We ; are coming close to the end of the list, but, as today's image ; shows, the goodies are not yet quite exhausted. I did little ; exploring in today's formula. I did not need to, as the center ; of interest was obvious in the default image. The perturbed ; versions merely twist and distort the spidery arms that give ; this formula its name. ; ; The rating of an 8 is due almost entirely to the coloring. I ; could not resist the urge to turn the scene into another endless ; pathway to the infinite. The reason for the name Spider-Arches ; is obvious. The rating of a 6 may be a bit overdone, but I ; rather like the strong coloring. ; ; The arched pathway may be seen, but not traversed, by running ; the included parameter file, or by downloading the finished GIF ; image from: ; ; ; ; The clouds increased as the day progressed here at Fractal ; Central on Tuesday, but the rain held off until after dark, ; which gave the fractal cat duo a pleasant afternoon in the holly ; thicket. The temperature of 52F 11C was a bit chilly, but they ; didn't seem to mind. When evening came, only a small treat was ; needed to keep them happy. This morning is starting with heavy ; rain and high wind -- two things the cats do not like. I fear ; they will not have another good day. ; ; My day will be within reason, which is all I could ask for. The ; next fractal is only 24 hours away. Until then, take care, and ; did fractals exist before the big bang? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Spider-Arches { ; time=0:01:49.19--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=spider passes=1 center-mag=-0.0086\ 7751/0/19.33333/1/-90/3.88578058618805e-016 float=y params=0/0 float=y maxiter=255 bailout=9 inside=bof60 outside=tdis logmap=yes periodicity=10 colors=000mtzafpSXfPPZLJRP8PU7LY6Ib5Eg4Bk38nB7pI6r\ Q5ua4vi3xu2zz2uz9puGkqNgnUbm`YlgUkmTjkSijRhhQhgPge\ OfdNfbMeaLd`KdZJcYIbWHbVGaTF`SE`RH_RKZROYSRXSnMcpW\ drfftphvziklaaZUSMNRNPRORQPSQPUQQWPRXPRZPS`OTaOUcO\ UeNVfNWhNWiPRlQNnSJqTFsVBvW7xX8wY9vZ9v_Au`BtaBtbCs\ cDrdDreEqfFpgFpdHqbIr`JrZLsXMtVNtTPuRQvPRvNTwLUxJV\ xSYv``tibrrepzgnxhmvhmthmrilpilnilljkjjkhjkjegk`dl\ XamSYnNVoJSkMSgPScRS_USWXSSZSOaSLcSLbVLaYLa_L`bL`e\ L_gL_jLZmLZoMbiMfcMiYMmSMpNPpLSpKVpJYpI`pHcpGfpEip\ DlpCopBrpAtp9uoAunBumBulCukCujDujDviEvhFvgFvfGveGv\ dHvdHnfIfhI_iISkILlIMkHMjHMiHMiHMhGMgGMgGMfGMeFMeF\ MdFMcFMcEMbEMaEMaEVZObWYkTgsQqoQskQujTvjVwiXwiZxh`\ xhbyhdyffxegwdhvcivbju`kt_lsZmsYnrXoqVppUqpTroSsnR\ tmQumOtlMtkKskIsjHsjFriDriBrh9qg8qg6qf4pf2pe1pe5lf\ 9hfDegGagKZhOVhSRhVOiZKibHjfDjiAjkCklElnGloImqKmrM\ nsOnrhOleXgbdb`lcbmdcnedo } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ;
