I stayed there only a short time, but I ; did manage to find today's image, which is a slightly skewed ; view of the rectangle. The rating of a 7.5 notwithstanding, the ; name "Same Old Rectangle" describes my feelings about the image. ; ; It took a double rotation of only 1.5,1.5 degrees from the Julia ; orientation to wreak havoc on the once-perfect rectangle, which ; looks like it is being violently twisted by some invisible ; fractal giant. ; ; The surroundings in this fractal area have always reminded me of ; a fantastic rail yard. The rail-like features exist in every ; orientation of the Julibrot in this area. ; ; In my opinion, the coloring is worth the extra half-point I gave ; the image. But I still must admit that most of its worth was ; created by the Fractint program rather than my intervention. My ; main task was to solidly fill the the rectangle by rendering the ; scene with the inside set to bof61. ; ; The calculation time is a speedy 170 seconds, and even this ; brief delay may be avoided by surfing out to the FOTD web site ; at: ; ; ; ; and viewing the finished image there. ; ; A temperature of 39F +4C, a dreary low overcast and a steady ; light mist made Tuesday a day to be forgotten here at Fractal ; Central. The fractal cats seemed to agree. It took only one ; glance out the window to turn their thoughts to pleasures other ; than a sunny window shelf to lie on. ; ; My day was un-notably average. Unless climate change gets ; totally out of control, the next FOTD will be posted in 24 ; hours. Until then, take care, and why can't those selfish con- ; servatives see the danger the earth is in due to climate change? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Same_Old_Rectangle { ; time=0:01:10.39-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=SliceJulibrot4 center-mag=-0.0035611/\ -0.0028388/75 params=88.5/90/88.5/90/-1.7435/0/\ 0.00019/0.07388/2.003/0 float=y maxiter=1500 inside=bof61 logmap=48 periodicity=6 colors=000NAOAAOAAPAAPAAQAAQAARAARAASAASAATAATAAUA\ AUAAVAAVAAWAAWABXACXADYAEYAFZAGZAH_AIWBJXCKYDLZEM_\ FN`FPaFQaERbEScETdEVeEWfEXgEYgDZhD`iDajDbkDclDdmBf\ nDemFdlHckJbjLajN`iP_hRZgTYgVXfXWeZVd`UdbTcdSbfRah\ QajP`lO_nNZpMZrLYtKXvJWxIWtHZpH`lHbhHdeHfaHhYHjUHl\ RHnNHpJHrFHtNy1JjLFWcBFxCGwCHvCIvCJuCJtDKtDLsDMrDM\ rDNqDOqEPpEPoEQoERnESmFSmFTlFUkFVkFVjFWjGXiGYhGYhG\ ZgG_fH`fH`eHadHbdmzImzImzJmzJzmJzmJzmKzmKFqKGpLHoL\ InLInLJmMKlMLlMLkNMjNNjNOiNPhOPgOQgORfPSePSePTdPUc\ QVcQWbQWaRX`RY`RZ_RZZS_ZS`YSaXTbXTbWTcVTdUUeUUeTUf\ SVgSVhRViQViQWjPWkOWlNXlNXmMXnLXoLYpKYpJYqJZrIZsHZ\ t9YsDZsHZsLZrP_rT_rX_q``qd`tfdsgbrhzqhzpizoiznjznj\ zmkzlkzklzjlzimzimzhnzgnzfozeozdpzdpzcqzbqzarz`rz_\ sz_szZtzYtzXuzWuzVvzUxzVwzVvzWzzWzzWzzXzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzSzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz\ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz } frm:SliceJulibrot4 {; draws most slices of Julibrot pix=pixel, u=real(pix), v=imag(pix), a=pi*real(p1*0.0055555555555556), b=pi*imag(p1*0.0055555555555556), g=pi*real(p2*0.0055555555555556), d=pi*imag(p2*0.0055555555555556), ca=cos(a), cb=cos(b), sb=sin(b), cg=cos(g), sg=sin(g), cd=cos(d), sd=sin(d), p=u*cg*cd-v*(ca*sb*sg*cd+ca*cb*sd), q=u*cg*sd+v*(ca*cb*cd-ca*sb*sg*sd), r=u*sg+v*ca*sb*cg, s=v*sin(a), c=p+flip(q)+p3, z=r+flip(s)+p4: z=z^(p5)+c |z|<=9 } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
