Brian, Thanks for posting your three fractal variations on Jim's FOTD for April 9th, 2012. I especially like your BP_17_55c, because the triangular figures are darker & appear against a lighter (local) background. The dark background is also very subtly shaded. And you have a very nice, nearly monochromatic palette, too. I was interested in how the palette was used, so I generated red, green and blue histograms for the image: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/BP_17_55c_FOTD_rgb-histogram.gif or: http://tinyurl.com/BP-17-55c-FOTD-rgb-histogram The graphs axes represent: - horizontal -- intensity of color, increasing to the right, with - vertical -- number of pixels with that color The only way I could think of to see the approximate range of colors in your .png image was to convert it to a .gif and look at the .gif color table. The .gif color map is odd, but, interestingly, the .gif image looks surprisingly good. It only had big failures in its colors of the darkest background area colors. The color table/map of the .gif version of your 17_55c .png image is here: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/BP17_55c_map.gif My graphics software created a strange-looking .gif color table from the .png image. It almost looks like the only table locations used are the ones in the next to the bottom row. The rest of the table looks like a standard "stepped wedge" of various increasing color intensities and 8 default Windows colors (I think) in the bottom row. - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane@earthlink.net ######################## ================================================================ Author: Brian Prentice Date: April 10(?), 2012 To: Fractint and General Fractals Discussion Subject: [Fractint] Three Views Here are three interesting views of the same scene from Jim's FOTD for yesterday: http://linuxenvy.com/bprentice/Fractals/Set%2017/BP_17_55a.png http://linuxenvy.com/bprentice/Fractals/Set%2017/BP_17_55b.png http://linuxenvy.com/bprentice/Fractals/Set%2017/BP_17_55c.png Brian Prentice ================================================================
