My old breeds

Hey there. I don't know if many of you remembers me, but I used to be rather active in the community many years ago. I did post on here a few years ago because I was planning on updating one of my old breeds. I never finished the task because it seemed a little overwhelming. I haven't given up on it yet though.

Anyway, the reason why I am making this topic is to ask if it's possible to have my old breeds hosted here so they at least stay preserved?
I still have all the files for them. There are 7 breeds in total. Some of them has buggy sprites that probably could need some fixing up though. Besides the breeds there is also a set of egg sprites.
For now, they are all hosted on a Google drive but I think adding them here would be more convenient. :)

Of course you can host them here! Just make a submission (or seven) to the breeds section. Make sure you upload a ZIP file (we don't allow RARs) and a 140x140 image. Your submissions should be approved within 24 hours. Might want to mention the buggy sprites in the descriptions. Egg sprites can go in the COBs section.

I can also offer you dedicated hosting for your breeds if you'd like a nice little website to put them on.

Edit: And welcome back!

Welcome back! I'm excited to see these breeds on the site. :)

I know I have at least some of your breeds but without a list I don't know if I have all. Are they all represented here? http://armaina.com/xan/creatures/breedlist/

Malkin: Been busy since last time with, you know, life.. :P
How about you? :)

Ylukyun: Thank you! I'll be sure to do exactly that, as I have all my files from back when I used to host them on my own site.

Neon_Sky: Thanks! They are really nothing special though, and they are all more or less buggy. I would try to clean them up, but the outlines seems to be almost impossible to get rid of.. And most of them also have some bugs in the body data. I never really got the grasp of how body data worked, so I just copied the files from the original breeds, which resulted in some weird bugs.

Xan: Thanks for that link! It's actually really convenient to have. And I see that there are quite a few breeds that I don't have. But I haven't played the games much over the years.
I checked up on it, and all my breeds are indeed in the list. There is some minor misinformation on them that I'd be happy to help correct. :)
Besides that I also have the DS cavenorns that was a colaboration with Norngirl.

I also see that Emzie's site is still online, which means that my breeds are also preserved there. I am still in touch with Emzie though. Just never thought about checking up on this.

I don't know what the policy is regarding the hosting of other people's breeds but I still have a big collection of the old breeds out there. I would be happy to provide the files if it's allowed. I know that I had the permission of Norngirl to host the CV ports. But after reading her site, I am not sure if she has changed her mind. I also have the permission to host the Tilynn norns as I was the one making the sprites for the younger life stages. (I guess you can tell from the buggy sprites, which seems to be my trademark). I am also still in touch with Jelisa (I believe that was her username) - the creator of the Tilynn norns.

Hi Erling,nice to see you around! :)

As for the CV ports,don't remember saying anything about them,perhaps except the Cave ones,since you did indeed help me with the resize on them thought.
But yes,sorry I rather prefer to handle those on my site,
Since I got a lot of stuff to update & add anyway (hopefuly soon),but im still busy with making new stuff. Thanks for respecting and reading on my site thought!

Also,there is a creator policy list here on CC ,if you are interessted.
Not sure if it's updated for everbody,but I know I did ask for mine being so (it's found under Devs), as it may be useful.

I must have mistaken the CV breeds for the Cavenorn one. And it doesn't help much that my Vidyanorns also is based on the Cavenorn. Lots of confusion. :)
And I totally respect your desire to keep your breeds on your site. After all I didn't really do much with the Cavenorn breed as far as I can remember.

do you have any breeds that aren't available on the list? :O

cleaning up some of the sprites sounds like yet another thing for me to do at some point... (if it's okay with you, of course)

If you'd want to do that I would certainly not complain!

I don't have any finished breeds that are not on the list, but I have a lot of half-finished ones; some more finished than others. I remember I almost completed a breed that was the sprites from mud-filled norn from Creatures Village that I had downsized. I think that was one of the ones that were close to completion. I also had another of the Bloodsong's model that I had finished the head sprites of, and some of the body as well.
I also had some angel ettins that were somewhat finished, with wings and wild hair.

It seems like my breeds are already on here - most of them that is.
So I guess this post was somewhat pointless. :o

Anyway, I have decided that it's time to update and fix them all, so I am right now fixing the outlines on the Bry norns. Hopefully, I'll be able to update them all - including those annoying Porcelain norns. :|
And if I'm not completely exhausted when I'm done, I could complete one more unfinished breed that also uses the Bloodsong base model. Both the head sprites and the body sprites are already completed for those, so it shouldn't be that big a task. :)
