- Karl,
-
- It's amazing but Winfract (distributed with Fractint in the "Frain 200"
- package can do the job for you. First make sure Winfract is installed and
- runs well. Second, using Winfract, 'tunnel" into the Fractint directory and
- open one of the GIF files that you want to convert. Once it is open in
- Winfract, Execute a file save as command and you will see a drop down menu
- titled "save as". Click on it and lo and behold you see "bitmap". If you
- don't have Winfract, get it from "spanky.com". Hope this helps.

- Subject: (fractint) FOTD, 24-01-00 (Indescribable Brot) (c)
-
- FOTD -- January 24, 2000
-
- Fractal enthusiasts and visionaries:
-
- I tried to think of a name for today's picture. I failed. In
- the end I decided on the name "Indescribable Brot", which says
- more about my inability to find a name than about the image
- itself.
-
- The scene is one of a midget in the (-Z)^1.5+C Mandeloid. The
- midget is located in the East Valley area of a larger midget,
- (if midgets of order 1.5 can be said to have East Valleys).
- Although the scene is pretty well fragmented, there is still
- some order amid the chaos, with the pattern around the midget
- appearing as though it could be part of an infinite spiral.
-
- The formula behind the image is a very simple one from my file
- of Julibrot slices. This particular midget could be interesting
- when seen from other directions. I may give it a try when I
- find a spare moment.
-
- The parameter file runs in less than 3 minutes on a P200 machine
- - -- just slow enough to make a download of the image more
- efficient. That image may be found on Usenet at:
-
- <alt.binaries.pictures.fractals>
-
- and on the Web at:
-
- <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
-
- The fractal weather was dull and cloudy all day. The 7cm
- snowfall that was forecast turned out to be most unimpressive.
- Instead of 7cm we got closer to 7 flakes. The temperature of
- 25F (-4C) was still too cold for the fractal cats.
-
- As for our friend Percy Smedley, he's still trying to decide
- what part of his room he should paint first. He's got a real
- problem because it's always best to start painting in a corner,
- and a four-dimensional room has many different kinds of corners.
-
- Our familiar 3-D rooms have two kinds of corners -- edge corners
- where two walls meet and point corners where the edge corners
- meet the floor and ceiling. 4-D rooms are far more interesting.
- In addition to edge corners where three faces meet and point
- corners where four edges meet, 4-D rooms have face corners where
- two adjacent wall-cubes meet. This is a total of 16 point-
- corners, 32 line-edges, and 24 plane-faces. No wonder Percy is
- having such difficulty making his decision.
-
- I'll reveal Percy's big decision in tomorrow's discussion.
- Until then, take care, and wait with bated, not abated breath.

-
- FOTD -- January 25, 2000
-
- Fractal enthusiasts and visionaries:
-
- There's Juju afoot. When I saw today's fractal I thought at
- once of an African ceremonial mask. The name "Juju Mandel
- Midget" came to mind for no apparent reason, and the name stuck.
-
- The formula behind the image is a very simple Z+1/Z+C, a formula
- that seems ready to draw little more than a blank screen or a
- circle, but draws unexpectedly rich fractals.
-
- The parameter file is a very fast one, but if you would rather
- download the finished image, that image can be found posted to
- Usenet at:
-
- <alt.binaries.pictures.fractals>
-
- and to the World-Wide Web at:
-
- <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
-
- The fractal weather today was about average, with partly cloudy
- skies and a temperature of 36F (2C) that was still too chilly
- for the fractal cats, but warm enough to melt a little of the
- snow. And speaking of snow, a blizzard is forecast for
- tomorrow, with 12inches (30cm) or more by evening. But our
- local weather experts are notoriously bad at forecasting snow,
- so we'll see how it goes.
-
- All is going well with Percy Smedley, our four-dimensional
- painter with a 4-D room to paint. Unfortunately, I found no
- time today to observe his actions. I'll try again tomorrow.
- Until then, take care and, don't get snowed under by a backlog
- of fractals.

- by roaring winds, pink lightning and rolling thunder. It is
- currently snowing so heavily that the individual flakes have
- blended into a fog, which has cut visibility to under 100 feet
- (30 meters).
-
- The temperature is 22F (-5.6C); the wind is north at 30mph
- (50kph); the snow depth is currently 22 inches (56cm), and
- accumulating at a rate of 2 inches (5cm) per hour. And the
- snowdrifts are already over one's head.
-
- Obviously, it's a perfect day for fractals. Early this after-
- noon I gave up trying to keep the driveway clear, and retired to
- my P200 computer to find a fractal. The one I found appears as
- today's FOTD. It is a midget that lies in the fractal that
- results when Z^2.501 is subtracted from Z^2.499.
-
- I named the picture "Fractal Tetragon". A tetragon is another
- name for a square, and today's midget is surrounded by an
- unusual square pattern. (An octagon with pincushion distortion
- lies inside the square, but we'll ignore that for now.)
-
- I gave the tetragon a rather hasty coloring and declared it
- Fractal of the Day. The parameter file is slow enough to make a
- download the better way of viewing the image. That image has
- hopefully been posted to:
-
- <alt.binaries.pictures.fractals>
-
- and to:
-
- <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
-
- from where it may be picked up with a minimum of hassle.
-
- The telephone circuits are totally jammed, so I might have
- difficulty getting the image posted, but by post time, things
- should have slacked off a bit.
-
- The fractal weather we've already discussed; I'm a bit too dis-
- tracted to do justice to Percy Smedley's four-dimensional paint
- job, so I guess that nothing remains but to say, until next
- time, take care, and if you're along the northeast coast of the
- USA, don't get snowed under.

- Subject: (fractint) FOTD, 27-01-00 (A Super Quickie) (c)
-
- FOTD -- January 27, 2000
-
- Fractal enthusiasts and visionaries:
-
- Today's fractal is a super quickie, both in the time I took to
- find it and the time it takes to render. That's why I gave it
- the name "A Super Quickie". I make no unwarranted claims for
- the artistic level of the finished product, nor for its
- mathematical importance.
-
- The expression that was calculated by the M-Mix4 formula to
- produce today's FOTD is 3*(Z^(-4))-2Z+C. I spent about 15
- seconds entering the parameters and all of three minutes finding
- the midget. The image rendered in 30 seconds, making a total of
- less than four minutes from boot-up to finished fractal, and
- believe me, nothing even close to art can be produced in that
- time in such a production-line manner.
-
- The cut-off midget is typical of the disconnected midgets that
- appear in fractals that are not connected. It lies in a tiny
- isolated spot in the East Valley area of the parent fractal.
- The cut-off nature of the midget is reflected in the cut-off
- nature of its surrounding features.
-
- The parameter file is very fast, while the download is not quite
- as fast, but a lot more convenient. The JPEG image can be found
- ready for download on Usenet at:
-
- <alt.binaries.pictures.fractals>
-
- and on the Web at:
-
- <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
-
- I had so little time to devote to fractal hunting today because
- I spent most of the day shoveling snow from the fractal
- driveway. The weather was partly cloudy with a temperature of
- 30F (-1C). The fractal cats did venture onto the porch for a
- few seconds to see what all the white stuff was. But the cold
- and snow was too much for them, and their noses were back inside
- before their tails were out.
-
- Our four-dimensional friend, Percy Smedley, is an artist as well
- as a painter, and it just happens that he is interested in
- fractals. Having two extra walls and one extra dimension to
- dispose of, he decided to paint a picture of the Z^2+C Julibrot
- onto one of the walls. I'll describe the thing he painted in
- the next FOTD, which is only 24 hours away.
-
- Until then, take care, and fractals are everywhere.

-
- FOTD -- January 28, 2000
-
- Fractal enthusiasts and visionaries:
-
- I named today's fractal "Disorder". I gave it this name because
- the picture takes the disorder of seemingly total chaos and
- makes it into a recognizable Mandelbrot scene.
-
- I could just as well have named the picture 'Now you see it; now
- you don't'. The pattern around the midget has a strange
- tendency to totally vanish if the color palette is not set just
- right. A small amount of color cycling will reveal this
- tendency, and change the picture into a nearly featureless mass
- of fractal sand.
-
- The parameters that I entered into my warhorse formula were
- chosen on a whim. The color palette was as good as I could do
- in the little bit of time I had to devote to fractals.
-
- The parameter file is relatively slow, making a download of the
- image by far the better choice. For today only, the image is
- posted in GIF format. The standard JPEG format caused too much
- degradation. The image may be found posted to the binary Usenet
- group:
-
- <alt.binaries.pictures.fractals>
-
- and to the web at:
-
- <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
-
- Fractal Central is still basically snowbound. The fractal
- weather today was sunny but very cold and windy, with a
- temperature of 12F (-11C) that removed all thoughts of going
- outside from the minds of the fractal cats. But they had their
- day's excitement this afternoon, when a large pile of snow slid
- from the roof and landed outside their sunny window with an
- earth-shaking thump. Unfortunately some rain gutter came down
- with the snow, which did nothing for my fractal temperament.
-
- We left Percy Smedley, the fractal painter, painting a picture
- of the Julibrot in the 3-D surface of his wall. Although his
- painting is three-dimensional, it is still only a picture, a
- projection of the actual four-dimensional figure. But even so,
- it can be fit into our 3-D space.
-
- Does this mean that we could visualize the 4-D Julibrot by
- studying a 3-D picture of it? No it does not, for we cannot
- view the 3-D picture in the proper manner. Regardless of the
- angle from which we viewed the picture, we would be looking at
- it edge-on. Our view would be like holding a flat photograph
- edge-on and viewing it in that manner. Our minds would
- interpret what we saw as only a 3-D object. To get a proper
- view of Percy's picture, we would need to see every point of its
- solid interior at a single glance, and this can be done only
- from the direction that is perpendicular to our 3-space.
- However, even the edge-on view of the 3-D projection of the 4-D
- Julibrot is interesting, with its convolutions and its parabolic
- tendrils shooting off to infinity.
-
- While I'm trying to visualize what I just described, I'd best
- shut down the fractal shoppe for another day. Until tomorrow,
- take care, and don't let the lack of a dimension make you flat.

-
- FOTD -- January 29, 2000
-
- Fractal enthusiasts and visionaries:
-
- Today's fractal is . . . well . . . different.
-
- Sometimes I suspect that all my quadratic midgets are basically
- the same. Oh, the patterns around them might vary somewhat, but
- the overall picture is basically unchanged. Today's fractal
- midget laid my suspicions to rest.
-
- I named the image "Patchwork Fractal". It's a fair name, since
- the picture resembles a patchwork quilt perhaps more than
- anything else. Instead of an orderly palette of colors, we have
- the wildest jumble of color imaginable, yet in the midst of this
- madness there is order. There are four straw-colored patches
- arranged in a kind of symmetry, and four greenish arms spiral-
- ling inward, among countless other symmetries.
-
- The expression that was calculated by the MandelbrotMix4 formula
- to produce today's FOTD is 0.13(Z^3)-25(Z^-23)+C -- another
- unlikely combination.
-
- The parameter file runs in six minutes; the JPEG image file
- downloads in two minutes. The choice is up to the viewer. The
- image may be found at:
-
- <alt.binaries.pictures.fractals>
-
- and also at:
-
- <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
-
- The fractal weather was sunny and just slightly warmer today,
- with a temperature of 23F (-5C), which combined with the deep
- snow pack to keep the fractal cats indoors. And believe it or
- not, the TV weather experts are telling of another big snowfall
- come Sunday.
-
- Our fractal friend Percy the painter also spent the day indoors,
- passing the time pondering the picture of the Julibrot figure
- that he just painted in the wall of his room. I suspect that
- he'll hang a four-dimensional model of the Julibrot from the
- ceiling when he finishes the painting, but only time will tell
- how he decides to decorate his room.
-
- If I were Percy, I would have decorated the six walls of my room
- with pictures of the six regular 4-D hypersolid figures. But
- since I am not Percy, I can only describe these figures. I'll
- begin with figure number one tomorrow. Until then, take care,
- and be at peace.

- Subject: (fractint) FOTD, 30-01-00 (Frosty Minibrot) (c)
-
- FOTD -- January 30, 2000
-
- Fractal enthusiasts and visionaries:
-
- I awoke this morning to frost on the window panes. The frost
- melted as soon as the heat came on, but when I saw today's
- feathery midget, I was reminded of those feathery patterns that
- oh so briefly decorated my windows. I immediately named the
- picture "Frosty Minibrot".
-
- The scene is part of the fractal that results when Z^363 is
- subtracted from Z^365 and the difference multiplied by a factor
- of 972. Due to the extremely delicate nature of its features,
- this fractal should be calculated at a resolution of at least
- 1024x768. At that resolution the parameter file renders in 13
- minutes -- slow enough to make the download the better choice.
- The image may be found ready for easy downloading at:
-
- <alt.binaries.pictures.fractals>
-
- and at:
-
- <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>
-
- The fractal weather today was sunny and 32F (0C), still too cold
- and snowy for the fractal cats to venture out of doors. Another
- snow and ice storm is due tomorrow, so I suppose the cats will
- be housebound for quite a while.
-
- Yesterday, we left Percy Smedley pondering his bare walls.
- We'll leave him there again today while I work up a discussion
- of the six regular polytopes in four-dimensional space. I also
- must work up a bit of action for the philofractal list, which is
- once again playing dead.
-
- While I'm working up the action, take care, and the more one
- wonders, the more one searches; the more one searches, the more
- one knows.
