Pretty. JPG is probably not the way to go with fractal images, tho. :-)

I checked around and found ChaosPro(free), which allows one to build
expressions like the one you placed above. It uses a C-like syntax which
is just fine with me :) You can built your own functions. For instance,
I made new min() and max() functions to manipulate complex numbers. Now
if I can just replicate the same fractal I posted here with the program
:/ I came up with something which looks like it superficially, but upon
closer examination, looks like a cheap knock off. Less detail... I must
be doing something wrong. (like staying up till three working on
fractals ;))

It pisses me off that MS dropped DOS. Now all I can do is run this lousy
DOS-box. It supports some games, but not any programs I have made to run
under DOS SVG modes >:(

Er... yuh-huh. ;-)

I'd say "use a virtual machine", except that'll be... a tad... slow.

Not if I want to preserve the detail and color intensity... but I have
dialup over here, so posting PNGs might have been prohibitive. That's
life in the sticks :/

After hacking and slashing my way through ChaosPro's syntax and coloring
methods, I have finally recreated one of my fractals:
http://i447.photobucket.com/albums/qq199/stbenge/complex1qCP.jpg
It's exactly the same fractal! Up until a little while ago all my
attempts looked like cheap toy replicas of the real thing, and I was
beginning to wonder about the quality of ChaosPro. I still need to work
on the coloring method, to make it more smooth, but this is some
progress :) I can now convert all my fractals over to CP and render them
with AA, changed resolutions, etc.
Well I'm excited anyway, even if nobody else is :)
Sam
