Subject: (fractint) A devil of a formula

comment {
In this image you will see Satan rising from the flames of
hell with his arms raised in supplication.  In supplication
to whom?  To the larger and even more ominous figure that
looms behind him.

I used to post this image to the abpf newsgroup every
Halloween.  I happened to mention it on the fractal chat
last night, and so I'm posting it to the list now because
I'll probably forget about it come Halloween since I rarely
post to abpf anymore.

The formula is a different rendering of one of Noel Giffin's
formulas - I don't remember the name of his formula - I did
this image for the first time several years ago and I had a
devil of a time reconstructing it.

Subject: (fractint) Formula repost test

I just discovered by reading digest #206 that my last post suddenly has
got the much dreaded 3D disease. This could have been caused by a special
character which might has induced my e-mail client to encapsulate the
post. I have changed this setting and try to repost the formulas and pars.
Sorry for the inconvenience, but I have been so annoyed by all the 3Ds in
the archives that I want to try as hard as possible to prevent my own
posts from screwing up

Hi
F3  is pretty low res.
Try SF6.
ALSO    explore the other possibilities on the same menue.
Just try them and look at the results.
Good Luck,

Here is a very minor modification on your color map.  I got the idea from
looking at some of the astronomy pics I've gotten from NASA....many seem to have
a touch of teal....so that's what I used.

Subject: (fractint) Join us next time!

We had another great fractal chat last night.  Like last time
we swapped pars and formulas and everybody learned something.
Some of the things discussed:

1) Pros and cons of various fractal programs.
2) Best books on fractals and best places to buy them.
3) How to do various things in Fractint.  I learned a
   neat trick from Bob Margolis about how to create
   kaleidoscopic images.
4) How to do things in IRC.

And, of course, we all got to know each other a little better.
If it sounds like I'm trying to seduce others into joining us
next time - you're absolutely right!  It really is a great way
to learn.  Expert Fractint users like Bob Margolis can answer
almost any question on using Fractint and expert IRC users
like Wizzle and Earl can answer almost any IRC question.  So
if you're new to IRC (I was a few weeks ago) or a Fractint
newbie, don't be afraid to join us next time (to be announced
by Wizzle).  It's great fun!

If you need to get IRC software and instructions on installing
and using it, contact Wizzle (I'm pretty good at volunteering
your time, aren't I Wiz? :) ).

Both are available in 16 - Bit and 32 - Bit Windows versions.  You

Subject: (fractint) Having a wonderful time!

I'm still having a great time using Mark "Bud" Christenson's gravijul
formulas.  I found all of these using a variation of gravijul.frm.

Enjoy!

Have no fear, the fractal-art list has been rehosted and has a new administrator.
The new administrator is Damien Jones, and the new address is
[e-mail]. Members of the old list have automatically been moved to
the new address.

Jim and Jay are welcome to post the "fractal of the day" and "fractal of the
night" here, but personally I think it is better the way it is. Their postings are
more visible in that quieter forum.

I'd entertain suggestions for splitting this forum to make it work better for
members.  Should we consider a PAR and FRM only list, and another for
questions and discussion? The truck is splitting the forum in such a way that
one doesn't have all the traffic.

Tim

I didn't have any problems with your first posting.  I'm using Communicator as a

Nice formula and pars!!! I particularly like the julia frm

Guess you mean 800x600. Fractint's got a lot of crazy vid modes, but 600x800

You didn't specify whether you're running fractint from Windows or from DOS.
Windows (especially v3.1) usually doesn't allow hires dos programs to run,
so switching to a higher res is quite unlikely to work. If you *are*
starting fractint from windows, you could better exit and run fractint from
the dos prompt.

Not at all, but I noticed that the aspect ratio has changed to 0.6:1

Was this intentional?
(it is also the way in which all of your most recent postings have been done)

Subject: (fractint) LorentzM with FlexBalls Formula

comment {
This formula applies my FlexBall rendering method to Oliver
Klimek's LorentzM formula.  Both of the pars are zooms into
Oliver's LorentzM_03 par.

Right you are!  That's not only the ol' math instructor in me coming out,
but a reflection of my use of Paint programs. I like that size to work in.
Cheers.  Marie :)

Guess you mean 800x600. Fractint's got a lot of crazy vid modes, but 600x800
:-)
