One curious society has devoted itself to the study of this world) The Curious World of Laniakea (An endless world of islands, shallow seas, mangrove swamps, and reefs) Hidden Spring (A partner project between myself and Beetleboy- exploring a future where a twist of cosmic fate changes the planet forever)

"So long as Flisch, lord of machines and scion of Urborg lives, all will be well". SE, (in)famous for it's eccentric userbase, has recently been spiraling downward, and now we have hard conformation of the decline.

@trex: aw shucks!
i'm a big fan of Beetleboy's Rainforest Earth, TerrificTyler's Post Earth, and Dapper Man's Psuedo-Cenozoic. It's hard to do future evo or lesser K-Pg projects well, and these three are very good at putting original twists on relatively common premises.
EDIT: Also I LOVE Picrodus' Umbriel- its a super original premise and I love his planimals!

Projects: Amammalia: A strange place where mammals didn't make it and the land is, once again, dominated by archosaurs.
Oceanus: An endless sea dotted with islands, reefs, and black holes. Literally endless, literal black holes.

The project "The Tower Forests" in the future evolution section is very intriguing. Although some of the plausibility could be called in the question, it shows a wholly unique and original far future ecosystem, featuring an art style that works beautifully, showing us an ecosystem like nothing we've ever seen. Everything there is filled with creativity.

Me  Forum user Uncanny Gemstar drew what is supposed to be a me. Thanks! Spoiler: click to toggle As they walk in, they're greeted by a small, poorly kept pathway leading to a poorly constructed Japanese-style gate. Behind this, a small field made up of corn, rice, wheat, potatoes, among other plants is contrasted by large piles of books, as well as a few rather out of place looking laptops. Off in the corner, a small woman, with long, striped, and strikingly colorful socks, no shoes, unremarkable denim shorts, a large, fancy black coat, arm warmers, glasses, a tuque, and somewhat unkempt, mid-length blue-and-pink-streaked red hair, is rummaging through a trash bin, located behind a sign saying "employees only". She continues this for a while (walking behind a wall to change her outfit now and then), until one of her visitors coughs. Startled, she looks up, apologizes, and grabs a handful of textbooks and novels before daintily running off to join them. What, you want me to tell you what these mean?

Even though he is our creator, that does not afford him the right to take our lives on a whim. But that is the thinking of a homs. He is a god. Such morals cannot apply to gods. So you think we should just shut up and die?! If that is the fate decided by a god. You are mistaken if you think we will simply accept such a fate and wait to die. We'll never stop fighting. Not till the end. To Zanza, the outcome is the same. Thus your logic is flawed.

But Souls are delicious. They're like bacon - they taste good on anything. But if you eat them, you completely remove them from existence! They can't move on or... or be reincarnated! Huh. I never really gave it much thought. Besides, what do you mean by reincarnation anyway? You know, being reborn as someone or something else. Which means different body, different memories, different experiences, yes? So isn't being reborn as "something else" the same as being "removed from existence"? I... I... eating souls isn't right! That depends on your definition of "right". All living things survive by eating other living things. So what? You're a god. You should be above all that! Gods are above living things, which doesn't necessarily mean we care about them.

I'm reviving this thread from the dead, to point out some promising projects that either came out recently, or I had overlooked previously. All of them deserve more attention and feedback! ~ Land Down Under by Chuditch - The Land Down Under is a future evo. project focused around the island continent of Australia, and the surrounding islands. Set 10 million years in the future, it is one of the most meticulously researched pieces of spec I have ever seen. It's still in its infancy, but what has been posted is fantastic, and this is definitely one to keep an eye on!
Future Planet by CaledonianWarrior96 - Future Planet is a highly ambitious project that seems to have gone completely under the radar. Covering multiple time periods, it details the worlds fauna and climate, and how both change and adapt as the project heads further and further into the future. A sizable amount has already been written, and it definitely deserves more love!
The Lance That Pierced The Stars by Uncanny Gemstar - A terraforming experiment conducted by human scientists goes horribly wrong, as a solar flare from the local star kills them all. Against all odds, some microorganisms manage to survive the resulting cataclysm, along with a single type of animal; the lancelet. This project explores the evolutionary radiation of these basal chordates in a world devoid of competition. Also covers multiple time periods, and takes a page from Sheather's playbook in detailing the progression of life and death over time. Definitely worth a read!

Nemo Ramjet's Snaiadi project? That's super well known
|
Projects Punga: A terraformed world with no vertebrates Last one crawling: The last arthropod
ARTH-6810: A world without vertebrates (It's ded, but you can still read I guess)
Potential ideas- Swamp world: A world covered in lakes, with the largest being caspian sized. Nematozoic: After a mass extinction of ultimate proportions, a single species of nematode is the only surviving animal. Tri-devonian: A devonian like ecosystem with holocene species on three different continents.
Quotes "Arthropod respiratory systems aren't really "inefficient", they're just better suited to their body size. It would be quite inefficient for a tiny creature that can easily get all the oxygen it needs through passive diffusion to have a respiratory system that wastes energy on muscles that pump air into sacs. (Hence why lungless salamanders, uniquely miniscule and hyperabundant tetrapods, have ditched their lungs in favor of breathing with their skin and buccal mucous membranes.) But large, active insects already use muscles to pump air in and out of their spiracles, and I don't see why their tracheae couldn't develop pseudo- lungs if other conditions pressured them to grow larger."-HangingTheif
"Considering the lifespans of modern non- insect arthropods (decade-old old millipedes, 50 year old tarantulas, 100+ year old lobsters) I wouldn't be surprised if Arthropleura had a lifespan exceeding that of a large testudine"-HangingTheif
"Humans have a tribal mindset and it's not alien for tribes to war on each other. I mean, look at the atrocities chimpanzee tribes do to each other. Most of people's groupings and big conflicts in history are directly or obliquely manifestations of this tribal mindset."-Sceynyos-yis
