Website History
AmberCreatures first opened early 1997 under the name of The AmberDawn. It began as a virtual life website dedicated to producing new addons and tutorials for Creatures, Oddballz and Petz. By 2000 the website had grown large enough that it had to be broken into several seperate sites, hense the Creatures section became called AmberCreatures.
Unfortunately, third-party development was not as common when AmberCreatures opened and Don often found her website had been deleted by the hosting company, who mistakenly believed norns were illegal warez. This meant that new downloads were lost in several of the website moves, including the Creatures 1 world, The AmberCity. Then, in 2002 AmberCreatures finally found a reliable host and has remained with them ever since.
