This combination creates another parent fractal ; shaped like a boomerang. Today's image is located on the outer ; edge of the boomerang, near the point where it is curved. ; ; The image rates a 7, mostly because I kind of like the soft ; pastel coloring. The name "Brontosaurus" has no connection with ; the image. In fact, I believe the brontosaurus is no longer ; considered a single species of dinosaur, since so many dinosaurs ; of the same general type existed. ; ; The already brief calculation time of 1-1/2 minutes may be ; eliminated entirely by viewing the finished image on the FOTD ; web site at: ; ; ; ; Clouds and rain spoiled Friday here at Fractal Central. The ; temperature of 75F 24C would have been near perfect if the day ; had been dry. As it was, the fractal cats had to content them- ; selves with raindrops on the window. I'm thinking of giving ; them a screened porch by next summer so they can enjoy the great ; outdoors without having to be constantly watched. We'll see how ; it goes. ; ; Except for the weather, things went quite well on Friday, with ; the real work finished by 2pm. But there might be a trip to Old ; Fractal Central coming up on Saturday, so if the FOTD for August ; 2 is late, you will know what happened. Until whenever, take ; care, and live life. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Brontosaurus { ; time=0:01:35.50-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basic.frm formulaname=MandAutoCritInZ function=ident passes=1 center-mag=-0.5013003260653149/+0.012863632787256/\ 5.466798e+010/1/110/0 params=1/2/0.5/4/0/0/0/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=bof60 outside=tdis periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000FFXIAeK5mN9hPDcRHZTLUVPPXTKZWGaVLcUQfTVh\ T_kSdmRioRnrTqtUsvWuxXwzYyE4YL8RRCKYFEcJ7iM1dLA`KI\ XJRTIZPHgLGoHFwIGsJHoKHkLIgMJcNJ_OKWOKSSNUVQVYTXaW\ YdZ_ga`jdakhfkkjknnkrrkuvkxzimygbxfSwdHvc7uZDuVJuR\ PuMVuI`uEeuN`r000dRlmMinPeoSboV_OpiTjgXee`_cdVbhP`\ lKZpEXt9WsIUsRSrZRrgProOiZNaIMU1L`UYWTTSTONTJJSFES\ AAS56S15P65NB4KG4IL3GQ3DV2B_29cVxxYus`snbqjeoehm`j\ kXelffhifdkg`ngXphTrhPuiLwiHyjJdjLLjN1iO7hODhPJgPO\ fPUfQ_eQeeQjZJRTC8YIDaNHUOSMPaEQk6RuNd3KL9I1EN4MS7\ UWAaSIbPPcLWdIbeFifOdjX_neWrnRvwNysLypJymHyjFydHo_\ JfVLYPNOKPFFR6OWPW`gcdy_eoWfeSgXNhUIiSEjQ9kO5lMKUc\ ZCuRVsKmqhH8ZSAPbBFmC6xDFqLNjTWc`cXhlQptJxpKnmLegP\ baT`WXZQ`XKdVGgRDiNAlK6nG3qC0s9CjZObxXZyeVynRywNyk\ Tn_ZcOcTLgQJjNdV7gSBjQEmNHpLKrJNmPVhVac_hZeoUjvY`n\ aRgeH`eGXeFUeEReDOeCLeBIeAFeAChCHjELlGPXUeeGmm2tl2\ kk2bj2Vi2Mh2EmDKqNP9QGCLP } frm:MandAutoCritInZ {; Jim Muth a=real(p1), b=imag(p1), d=real(p2), f=imag(p2), g=1/f, h=1/d, j=1/(f-b), z=(((-a*b*g*h)^j)+(p4)), k=real(p3)+1, l=imag(p3)+100, c=fn1(pixel): z=k*((a*(z^b))+(d*(z^f)))+c, |z| < l } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
