Hi, it's nice to hear from you, I thought you were gone. It's a good thing to have something you're really good at, where there's a beauty and a logic to it and you don't have to struggle to learn and it makes sense to you.

(Nevertheless, I am of the opinion that people that are bad at programming should not be releasing email software. They probably also shouldn't try to teach how to program.) BTW: you can do a bubble sort with one loop if you try. ;) Kragen - -- Kragen Sitaker A well designed system must take people into account. . . .

Kathy, Thank you. It's nice to hear from someone who has obviously learned some of the humility and compassion that life would teach us all if we would only pay attention.

I've been putting different short simple formulas into the iteration portion of the coloring method formulas and wanted to try something besides gravijul. A couple of months ago R.Parracho (I think) posted a nice image from one of the built-in Barnsley formulas. I had a couple of pars (Calm and Schizoid) based on this. The Fractint built-in formulas have a slightly different nomenclature when you press "z" but I thought the difference was simple. When I wrote the Barnsley formula it came out different. (az1 to az4 ) It looks a lot like Les St.Clair's Basket Weave from Tent-in-Mod, I don't know *why* these look alike, this kind of *why* is probably the wrong question to ask.

My images were both mandelbrot zooms.. I just can't get enough.. :) I guess this is because Mandelbrot's & Julia's are deep-zoomable, and the Mandelbrot set is infinitely more interesting than all the Julia sets combined, IMHO :) I was *extremely* surprised to see that I actually got 2 votes for best overall, one on each of my fractals. (Octobrot and Pulsar were mine, just to let you know ) I had a question, though... This is a comment I got for Pulsar: >Utterly amazing image. Barely ekes out 215(Octobrot) because the circular shape drawsthe viewer in... I'm sure I know who createdthis because it matches (really, exceeds)the beauty I've come to expect from your images... Also one of the best uses of color- I feel that if I were to touch it, I wouldfeel the ridges... I don't really want to know who wrote this, so much as who the author thought my fractal was by... (I don't want to push it though.. If you'd rather not tell, I don't mind ) I'd be *extremely* flattered if it was Damien or Wizzle or anyone else known for cool fractals.. :) (Don't be upset if I didn't name you, they were just 2 people off the top of my head...) To tell you the truth, the real reason I'm so surprised is that my entries weren't specifically designed for the contest. I just picked them out from the heap of fractals I'd designed. Octobrot was really my favorite, but Pulsar was nearly random... I just scanned through a few until I saw one I liked. If you really liked those, just let me know.. I'll post more pars, or eventually, if I have time, I'll put the images on my web site. Pulsar wasn't nearly as good as some others I've made. I've been reluctant to post alot of pars, because almost all my images are deep zooms, and have taken a long time to draw. Unfortunately, though, I haven't had time to play with fractals much lately, since I've just started college (FSU, I'm a freshman ) and getting adjusted has taken alot of time. Speaking of which, I need to get the A/C fixed in my apartment... I guess I'll see y'all later!

Benoit Mandelbrot discovered the set as a visual index to all the Julia sets, and it is mathematically true that any small area of the Mandelbrot set resembles a corresponding area of a corresponding Julia set.
