D I'll have more eggs that use differnt sprite sets up shortly (If Nornerator could e-mail me so I can give him his trophy that would be nice :).
June 18, 2002 8:58pm:
Everything on the update from the 14th still hold true so remember to look at it, I'm just letting you know I am really ill feeling right now and can't get the stuff together untill I'm better, consitter this an extra chance to vote on the current poll befor it closes. thanks for understanding.
June 14, 2002 9:03pm:
Ok, if people don't vote on the polls page, I can't move on, not with only 22 votes and several ties anyways! Okay, now some er news, I now have Photoshop 7.0 YAH! This means several art projects will move along faster because 7.0 has some awsome new features the best of wich are a pattern maker and the patch tool. And more good news, I just orderd my new laptop! It's so much more powerfull then this desktop, that I'll be able to test new agents and genomes quicker (takes a long time to load stuff currently). So while their may not be new stuff here, their is new stuff in my life and things should start coming together any day now... mabey even a first look at the void now :)... Oh and the trophy room now comes here when you click home insted of random access base camp ;) sorry about that.
June 12, 2002 7:46pm:
Hey, Ok I fixed the broken link to the Scyther Download. And lets see, this site won the golden sand award! Yah our first award, guess that revamp was worth it. I just got 4 baby chicks, so updates may be slow for a week or so. Hmmm, ah yes, don't forget to vote in the naming poll, I can't move on untill I get enough votes....... Oh yah, and if your interested their is a full picture of an adult male colorbright on the breeds page now.
June 10, 2002 1:57pm:
oooooo aaaaaaaah, shiney. We have a new page up today, the trophy room! Their isn't much their yet, but their will be... I hope. Also, the polls page has been updated and now has an area open where you can decide who will win our first Golden Gizmo Trophy. It's worth checking on things since the genome contest is importent and you can see a sample gizmo trophie... erm did I mention we make the trophies real agents for C3/DS?
June 6, 2002 9:49pm:
Ok, the Colorbright norn page (also known as as the project gizmo page) is back up, you can get to it under the breeds section. :)
June 4, 2002 6:34pm:
Dang I got a lot done today, this is my 4th update! I've fineshed restoring the C2 page, everything has working downloads and pictures :)
June 4, 2002 3:35pm:
Three updates, one day! Am I on a roll or what? I am happy to anounce that my C1 page is now totally done. I have fixed all the broken files, links etc. You can safely install anything, and the Silver Earthen Norns use their sprite files now (oops!). Oh yes, and I added pictures for everything :) ON TO C2!
June 4, 2002 11:49am:
Hey, two updates in one day! I've fineshed reparing and uploading my C1 genetics and Cobs. They all have pictures now, they all work and new to the list is the Breeding Booster Cob and Blueboy with Care kit. I'll get the rest of the C1 section updated asap, oh and I am still missing 2 Cobs, the Happy Halloween set and the Rainbow Cheese Vender Set, if you have these let me know!
June 4, 2002 10:00am:
CONTEST: If a new strain of norn were to enter your world. And this genetic varient brought forth individual personality, if this genome let evolution work more affectivly. If this genome created a more balanced biochemistry and realistic behaviors, what would you call it? What would you name this strange new breed? E-mail me your best ideas and later this week we can all vote for what we would call such a creature should it ever exist (winner gets credit and um something else).
June 3, 2002 10:10am:
Care for a spot of tea? I've uploaded more of my old C1 agents inclueding my all time favoret, the tea pot and cups! I made them because it bugged me that a British game left out tea! (attually I think they changed the name to the coffie pot) Anyways, you can now download 3 more of my C1 agents, teaset, black cat and happy birthday. On another note, yesterday I got my highschool deploma (yay). Thats why no updates.
June 1, 2002 1:47pm:
Erm, ok so mabye I didn't get more stuff uploaded yesterday (had to get graduation dress, took 5 hours :P). Lets see, well nothing new yet that you can see, but I figured I'd let you know I have been working on things ;)
May 31, 2002 11:35am:
I've uploaded more C1 Cobs and I have fixed the broken ones :) The new files are as fallows: Farm (inclueds working farm and zinger blues), Boom Boxes, Yellow Dragon, Purple Dragon, Snow Maker, Snow Storm, Pizza vender and slice, Bouncing Radish. Hopefully I'll have more old items up later today

Wow, look at that! Our webpage layout has been upgraded after over 6 years of the old stile!!! *Gee, was I slow on this or what? Well, enjoy our new and improved navigational system! Oh and I'm still working on some parts so erm expect a new surprise or two in the future :) (I wanted it to be done for release of the new page, but I'm a little behind :P )
