For some reason, the new ; fractal machine will not connect to mindspring, which explains ; why I am sending this through my AOL address. The problems are ; being solved one at a time however, and within a day or two, we ; should be up and running on the same old schedule. But another ; big change is not far off. I am putting the fractal dedicated ; unit on a DSL line, most likely with a new URL address. ; ; As for today's fractal, I doubt that it's worth a rating. The ; image is a simple minibrot in a valley of one of the Z^(1.7)+C ; parent fractals. I named it "Crabby Calculation", which rather ; describes my mood after fighting with disobedient computers all ; day. The image, for all its worth, fails to earn a rating, but ; with its calculation time of 2-1/2 minutes, not much will be ; lost if the image fails to satisfy. ; ; Calculation may be avoided by viewing the finished image on the ; FOTD web site at: ; ; <_http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/_ (http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/) > ; ; With a temperature of 84F 29C and reasonable humidity, Monday ; was fairly pleasant here at Fractal Central. Too many clouds ; kept it from being an outstanding day however. The next FOTD ; will be posted in 24 hours. Hopefully, by then I'll be back in ; the familiar fractal routine. But if no image appears, it will ; be a sign that we ran into more computer problems. ; ; P.S. The fractal cats had a sulky day. They didn't like all the ; disorganization. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; _jamth@mindspring.com_ (mailto:jamth@mindspring.com) ; _jimmuth@aol.com_ (mailto:jimmuth@aol.com) ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= Crabby_Calculation { ; time=0:02:34.77-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=basicer.frm formulaname=MandelbrotBC3 function=floor center-mag=-0.058531449501/+0.648142658462/2264403 params=1.7/0/19/0 float=y maxiter=7500 inside=0 logmap=206 periodicity=6 colors=000yFYwJWvKVuKUtKSrKRqKQpKOoKNnKPmKSlKVkKYk\ L`kNckPckRbkSakU_kWZkXYjXXjXVjWUjVTjUSjTQhSPfRSdQT\ bPU`QVZRWXSXVUYTVZRW_PX`NYaLZbJ_cKaeKbfKcgKdhKeiKf\ jKgkKhlKimJjlIjlHkkHkkGkjFljFliEliDmhDmhCmhBngBngA\ oh9om9or8pv7pz7pv6qr5qm5qh6od7me8lf9jfAigBghCfhDdi\ EcjFajG`jHZkIXlJWmKYnL_nMaoNcpOepNgqMirLjrKkm_jhXi\ cUhZRgUOfPLeKQdFTgBXjC_lEcmF_mGWlYYmV_mTalRbkPdjNf\ iLhhKigKjfKkeKldKmcOmbNlaMl`Nl_NkZMkYMkXMjYLjXKkWK\ kVJlUIlTHmSOlRNlQMlTMkWLkZLkaKjeJjhJjkIinIhmKglKfk\ KejKdiKchKcgKcfKceKccKZZKUUKPPKKLJ90EB3FD6FF9FHBFI\ EFKHFMJFOMGPPGRSGTUGVXGW_GYaG_dHagHbjHdlHfoHhrHl7M\ QHzTMtVQoXVjZZeac`cgWelRgpMJdyMnxOouPosQopSpnTpkUp\ iWqfXqdYqb_r_`rYarVcsTdsQesOgtLhtJltZktYktXktWktVk\ tVktUktTjtSjtRjtRjtQjtPjtOjtOjtNiuMivLiwKixKiyJizI\ izH8z9AzACzADzAFzBGzBIzBKzCLzCNzCOzDQzDRzDTzEVzEWz\ EYzFZzF`zFbzGczGezGfzHhzH } frm:MandelbrotBC3 { ; by several Fractint users e=p1, a=imag(p2)+100 p=real(p2)+PI q=2*PI*fn1(p/(2*PI)) r=real(p2)+PI-q Z=C=Pixel: Z=log(Z) IF(imag(Z)>r) Z=Z+flip(2*PI) ENDIF Z=exp(e*(Z+flip(q)))+C |Z|
