Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

Speculative Evolution v3!

It is time for me to officially announce Speculative Evolution v3! What is there to expect? Plenty. First of all, I plan to conduct 2 interviews for release in the next two weeks. Second, you all will see the official release of Spec Debates, including the beginning of Debate teams and the first debate match-ups. Third, we have a new theme! The coding for the theme was completed today, I only need to make (and request) some theme graphics (emotes, forum icons, etc.)

As part of the announcement, you all get a glimpse at the theme, code-named 'Annus Mirabilis'.

So cool! That darker color looks better to me, it doesn't hurt my eyes as much.
I wish I could give the public a true picture of the queen as she appeared at her best, but this would be impossible, even had she permitted a photograph to be taken, for her charming play of expression while in conversation, the character and intellect which were then revealed, were only half seen when the face was in repose. -Lilias Underwood when speaking of Empress Myeongseong

"I was born in the dark. I went out into the light, and your Majesty, it is my displeasure to inform you that I have returned to the dark. I envision a Seoul of towering buildings filled with Western establishments that will place herself back above the Japanese barbarians. Great things lie ahead for the Kingdom, great things. We must take action, your Majesty, without hesitation, to further modernize this still ancient kingdom."-Min Young-ik to Empress Myeongseong

Cool! I can't wait to see what the debates will be like!

And while you are at it, you might want to fix the codes for the angry smiley face, as well as bring back some old ones such as :clown: and :huh:.

Intelligence is awareness of ignorance. Stupidity is ignorance of ignorance. Think about it.

Unfortunately about the smilies is that not all people know how to do all the smilies, so we'll have to settle for whatever I get.

I'm going back to basics.

Looks great! Too bad about that Canopy skin though. I liked it.

That looks good - very different to what we've seen before, but it's cool. :D

For the next few days, I have given you guys the option of a live preview of the new theme. Simply select "Annus Mirabilis" in the theme selector and you can use it.

Mae hen wlad fyn ghadau yn anwyl I mi
Gwlad beirdd a chantorion enwogion o fri
Ei gwrol ryfelwyr gwlad garwyr tra mad
Dros ryddid collasant ei gwaed

Gwlad,Gwlad
Pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad
Tra mor yn fyr i'r byr hoff bau
O byddedd i'r heniaeth barhau
