FOTD -- June 09, 2012 (Rating 8.5) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: When I named today's image "Riches Beyond Belief", I might have been exaggerating a bit. The image is colorful certainly enough, but beyond belief? Unlikely. The generating formula is the same "Mystic2" that generated the two most recent images. I kept the inside fill and function unchanged, though I did change the numerical parameters. The image uses the same color palette as yesterday's, with only a minimum of tweaking to smooth the colors. The image may be viewed and hopefully enjoyed by running the included parameter file and waiting 25 seconds, or by visiting one of the web sites. Save calculation effort if not time by viewing the finished image on the official FOTD web site at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> A high-definition rendering is available at: <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> The back imaged and discussions are posted at: <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> Too many clouds and a bit of mugginess made today less than ideal here at Fractal Central. The temperature of 84F 29C was fair enough for any outdoor activity however. The fractal cats kept themselves occupied by wandering through their cube complex, while the humans did what humans do on lazy days. The next FOTD will be posted before long. Until whenever, take care, and to avoid disappointment, always expect the worst.
