Hi there Smart guys, I'm not a developer , I'm just a creator.

I was wondering if there's an API that can do just this:

Load up creature by putting in the assets ID number.

And then that the API translates this into a visual system in which you can see (with the thumbnails)
what and how many Parts are used.

I've seen this in the documentation:

Part Icon:
Using the filename for a part with a given id, you can retrieve it's icon.
For part with id 0x0f4d021b, filename is "ce_grasper_radial_02" The URL is:
http://www.spore.com/data/blocks/thumbs/ce_grasper_radial_02.png
Note: if the filename is "ce_grasper_radial_02-symmetric" or "ce_grasper_radial_02-center", just ignore the "-symmetric" or "-center" part and use "ce_grasper_radial_02".

So I think someone with the skills & brains could make such a little app ?

It just would be a cool thing to simply check more details about a creature, what parts are used in it, an show it visually rather then in code.

So is there already an API out there that can do this? or is some smart person already making this?

The being smart end with Idea's only concerning myself, cause I have no clue how to program, and I rather come up with an idea and let the smart department figure out how to make it.

drop me a line, or an anvil

At one point qualityspore.com had that feature:

But it was removed (not sure why).

http://llamaslayers.net/spore/shorts/creature-viewer-2 has the ability to show parts if you hover over the corresponding dots in the 3d view.
