Prudence and Madness

This is a photo I took of Chunky, one of Qingzi’s babies (but now, an almost-adult hamster), when I took her from her aquarium while sleeping.  She never even bothered to wake up and continued to curl inwards, sleeping.  I guess she’s already learned to trust me that much she isn’t even worried that I might drop her.  For me, this photo is beautiful because it shows how our pets love us in return for the care and love that we give them.

I’m a bit sad, though, that I’ve to give her away today to a close friend.  I can only keep a certain number of hamsters at home and Dad chose to keep the other one, Maws.  But then, I’m sure my friend will take good care of her.  And maybe I’ll be able to see her again when I get to visit my friend.

There’s a new patch available for download for Spore Creature Creator at the Spore Official site.  You can get the new patch here.  If you’re a Mac user, forget it; just check back after a week for the patch for Mac.

When you get to the site, be careful in clicking the links, though.  The patch for the Creature Creator trial version is different from the full version.

Patch fixes include (lifted from the official site):

• Improved thumbnail resolutions for saved creatures.
• Added five new animations, recorded when creating animated GIFs in Test Drive Mode.
• Fixed a randomly occurring system hang.
• Fixed a crash associated with EADM.
• Creatures no longer disappear from the Sporepedia when the save flow is interrupted.
• Corrected the Audio buzzing found on systems with nForce2 integrated audio.
• Updated Spanish and Polish readme files.
• Updated the EULA found in the installer.
• Fixed disparity between server and game complexity limits.
• Integrated the newest save creature PNG.
  NOTE: This allows creatures PNGs made with Spore to be drag-and-dropped into the Spore Creature Creator. Spore Creature Creator players who do not patch will not be able to drag-and-drop PNGs created in patched versions of the Spore Creature Creator or Spore.
• Improves overall stability.

Ten more days to go before the Spore game comes out! 

C’mon, give me your guesses!
