Subject: (fractint) formula carr2821-a

It would seem that, among my many .frm archive files,
I have carr2821 and carr2821-b, but not carr2821-a.
Could someone send it or tell me where I can find it?


TIA,
        Bud

I found a copy of it in the updated ORGFORM which I have compiled:

      http://www.Eclectasy.com/paul/software/ORGFORM.ZIP

It is located within the "_RC2.FRM" file.

Subject: (fractint) FOTD  24-11-01  (The Parent Fractal [4])

FOTD -- November 24, 2001 (Rating 4)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

In the FOTD discussions I often mention parent fractals.  But in
my quest for ever more spectacular midgets, rarely do I give
these parent fractals the attention they deserve.  In a way, it
is an oversight.  Ignoring the parent fractals is like exploring
the midgets of the Mandelbrot set while ignoring the whole set
itself.

These rarely seen and undeservedly ignored parent fractals have
in them all the features of the M-set.  In addition to the
midgets, they hold buds, filaments, stars, spirals, valleys, and
often features that do not exist in the M-set, such as
disconnected features, areas laced with holes like a swiss
cheese, and phantom features that exist invisibly in the flat
inside areas.

Well, today we take a step toward giving these unsung fractals
the recognition they deserve.  It is only a small step, but it
is a step.  Today's image is not a scene in a fractal -- it is
the entire fractal.  In fact, requiring several out zooms to fit
on the screen, it includes the greatest surface extent ever to
appear in a FOTD.  How far does the bloated fractal extend
beyond the borders of the screen?  I have no idea.  The fractal
may be infinite.

The effect of the image is one of a vast space filled with
floating bits of fractal debris.  At the center, a pair of
joined twin M-sets lie partially covered with this debris.  Many
fragmentary M-sets fill the surrounding area, though none are
intact.  These open areas are sometimes difficult to see, but
can be revealed by toggling in and out of color cycling mode.

Despite the overall chaotic nature of the fractal, embryonic
themes can be found trying to get started.  Perhaps the most
obvious theme is that of butterfly shapes in the upper right
part of the frame, but other less obvious themes exist
throughout the image.

Actually, this particular parent fractal has an overall
non-critical appearance, and is therefore unlikely to have any
impressive midgets lying within it.  Its only impact comes from
its surface appearance.  I named the image "The Parent Fractal"
for obvious reasons.  I rated it at a 4 mainly because it is a
disorganized weakly-composed affair with too many competing
centers of attention.  But even so, it's worth a look.

The parameter file renders in 12 minutes, perhaps a bit too
slowly for an image that rates only a 4.  To avoid impatience,
the completed image may be downloaded from the FOTD sites on the
W.W.Web.  These sites may be found at:

          <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>

and at:

          <http://sdboyd.dyndns.org/~sdboyd/fotd/index.html>

The fractal weather today seemed more like spring than late
Autumn, which made the fractal cats happy.  They really enjoyed
the spring-like sun and temperature of 61F 16C.  But it's been
38 days since the last rain, and things are getting quite dry
around here.  Hopefully, the forecast of week-end rain will work
out.

Regardless of the possibly wet outdoor conditions, the indoor
conditions will remain in the cat-pleasing dry range all
week-end.  As for me, I've got a bit of work to do and some
fractals to find.  Until tomorrow, take care, and think noble
thoughts.

Here's my hints:

1)  Antialias your image, and print it at 150 dpi.
2)  Set the driver to print from your computer.  It will warn you that
it will take more time, but go ahead anyway.  Your printer is unlikely
to have enough internal memory to print a bitmap that is 22", let alone
54".
3)  When loading your media, set the media mode to "Glossy Film".  Your
images will take about twice as long to print, but the quality increase
is dramatic.
4)  Set custom colors on in the driver, and turn the light / dark
control to lighter.
5)  Do test strips, to see how things are going to look, before
launching a whole image.
6)  Open up your wallet.  The paper alone is going to cost you!  Try
sticking to small images until you get the hang of printing your stuff
as you want to see it.

Good Luck!

Subject: (fractint) FOTD  25-11-01  (A Spider and a Web [5])

FOTD -- November 25, 2001 (Rating 5)

Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:

Today's fractal reminds me of a spider's web on a dewy morning.
And the midget at the center could be the spider waiting for its
prey.  With little hesitation I named the image "A Spider and a
Web".  The dewdrops on the web must be supplied by the
imagination, which limited the rating to an average 5.

The outside of the fractal has been rendered with the <tdis>
option, which calculates the total distance the points travel
before escaping.  I chose this option because the normal equal-
iteration-band method produces a decidedly inferior rendering.

I rendered the image with the <passes=b> option because with
today's image it is the fastest, and also because it is the most
fun to watch in operation.

The parent fractal first appears as a rather normal Mandeloid
with extra bays extending along the negative X-axis.  An outzoom
eliminates all resemblance to normalcy however, when a huge
empty circle looms into view to the right of the Mandeloid.
This circle is apparently the extension of the negative real
part of the fractal, which has gone past infinity and returned
from the opposite direction.

The sharply defined borders of the circle would seem to indicate
that no midgets are to be found there.  But the small sharp
spikes around the circle offer a bit of hope.  Examining the
northern spike, I found it filled with signs of midgets.  When I
zoomed in on one of these signs, I found today's scene.

What today's image lacks in quality it makes up for in speed.
The parameter file renders in less than one minute on most
machines.  And if the minor hassle of running a parameter file
is too inconvenient, the finished image may be found posted on
the WWW at:

          <http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html>

and at:

          <http://sdboyd.dyndns.org/~sdboyd/fotd/index.html>

The fractal weather today (Saturday) featured a temperature of
56F 13C, heavy clouds, and occasional light rain.  The rain
amounted to only 1 mm or so, but it was enough to keep the grass
wet and the fractal cats indoors.  Fractal cats are unhappy when
kept indoors, so the cats spent most of the day showing their
unhappiness by doing things such as sitting in obvious places
and sulking with their backs to me, thrashing their tails.

As for myself, I'm neutral about the rain.  But I'm not neutral
about fractals, and I've got 24 hours to find the next one.  The
time to start the search is right after I enjoy a relatively
slow day off.  Until the next FOTD, take care, and be at peace
with almost everything.

Dear Marty Krikorian:

Thanks for the most helpfull and informative hints and tips!

Do you have your own Large Format Plotter? If so
here's a whole host of questions! If you don't mind I'd appreciate your =
taking the time to answer them.

1.) What kind of large format printer do you use/have?

2.) What of Client Software to you use? PhotoShop, etc.

3.) Do you use a software RIP, like Wasatch or PosterShop etc.?

4.) Do you use icc and icm profile files?

5.) Do you use 3rd party vendor Bulk Refill Inks? Whose? Where?

6.) What paper do you prefer?

Looking forward to your reply, I remain,

Yours truly,

TG

Thanks for the info, but  I'm refering to the method by which you program
the config.sys, msdos.sys, autoexec.bat files to allow for a multiboot menu.

I also noticed that part of the problem was my video card A ATI Radeon which
is a really hot Windows card but it hangs and locks upo all the time in
"native mode" with factint.

Thanks all the same1

BTW do you use a large format printer like a DesignJet to print out you
Frafctal files?

I've recently purchased one and I'm also interested in sawpping hint & tips
about printing fractal files into large format posters!

If you don't have a large format printer, but would like to have some of
your prize filez printed up let me know.

Best wishes,

tg

Re: Large Format Fractal Poster Printing Offer

My Dear Fractalist Friends:

In response to the members of the ultrafractal and fractint mailing list who
have communicating with me directly via e-mail about my launching a trial
large format poster printing offer, here is the offer.

This offer is open to the first 25 members of "ultrafractal" and "fractint"
mailing lists who respond directly to this offer by posting their fractal
image onto my secure site. At this point in time there shall be a limit of
one poster to a customer.

I shall be using my HP DesignJet 3500CP Large Format Printer, HP UV Inks,
and Rexam Magic MUG-7 7 Mil/170 Gram High Gloss Resin Coated Photobase
Paper. I will then spay  the print with Krylon Clear Acrylic Spray Paint to
seal and protect the print.

I am considering special projects like printing even larger size posters,
and printing on other media like Canvas Silk, and Clear Film for later.
Let's see how this first project works!

The Offer:

1.) I will print a poster approximately 36" x 30" (net image size may vary
slightly from image to image to allow a 1" to 2" border around the net print
area.) from your digital image which must be upoloaded as an attached file
via e-mail to my secured site at:

[e-mail]

IMPORTANT NOTICE
(You must insert the word "fractal" in the subject line otherwise my
server's Spambots will delete your file.) This is not my "working" email
address. Do not try to communicate me via this address. Please send all
communication e-mail to: [e-mail]

2.) Inspection. I will inspect your image file and contact you via e-mail as
to it's suitability for enlargement via e-mail within 24 hours of receipt of
the file.

3.) Image Quality. I strongly suggest you make the appropriate adjustments
to your software and operating systems to guarantee the densest and sharpest
image possible. No format less than 1024 x 768 should be submitted. It's
been generally accepted that a pixel density of 1280 x 1024 with achieve the
optimal result and should ensure a nice sharp image enlargement to approx
36" x" 30. I will use my little bag of tricks to bring out the details as
best as I can, but please remember, "garbage in gets garbage out". A good
rule of thumb is that nice healthy image file about 700Kb to 1 Meg wiill
yield good enlargement results.

4.) Accuracy and rendition. I will endeavor to give you the best poster
rendition of your fractal image that I possibly can. Please be aware that my
video card and monitor and printer does not interperet and print color the
same way as your video card, monitor, and printer do, so there will be
variations. Due to the limitations, and purposes of this project, exact
color matching is not viable due to these variables an therefore not an
ironclad guarantee of my work. Only physical samples submitted via "hard
copy" can provide the basis of any kind of exact color matching. There are
digital methods of color matching, but they are beyond the means and
capabilities of most members of the "ultrafractal" and "fractint" mailing
lists.

5.) Security and copyright. I work for you. All your images will be
considered as copyright material, and your rights and priveleges under US
law will be observed and protected by me. Once I have completed a print job
for you, I will delete all files, and destroy all test strips, and proofs. I
will not make any un-authorised copies of your original work. I will only
print as many copies as you order me to print for you. I work alone in my
apartment. No one has access to my computers and servers other than myself.

6.) Turn Around. I work as a computer technician in and around Woodstock. I
am a kind of country doctor for the PC users in my area so I don't get home
until 6:00 PM. I will endeavor to respond to all orders & enquiries within
24 hours. Upon payment I will endeavor to complete and ship all orders
within 48-72 hours.

7.) Price & Payment. The all inclusive price is $50.00. This price is
granted to the first 25 members of the ultrafractal and fractint mailing
list community who responmd directly to my offer by submitting one suitable
fractal image for enlargement and large format printing to 33" x 36" poster
size. This price includes printing, packaging, USPS Priority Confirmed
Delivery & Insurance to anywhere in the continental USA. Fractalists in
Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, Mexico, and the rest of the world will have to pay
for the extra postage. If you want overnight delivery, then Fedex overnight
service is available at an extra cost.

8.) Terms. Upon my notifying you of the suitability of your fractal image
for printing, please send me payment via PayPal or Money order, Please do
not send me any regular, business, or personal checks. If you send me a
check I will wait the 2-3 weeks until the check has been irrevocably cleared
and posted to my account before I begin printing.

I like PayPal, it is easy, fast and reliable. Current PayPal users please
post the $50.00 to my email adderess at: [e-mail]

New users to PayPal simply login to the following URL with your Web Browser:

https://www.paypal.com/refer/pal=tgparker%40worldnet.att.net

9.) Guarantee & Returns. I will guarantee that my work shall be performed on
a "best effort" basis, & shall be free from any manufacturing or printing
defects. Color matching is not a basis for a return or refund. If you are
not satisfied with the print I will redo the print for free subject to your
written "hard copy" complaints, comments, and instructions accompanied by
the original print in question sent back to me at your own expense. There
will be no cash refunds. You will be charged for the additional postage. All
complaints must be communicated to me within 7 days of receiving the print
from me. Any physical damage, modifications, or changes to the print will
void any waranty obligations.

I hope that his covers just about everything and has placed it all on a
sensible business footing. I want you all to know that I look forward to
serving you in this way with a sense of excitement and pleasure, and I am
confident that I will give you the best possible print that can be extracted
from your Fractal Image.

All the best, and thank you again for thinking about me.

Tony Parker
