When you encounter or scan something for the first time, a little card appears in the upper right corner of the screen showing a picture of the object or creature.

When I am abducting creatures I prefer to check them out in the sporpedia before I decide if I want them in a zoo or one of my themed planets. While I'm there, I also comment on the creature if a comment comes to mind.

It would be a nice feature for collectors like me to have the details button in the card that appears in the upper right after the first encounter. This would save me from having to go into the sporepedia, dig through all the other things I've scanned and click the details button there.

very well suggested! do you mind if i put this on my list of patch-worthy changes in the "how to make spore great with what we have" thread?

not at all, anything to help the dev team get the suggestion.

Very nice feedback! Although there's a little problem with the fact that when you scan the whole planet the cards quickly disappear for a new one to take their place so... it could be tough managing to click on one before another appears.

I put something like this in another post. What they could do is have a function that you can turn on or off that would pause the game and allow you to comment and rate what you found as you found it.

Could be annoying but if you could turn it on or off then I'd use it.

Thumbs up to this. Functionality like the spyglass mode (which takes you directly to the Sporepedia page) would be good... only without the clunkiness of spyglass (you have to go all the way to the escape menu!).
