Today's ; image might or might not be worth the effort of calculating it, ; but it is certainly worth the effort of visiting the FOTD web ; site at: ; ; ; ; where the image is posted already rendered for hedonistic ; instant gratification. ; ; The rating of an 8 might have been an 8-1/2 if I had given a ; little more attention to the colors instead of enjoying the good ; weather. The name "The Center of it All" needs no explanation. ; ; The slowness of the image is due to its extreme magnitude, which ; requires the much slower arbitrary precision math, and also the ; fact that the single-pass method must be used to avoid missing a ; good part of the fine details surrounding the circular central ; mass of color. ; ; ---------------------------------------------------------------- ; ; A record-setting temperature of 68F 20C accompanied by full sun ; made Monday a day to be remembered here at Fractal Central. The ; fractal cats must have agreed, for they forsook their heat ; sources and spent the day by the window, which was open for the ; first time in months to save fuel by letting the warm air inside. ; ; My day was notably lazy. The next FOTD is due in 24 hours, and ; with any luck at all it will appear on schedule. Until then, ; take care, and how long must we wait before the much-ballyhooed ; theory of (almost) everything is finally ready for consumption ; by the eager public? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= TheCenterOf_It_All { ; time=2:01:55.29-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=mandel passes=1 center-mag=0.321914508767132354909185/-0.035213130\ 684051331828963/2.098351e+019/1/80/1.4033219031261\ 9787e-013 params=0/0 float=y maxiter=32767 inside=0 logmap=5693 periodicity=10 colors=000G6JISHB_ClwQkpWkiajbgjWmkXokXpkXrkYskYuk\ YvkYwfUubQtE6NIBRLFUOKYSO`VTdYXgSYdNZaHZ_C_X6`U1`S\ 9aNGbIScEafOkiXtkeynnzpwxmvtjvkgvgdvZbvY`pTZjTXdOV\ _OTUOROOPIONDPPEQRFRSFSUGTWHUXHVZIV_IUcPTfWSjbRmiQ\ poTlkWhgYdc``_bXX`RW_MWZHWXBVW6VV1VT9WSGXQNYPVZNa_\ Mh`LoaPmdSlgWkjZjlbhoegrifulewk`skWpjRljNiiIfiDbh8\ _h4Xe4Wb4VRTIGq6HnHIlSIjbJhmJfxLbqNZjOVdQRYRNSZkZ7\ _RWYfsWuS76LF4FM38T22_1KOBaCLr0Uj7YcEaXKePRhIXlBcp\ 4is9cjEYbJSVOMNSHFOMGLRHIWHF`ICeJ9jJ8iL7iM6iN6mOD`\ LKTIRKFYCCw4AfCIiJQlQXoXdrclujsir1dj6`bBWVGSNKJJlH\ GkGEjFCiE9hD7gC5fB3eJBcQIaZR_fZYogWztU_SU000oQz4A0\ 6IU8JZAOmCXzEezFkzEXWDSAxhl`XUEMCHTKJ_SMf_OmfUkY_i\ Pzgareejefjeceec_eFXeHUeJReKV2DAoBEfLHZVLRcOJmRBvU\ InXOf_U_b`SefKglD`kMVkUPjaJjiGzgEzfCzdAzc8zb9ze9zg\ AziAzkAzmBzoBzqBzsezr_zoUzlPzjJzgEze8zb3z`CzbKzcTz\ d`zfizgqzhozamzWkzQizKPzN } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
