if you experiment with the fractals with an awareness of the algorithms..you develop an idea of what an algorithm will produce.you develop a better sense of how to alter your algorithms to active some really cool affects.

ScarletRose: there are many programs you can download & use to make fractals,there are links to them on here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal


these are good:

LuckyCat9: honestly,are they your,originally done by you?what program do you use?
I experiment with a lot of fractal algorithms,but never published any of mine.

hey,I was talking to several people on another board here re natural symmetry & fractals.
if you want to see some cool & interesting stuff about math /art,natural symmetry & fractals.
then go to this link.there are many related subjects mentioned on this webpage:

Anna LyzeThis: in this current world the media throws so much at us & at kids.
shielding them from it all is impossible,its unrealistic to think we can.
I think it is better to see things with you kids talk about it.
it prepares them better to deal with this world.

hey,hi people,this is photography again,but this is truly really cool:

This photo has 2,487,227,305 pixels in it,and the producers call it "the largest digital panoramic photo in the world.
If this photo were printed, it would measure 6.67 m by 2.67 m (300 dpi). The photograph shows Delft and its surroundings in the autumn of 2004. It was taken from the top of the Electrical Engineering faculty of Delft University, at a height of about 100 m, by TNO

I have decided that yes,if I am ever going to sign up for a site,I will think carefully & pick one.
I review many many things in many catagories
---
as for game servers,I think I will get the $ together/see re sponsorship & selecy brainking ....why?
good graphics,but not excessive to the point of slowing down the server.
no intrusive popups.
good games,that are ever growing & fresh
good customer & community service
good community atmosphere

ScarletRose,I was going to post a cool photo here ..I think of photography as an art form..but it is so diverse,it could be a discussion board in its own right...hey fencer,if you see this,what do you think?
well heres the photo anyway,you might like it:

http://outreach.jach.hawaii.edu/pressroom/2003-estar/etacarinae-large.jpg

something about the pic:
The massive star Eta Carinae. This star went through a giant explosive outburst about 150 years ago, suddenly making it one of the brightest stars in the southern sky

this strange FTP site has some unusual artistic renditions of christ.

LuckyCat9:
re : Getting to know your artist
++
so true,there are many artists who are interesting to learn how they lived,what they did,what was happening culturally,policitally,socially,philisophically in their time.

also there are many works of art that are interesting to find out why it was painted,what the artist was trying to say.

I could make a list

ty now there is an art subject not in my "art directory"ty cathy.

http://www.muraldesign.co.uk/TrompeLoeil/tuscany_page.htm

also painted exterior building walls like this:

ArtfulDodger: re:
buy her real paints.

I'm sure I dont have to remind anyone to make sure they are safe non toxic paints.
I just saw a show all about the history of the chemistry involved in art.it was really interesting.
today we have many modern safe colours.but many of the old masters used compounds based on arsenic,cadmium,lead,antimony,etc.. many had to be used with care.
even today,in ceramics,many of the glazes are toxic.

Foxy Lady: re:
LOL my oldest did something like that but the lipstick was on her.

my mom wasnt impressed,lipstick if very hard to remove the stains.

Foxy Lady: dont worry,if she is as clever & creative as her mom,she will think of something.
