I'm back from the unexpected hiatus: Turns out, doing these things in rote for a few hours every day for 6 months knocks the wind out of you more than you'd expect. But anyway, back now and thanks for everyones support in the mean time.
Where are the dinosaurs: I'm here to say fully there Will Not be any dinosaurs boards. The reason why I can get so many of these done is because they rely on being reproducible, the dinosaur boards require a lot more time and customisation and research, more than I'm willing to do and trust me more than you're willing to wait around for.
New update is out: It doesn't contain all new modded animals, but It is a nice chunk I wanted to get out.
Hello :D I have a question.... Namely I wanted to make my own but as soon as I use it in game it is much brighter than yours? I use clip studio... Would be great if someone can help me....
It's to do with how PZ reads the image. It'll only accept 1 colour profile properly and show the rest as bright and washed out. If you're on Windows you can open up the saved image in the image editor and save a copy, that new copy will be read properly by PZ. It's an unavoidable irritation, unfortunately :/
Thank you for using these boards, and if I can find the time, I'll try. But honestly, this board pack has been pretty much succeeded by my new board profile, which most of my energy is going into maintaining.
Oh, thank you so much for the info. I did not know that at all. Then I'll take a look at the new pack and will probably take this one. :) But thanks if you also update the old one :)
All the animals in the Europe Pack aside from the Fire Salamander have boards in the pack already, made for the equivalent mods. The maps don't match the official ones exactly but they're close enough.
CSP and Photoshop are both professional digital art programs and yes both require money, CSP has a 30-day free trial with the only requirement being to make an account, no money details. If that doesn't work for you, Photopea is a free and completely online program that can read the PSD version of these templates. It still rasterises text like Photoshop, but outside that retains full functionality.
Edit [1] It Still, Isn't, Working! It will just say, "Unknown File Format: 'CSFC'" I Feel like something is wrong with this. Edit [2] I Just got a brilliant idea! What if you uploaded these for Google Drawing or Microsoft PowerPoint? Also Im trying to use these but im worried the animals in the background from what I can see may make this harder. Edit [3] Gonna respond? No? Sigh...
I said to open the psd files in photopea. The error you're getting means you're putting in the csp files, not psd... I thought you would come to this conclusion on your own, so sorry for not responding earlier, but hope this clears things up.
Alright, also I have figured out how to edit these using photo pea and I Think i'm getting used to it. Trying to find what font you used now, then I can get the Image and Text.
If you've put them into the right folder (Documents\Frontier Developments\Planet Zoo\UserMedia) you should find them when editing the custom boards, the 2m and 4m and the like. This is just a png pack, so they can't be used within the official information boards, just the editable ones.
I decided against them mostly because of the small amount of people using them and the fact new maps would have to be drawn for each, and range maps are vague at best (high effort - low use). There's only a few though, right? I might still do them in the future, since I've got an update on the way anyway. Edit: Added the ones I could find to the to-do list :)

Trying to make my own versions of these but cant because both editing software require MONEY And there's no Microsoft or Google Drawing versions.
