I often edit the parameter files to simplify them, and I ; failed to remove the second float=y entry. ; ; The idea for today's image sprang directly from yesterday's ; image. Today, I used the manzpower formula to examine the main ; spike of the Z^(2.0000001)+C Mandeloid in the East Valley area ; of the largest minibrot. Once again I checked the edge of the ; infinitely divided spike, where I found today's image a short ; way inside a rudimentary spiral. ; ; The image is notable in that the usual minibrot at the center ; actually consists of two overlapping minibrots, which are a ; result of a prominent discontinuity running through the center ; of the frame. ; ; I named the image "Edge of Eternity"; I don't know why. Then I ; rated it at an 8.5 because I kind of like it. The calculation ; time of 4-3/4 minutes will cause difficulty to no one, unless ; their machine can't do DOS. And even those with DOS-challenged ; machines can see the image by going to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; Brilliant sun and a temperature of 46F 8C brought out the best ; in the fractal cats here at Fractal Central on Monday. My day ; was quite busy. The next FOTD, the last of 2008, will be posted ; in 24 hours. Until then, take care, speak softly and carry a ; toothpick. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Edge_of_Eternity { ; time=0:04:44.99-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=manzpower bailout=16 inside=0 center-mag=-1.74973734800525/+0.00000049270129877/\ 2.96469e+011/1/-10/0 params=0/0/2.0000001/0 float=y maxiter=17500 periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000pDzqCzm0zsCzyYzzstzzmzzhzzfzzczu_yqXwmUu\ hRsdOq_KpWFmRCkM7jH3hC0f50d00c00a00Y00W10S50PC0MH0\ JK0FP0CS07X03a10d30h50m70p90tC0z00y50wC0tH0sM0pR0o\ W0oX0m_0jX0gU0dS0aP0YM0WJ0SH0PD0M90J50F30C00700300\ 000500900D00H01K03P05S07W09Y0Ca0Df0Fh0Hk0Jo0Kq0Pz0\ Ow0Mt0Kq0Jo0Jk0Hh3Ff7DcCD_DCXH9UK7RO5OR5KS3HW1DY09\ a00d03c05c57cD9aJDaOFaUH_YJ_cM_gO_mPYqRYuUYzWXzXXz\ YXz_X00a00d00g01j15k19o3Fq3Jt5Mu5Py7Sz7Xz9_z9czCfz\ 0iz0kzCmzMnzWozTpzcqzcrzcszctzcuzcvzcwzcxzcyzcwzaw\ zawzavzarzamzahzaczaZzaUzaPzaMz_MzYOzXRzWSzUUzUXzS\ YzR_zPczOdyMfuMhtKjqJkpHomFpkDqhDtgCud9wc7z_5zY0zX\ 5zX9zXDyXHwXKuXPsXSqXWoXYmXakXfhXhgXkdXocXsXYqaXpd\ XogWojWmmUkpUjsSptXmuUjuSguPduOWHMaCJeAHh5FlCCoF9q\ J5sM3tP0tS0uW0wY0ya0zd0zg0zj0sf0ka0cX0WS1MO5DJ91DF\ 07J01M07J0CH0HF0KC0P90S70W30_10c00g00j00m00j03g79d\ DFaKKYPPWWUSaYPfcMkgJpkFu } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
