Until then, take care, and is anyone else on the lists?
Jim, I use Fractint to calculate every FotD fractal you post at 1024 x 768, or larger if warranted, on my P400 Win98 machine. I often try out different color maps on the resulting images and occasionally zoom into you images. I don't post the results of my experiments too often because it feels like I'm posting into a black hole. I suspect that there are a lot of members of [Fractint] and [Philofract] who go and view your FotD images that are posted on the web. I think that many people either don't know how to use a parameter file to calculate a fractal in Fractint, or don't have the time or inclination to do so and just go and look at your completed fractals at: http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/FotD/FotD.html I occasionally post a description of how to go about calculating a fractal using Fractint and a parameter file (like the ones you post) to encourage those who have not done this, or forgotten how, to give it a try. Note, however, that whenever there is a controversy or an interesting question is posted, people seem to come out of the woodwork to respond, so I think there actually are quite a few people out there reading many of your posts -- just not so many people who feel inclined to post. I also follow the posts on FractDev, the Fractint development team's email list serve, in hopes that someday I might find a Fractint enhancement task that I can successfully accomplish. - Hal Lane ######################### # hallane@earthlink.net # ######################### -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
