Default Re: Colony question from a newbie

Easy. You just haven't loaded any population into your colony ship first. You can do this one of two ways:

1) Click on the "colonize" command button (upper left) and then click on the planet you wish to colonize. This will automatically load population into the ship before it leaves the planet to colonize.

2) Click on the "Transfer Cargo" button and manually load up as much or as little population as you wish. You can then move to the planet and give the colonize command.

Also, you might try the tutorial, it covers this pretty well.
