The scene is located on ; a filament in the East Valley area of that midget. ; ; I named the image "Ringworld" in recognition of one of my ; favorite novels. (In the near future I must name an image ; "Rama" in recognition of another favorite.) ; ; After not-so-careful consideration, I decided to rate the image ; at an average 5. But sometimes the average can be deceiving. ; When the very short render time of 21 seconds in considered, the ; overall value leaps to a monumental 1416. ; ; Despite the speed of the parameter file, it is still quite ; convenient to visit the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; and download the finished GIF file from there. ; ; Near perfect weather on Monday and Tuesday made the fractal ; cats happy. It made the fractal human happy also, but with so ; much to do, he had little chance to enjoy the conditions. On ; Wednesday a short but intense thunder-storm broke up the cats' ; afternoon, and sent them scurrying for cover. Today is starting ; cloudy with more showers. With two tropical disturbances coming ; this way, it remains to be seen how things will go in the cat ; world. And with any luck at all, the next FOEFD will appear in ; a few days. Until then, take care, and don't give up hope. The ; FOEFD will soon revert to the FOTD. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Ringworld { ; time=0:00:21.20--SF5 on a P200 reset=2003 type=mandel passes=1 center-mag=-1.52167130216204700/+0.000018953220831\ 17/1.477707e+012/1/-130/0.00825556090964243289 params=0/0 float=y maxiter=3600 bailout=9 inside=0 logmap=556 periodicity=10 mathtolerance=/1 colors=0005AU4CW3EY2G_1Ia1Kb3I`4GZ6EX7CV8ATA8RB6PC\ 5NH4LM4NR3RW3V`2_e2cj1go1ks1or8iqFdqL_mNYjPWgRUcTT\ `VRYWPUYOR_MOaKKcJHdHEfFAhE7jC4lA1m97lCDlEIlGOkITk\ KZkNdjPijRojTtjVqcYoX`mQcjJfhCif6ld7kc8ja9j`9iZAiY\ BhWBgVCgTDfSDfQCePBdOAcNAbL9aK8`J7_I7ZG6YF5XE4WD4W\ CXTCxRBuNAsJ9qG8oC7m86k5Hc4RW4aO3kG3u93tF6tK9tPCtU\ FtZIsdLsiOsnRssUsxXUvP4uI6tL8sNArPCqRDqTFpVHoYJn_K\ naMmcOleQkgRkiShjTekUblV`mVYmWVnXToYQpZNqZLqWMkTNe\ RN`OOVMPPJPKHQEER8CR3BQ7BQBBPFAPIAOMAOQ9NT9NX9N`8M\ c8Mg8Lk7Ln7Kr7Kv7Ky9MsAOnBQiDRcETZFVUHXPKYJM_EXa9Y\ d4`iHfpTnwdpqamlZjgWhbTeXQbSN_NKYIIUHMVGPUFSUEVUDZ\ TCaTBdUAgUAjSCjRDjPFjYpY`nVcmSflPhkMfgKddIb`GaYE_V\ CYRAXO8VK6TH4SE3VODXXNZfX`ofbkddhbfd`ha_jYYlVWnRUp\ QTrRRtSPvTOtURsVUrWXpXZoYanZdm_fk`ijalicogeqfgteiw\ dkyemxeoxeqxesxeuwezweywezwezvezvezvezvhzyizwjzujz\ tkzrlzplzomzmnzknzjozh6zH } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ;
