The art rating of an ; 8 reflects the time and effort I put into smoothing the colors. ; The math rating of a lowly 3 indicates that the formula became ; totally familiar and overworked quite long ago. ; ; With the image lying at a depth of over 10^(40), arbitrary ; precision math is a must. Even so, with a calculation time of ; 10 minutes, the image is still relatively fast. And visiting ; the web sites will bring satisfaction almost instantly. ; ; Save the ten minutes by checking the finished image on the FOTD ; web sites at: ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; The day began with 2cm of snow, but by midday the sky had ; cleared, and the afternoon brought a lot of sun with a chilly ; temperature of 23F -5C. Meanwhile, the fractal cats non- ; adventures continued unabated. They passed the day playing, ; eating and sleeping, hardly an exciting routine to report. The ; fractal humans were almost as active as the cats. ; ; The next FOTD will probably be posted in 24 hours. Until then, ; take care, and scientific investigation makes the existence of ; unpleasant things such as bigfoots, mysterious triangles, space ; aliens and ghosts very doubtful. Unfortunately it also makes ; the existence of pleasant things such as God, and a life after ; death in heaven very doubtful. So should we believe everything ; discovered by science, believe nothing at all, or believe only ; the things that make us feel good, while we doubt the things ; that question our pleasant beliefs? ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jimmuth@earthlink.net ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= A_VeryDeep_Scepter { ; time=0:10:00.00 SF5 at 2000MHZ reset=2004 type=mandel passes=1 float=y bailout=25 center-mag=-1.296355138173036030353332640789145335\ 180420092/0.44185160573519811101978990252181767953\ 82451352/2.474369e+040/1/-45/ params=0/0 inside=0 maxiter=2500 logmap=291 periodicity=6 colors=00000B00C00D10E11F12G23H24I35J36K47L48M59N5\ AO5BP6CQ6DQ6ER6FS6GT6HU7IV7JW7KW7LX7MY7NZ8O_8P`8Qa\ 8Rb8Sb8Tc9Ud9We9Yf9_g9ah9chAeiAgjAikAkkCliDlhFlgGl\ fIleKldMlcOlaQl`Sl_UlZWlYYlX_lWalVclUelTglSilRkmPl\ mOmmNnmMomLpmKqmJrmIsmHtmGumFvmEwmCxmBymAzm9zm8zm7\ zm6zm5yn7xn8wn9wnAvoBvoCuoDuoFtoGtoHsoIsoJrpKrpLqp\ MqpNppOppPopQopRnqTnqUmqVmqWlpXlpYkpZko_jp`jpaipbh\ ocgodfneengdnhcmibmjamk`ml_mmZmnYmpXmpXmpXmpXmpXmo\ XmoXmoXmoWmoWloWloWkoWknWjnVjnVjnVjnVinVjnVinUimUh\ mUhmUgmUgmUfmTfmTemTelTelTelTelSelSelSelSelSekSekR\ ekRekRekRejReiReiRehQegQefQgeQeeQddQdcQdbQdaQd`Pd`\ Pd_PdZPdYPcXPcXPcWPcVPcUPcTOcTOcSOcROcQOcPOcOOcOOc\ NOcMNcLNcKNcKNcJNdPVeUWfUXgUYhUZic_jc`kcalcbmccmcc\ mccmccmmcmmcmmcmmcmmcmmcmmcmmcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmz\ cmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcm\ zcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmzcmz } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint ;
