Wuligal, I can not come up with any reason this should not be allowed. They are beautiful and no apology is required. I googled Fractal to see what they are before voicing my opinion.

I use "Ultra Fractals". It's an inexpensive software (under $30.00) that I got on line. They have a try out version at no cost. Do me a favor.....if you get involved with fractals and figure out how all those algorithms work can you clue me in please?


I had a pet algorithm once. Sometimes it ate dirt and sometimes it ate birdseed. Just don't feed them after midnight.

Do you really want a description of the math behind fractals? If so, let's do this off-line. But to start, just think about this. A dot is x raised to the 0 power. A line is x raised to the 1 power. An area is x raised to the 2 power. A cube is x raised to the 3 power. So what is the geometry of x raised to a fraction (say 1.777)? Check out https://fractalfoundation.org/resources/what-are-fractals/ and look at the Educator's Guide for a starter. The first fractal program I had was from IBM and it was free. For a gossipy tidbit, IBM (and Yale) employed Benoit Mandelbrot who was the modern inventor of fractals.

Very nice, love the first one. It would be stunning printed on metal & hung in a prominent position

Thanks for your kind words.

I have seen fractals before here, but these are very nicely done. As for the workings of fractal generators, they use math and complex algorithms to generate constantly reoccurring renderings. They are so many types available online. They are only limited by your imagination. I am personally partial to Mandelbrot. Fractal on!

Wuligal, you did a really nice job. Really like these. I can live very well not understanding how they are done as long as someone does them.
