Hello everybody.

Since my Kitin research has been put off due to the lack of larvae :) I have decided to fulfill my life-long dream of creating a full botanical atlas.

I have studied the works of famous atysian botanists like Lirni Gillo
http://chronicles.ryzom.com/?page=featu ... n=&id=2209
I have consulted my colleages on Aniro
http://huhay.forumactif.com/Diplomatie- ... e-t264.htm

I have collected quite a bit of data and so far the research goes very well indeed. There is still so much still to be done however :)

Here you can take a sneak peek at the drafts of atlas and see what i have been working on so far :) More will come soon so stay tuned.

Thank you for nice feedback :)
At least I see now that this work is needed.

Let me answer a few questions from this thread and the one I have been asked in PMs;

1) There are typos in text!
- Yes but this is a draft a wrok in progress. I hope Bill gates will lend a hand correcting those :D

2) So few plants!
- What is presented in the draft atlas is 5-10% of plants that will be in the final released version. I am going to cover every herb and even different types of algae. My main char is cruising Atys taking pictures as though it's the great 7 summit :)

3) If you have put plun and cocoa mussels why not put other flying things from PR?
- This is a flora atals, not fauna :) The only reason Cocoa and Plun got there is that Lirni Gillo (The famous matisian botanist) insisted they were plants and this atlas shows they are not...

4) Will there be a version in Russian for the main russian fansite?
- Argh mate. I am writing it in english from the start. Looks like it's going to be a great deal of work... Dunno If I'll be able totranslate it all into Russian. Maybe you could tho? :)

5) How can others help?
- Well i want to make this as a PDF (will be rather heavy) and a web-based atlas. For web-based I do need hosting and ryzom-like webdesign. For the PDF I need ryzom-like decorative means. I do want it to look beautyful and atysian :) Also there might be some special plants growing in some special places that I will simply forget about (Like darkmoor ones) the so called Endemic species that grow only in one particular location. If you could point such plants Out I'd really appreciate it :)

Well now back to work :)
Hugz to all :)

No matter how often some people complain or flame Komi's work and way of life on Atys, the thing is simple- HE IS A GENIUS AND HIS HEART BELONGS TO ORDER :D
