Like the new version better Willy. Don't believe you mentioned what program you used to create this one, so what program? :)

Grrrr! I had two paragraphs and three pics ready to post and the power blipped off and i have to start all over.
So lets try it again...
I really like fractals too, I can sit for hours working with them IF I have the right software. I've seen magnificent results from Apophysis, Fyre, and frost but I only get good results with fractal explorer, but it isn't even made anymore. Lately I've been playing with electric sheep, which isn't a fractal program, it's more of a screensaver that designs fractals using the idle time of all the computers on it's network. Sorry for the lousy quality. The originals are a lot neater.

I also like the new version better, both very elegant the second with some added gimp magic and more vibrant colors

These are some I made with Fractal Explorer. I used to have a big online album of all of them but I eventually took it off.

Ger forgot who asked, but I used Apophysis

Willy,

Very cool looking fractal. I agree with the others who have also mentioned it that the second version looks really outstanding.

Gms9810,

You really created some great looking fractals.

:)

Thanks ccbarr :) and to everyone else!

Also to GMS, thanks, but no thanks, Love Apophysis, want to try and get into Ultra Fractal. Costs money to get a version you can render with though, but fractal community can help you get around that :)
