}}'''Furbuntu''' is a project that begun in February 2008 by Theyain Riyu to create a [[furry]]-oriented theme for the [[wikipedia:Ubuntu (Linux distribution)|Ubuntu Linux]] operating system. But was murdered on September 11, 2001.<br />
<br />
'''CreatureSystem''' or CreatureS is a Furry-orientated Linux-bases Operating system.<br />
and the new name of [[Furbuntu]]. It was started as a derivative of Ubuntu Linux, but on the 26th of April, 2008 it was announced<ref name="a">[http://news.deviantart.com/article/43335/ Furry CreatureS Great and Small]</ref> that the OS will not be based on any of the existing distributions, and so the name was changed to CreatureS. Besides a furry theme the system is expected to have furry-specific programs, some of which will be made by the team. No alpha versions of the OS or its components were ever released.<br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
Originally it began as a project to create an entire Ubuntu-based furry-oriented Linux distribution, but was instead narrowed down to creating a furry-based theme for Ubuntu<ref name="a" />; furthermore, Furbuntu was repositioned as a sub-project of [[CreatureS]], or '''CreatureSystems''', which is deemed as a genre of desktop operating systems tailored to the [[furry fandom]] and subcultures.<br />
<br />

<br />
On May 15, 2008 winners were announced, first place going to [[DavidStrife]], while second place went to [[tsubasa-mine|Tsubasa]]. No future contests are planned in the near future .<br />
<br />
==Current state==<br />
A series of [[IRC]] meetings were called to both bring the project back to life and to work out issues with certain ideas for the theme<ref>[http://www.creaturesystem.org/news-archieve/51-post2.html Attention All Coders!]</ref><ref>[http://www.creaturesystem.org/news-archieve/55-post5.html March 31st IRC Meeting]</ref><ref>[http://www.creaturesystem.org/news-archieve/57-post7.html Last Meeting on Theme Idea is Over]</ref>. The process appeared to have stalled as of 2009, but on the 18th of February 2010 it was announced<ref>[http://www.creaturesystem.org/news-archieve/59-post9.html The project is alive.]</ref> that the project is alive and that discussions are still taking place.<br />
