The petals are a means of sexual attraction via bees. A cooperative interspecies relationship. The leaves are "mouths" for energy; as well as the roots. Given enough time and the proper niche in evolution (via mutation, wich is the main aspect of evolution) could make a plant sapient.

Larry Niven's Ringworld had a species of sunflower with reflective leaves that could focus sunlight to burn herbivores or evaporate clouds that would take the sun away. They weren't sapient though.

(fruits are the ONLY food which suffices for our life: We will be able to eat only fruits and to be in better health. No other food can do that for us).

I think you misspelled "meat." I'm basing this on the belief that you need certain amino acids to survive and fruits don't have them because they're low in protein. Animals also tend to use the same vitamins we do and have them in their meat, as long as you eat the liver and not just the muscles.

yeah, it was a Precursor civilization that spread DNA all over the galaxy, so it all ended up developing into setient beings with variously crinkled prosthetic foreheads.

ST:Enterprise added to the story with a nice little ditty about genetically engineered SuperHumans. Khan was one of them. Their take was that the Klingons used to look human (TOS), until they stole the genetic plans from Dr Noon Yung Soon (who later developed Data). Anyway, the Klingons flubbed the job, and a fatal disease took over. Eventually they took Dr. Flox to help develop a horrible but functional cure, which resulted in the mutated, twisted form of the Klingons we see later.

Something like that. It was a fairly good back story for the discontinuity in Klingon makeup

Reading everyones posts whining about Bi-peds vs some Truly shocking and unconventional form is really just silly. Arguing evolution theory on a galactic scale is like arguing religon ..... silly and pointless. 80% of this is flames of someone else. Let it go agree to disagree.

not to mention the pics on the front page are broken.....

To say tha any intelligent life that we MAY discover will look even remotely humanoid is ridiculous and short-sighted.

other way around.. the natural state of Klingons was the ridged version of later, but the cure from flox made them look the way they did for a few hundred years.. or something along those lines...

I took them down... I tried to share the goods, but got grief, so I took them down..

well I'd like to see them as I'm curious as to what the pics were. maybe you could just link to them or dunno. and dmo4, its not really a good idea to just broadcast your email in broad view. I know most ppl here are ones that won't do something bad to your email, but you never know.

So.. for the past few weeks... I have been hunting on-line and I have scored some good ones..including non-conventional ones... and I am looking for race icons now...


when I accumulate enough.. I will post.

Update: 100 or so new Aliens.. of various ypes, and 40 or so logos...



and counting....
