excellent!  I especially enjoyed "pinwheel2" from the M-sets...

Devil's haircut & Black Hole do me good!

Fire Down Below is just too great... that's my all-time favorite...

Thanks for the images...

One thing though, the first "Edge Fractal" on your pages doesn't seem to
load.  I'm using Navigator 4.0.5 on my Mac (I'm doing the Mac port of
fractint).

Thanks again for the neat eye-candy...

Subject: (fractint) beyond 256 with Fractint?

Hello all,
    I've recently acquired a powerful new computer and of course
Fractint was one of my first transfers from my old computer.  Now that I
am not bound by limited colours I have noticed there are some video
modes described as VESA TrueColor 24 bit, I tried rendering Maderblot
with this but got only the faintest blue in the light regions.  I'm
hoping there is some way to have an equivalent of the 256 colour map but
even if I could simply have al the colours run through by the '+' key it
would be great.  Anyone know how to actually use these TrueColor modes?

Thanks
Mark

Hi Kathy! I think your post is the answer - the first two suggestions are
going to do it. Thank you!

Subject: Re: (fractint) 5 pars (jm06)

Can't overload me! I have just set up a 2nd PC ('Laurel')
doing nothing all day but batch process PARs! Last sunday
it cooked 1200 images at 320x200. Simple job to scan the
results to decide which to keep and enlarge to 1024x768.

The 'big iron' ('Hardy)' then spent a merry couple of hours
doing the final good images, without using too much time
away from 'real work'.

Subject: (fractint) Newbie driving printer

After laboring with an Amiga 4000 and my own programs for many years, I
have just been introduced to Fractint on a PC laptop with 1024 X 768 X 256
(XGA) screen. Wow!!  But how do I get it to drive my Epson Stylus Color 600
printer?  At present, it just prints spaced-out lines, no color, and the
occasional line of alpha garbage.  One Mandelbrot is the right width but
stretches out over two sheets of paper.

Hi.  You use a graphics program, open the file
and then choose print.  PaintShopPro is good
and inexpensive and you can download it as
shareware and use it for 30 days for free.  I
don't have the URL but I think it is easy to get as a
search for PaintShopPro or Jasc software.   Phone is
612-930-9171.   ( I think this is known as the partially

I'm answering to the list because this is a broad request to anyone on
geocities. Please stop the pop-ups. They don't care how much resource I
have on my machine to spare when they throw one of those at me. I've had
HUGE javascripts come in those pup-ups. At least the geoguide are size
controlled at the moment. My mother's barely pentium can take 30 seconds
or more to load the watermark, 30 seconds for each pop-up. Mothers copy
of IE is more susceptible to death by pop-up than her netscape.

Your home page had 2 pop-ups. Check to see that an old copy of the
pop-up code at the bottum isn't still there when uploading changes. Even
leaving a pop-up in the background un-minimized won't keep a new one
from opening if there is an extra chunk of code. I don't think they plan
to fix anything wrong with the pop-ups. I bet they're paid by the number
of pages with geoguides/banners on them.

For surfers.
Turn off javascript when wandering around geocities and bye-bye
watermark.

I'm sorry to say you'll have to wait until the release of fractint v20 to
enjoy true color modes. I you want to create truecolor fractals before then,
you could best go for programs like Tierrazon (probably the second program by
members of this list) or UltraFractal. Both work with your win9x.

Are you kidding?? Do you really think we WANT those annoying pop-ups?

It's not even up to us. We give the HTML source and then GEOCITIES itself adds
the popup and watermark ("geomark") code.

And you're mother's "barely pentium" is pretty superior to a lot of other
systems used.

Sorry for my negative tone, but your mail agitated me.

Much better.  However, Lava Flow on the Tierazon doesn't load.  Also,
the midi control box on the main page is truncated.  I didn't have any
problem with centering.

Nice images, BTW.

Elaina,

 - I'm answering to the list because this is a broad request to anyone on
 - geocities. Please stop the pop-ups.

GeoCities doesn't really give you much choice.  If you host your site
there, you either (a) pay, (b) include ads on your pages, or (c) get
pop-ups and branding.  I have disabled all JavaScript for geocities.com in
my web browser, so I don't get them; it's simple and effective, but makes
some pages not work right.  The price of some brain-dead marketing geek at
GeoCities figuring this was a good idea.  Just because you *can* do a
thing, doesn't mean you *should*! :-)

Things like this are why I left GeoCities.  (Well, that, and because I
*could* leave GeoCities.)

I can post detailed instructions on disabling JavaScript for all GeoCities
web sites in IE4 if people are interested (and don't know already how to do
it).

Hi Faye. I'm browsing with Netscape Communicator 4.06, and the only problem I
had was the missing links. Besides, at 800x600 it centers very well.

By the way, and this goes for the whole list, how can I run fractint? I
downloaded a zip file, unzipped it, but can't make it run. Note that I don't
have C installed on my computer. Is there any way to get an .exe file?

I think my page is loading correctly for both Explorer and Netscape now.
Netscape is the one
that caused a lot of problems.  Even though it is centered, one time it
comes up on the
left - the next on the right.  If you haven't visited or couldn't get it to
work correctly - please
give it another try.  I welcome all comments.

Faye--

To center your full-size images, try using the <CENTER> & </CENTER>
commands within each cell of the table.  That should do the trick.

BTW, nice work - I voted "Western Horns" in Fractint and "Lava Flow" in
Tierazon..

I'd like to try disabling the Geocities JavaScripts - I don't however
run IE4; I'm using Netscape 3.0.  Is there still a way?

Paul,

You can disable JavaScript, but only globally (i.e. for ALL sites on the
net, not just GeoCities).  To do this, choose Options > Network Preferences
> Languages and uncheck Enable JavaScript.  Click OK.

For Netscape 4, choose Edit > Preferences, select Advanced, and uncheck
Enable JavaScript.  Click OK.  Again, this is a global setting, and will
affect ALL sites, not just GeoCities.

For IE3, I could not find a way to disable JavaScript.

For IE4, choose View > Internet Options > Security.  Choose "Restricted
sites zone" and choose Custom for the security level.  Choose "High
Security" and "Reset".  Scroll down to Scripting/Active Scripting and
choose Disable.  Click OK.  Now click Add Sites, enter
http://www.geocities.com, and click Add.  OK, OK.  Any other sites you want
to disable JavaScript on (like maybe Tripod) you can just add, without
having to mess with the Custom security settings again.

Try Xoom. ( http://xoom.com/ )  11 megs free, only require one link back to
Xoom pages, no adverts/pop ups.  Occasional they send you 'special offer'
emails - as far as I've found, these are the only drawbacks.  I don't know
about the other services that Geocities offer, but Xoom does seem quite good.
Also, the URL's tend to be much shorter (e.g. mine is
http://members.xoom.com/lukeplant/  ).

Hope this isn't too off-topic
