; FOTD -- May 19, 2016 (Rating A-7,M-8)
; 
; Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts:
; 
; Today's image shows a little of what can be done with minibrots 
; of the seventh order when they are calculated in a new way.  The 
; formula will reveal the new way, which I discovered several 
; years ago while making up new random formulas, most of which 
; drew beautiful blank screens.
; 
; When fractals go above the quintic level, they quickly begin to 
; all look the same, and by the time we reach the tenth order, the 
; difference between orders is hard to notice.  But look at what 
; lurks in fractals of the seventh order, (and higher orders as 
; well), when we do something new with them.  Not only do we have 
; a near perfect minibrot, but there is a very interesting 
; extended pattern surrounding it, partly derived from the parent 
; quadratic Mandelbrot set.
; 
; This opens an entire new world of fractal exploration, at least 
; for those who seek minibrots.  It is also possible to have 
; fractals of fractional orders without those annoying 
; discontinuities, as well as fractals of negative orders.  I have 
; just recently begun exploring this stuff, and I'm sure I'll find 
; more new discoveries, not only with today's formula, but with 
; several new formulas I am working on, but have not yet worked 
; the bugs out of.
; 
; It's such a pleasant day here at FC that I will skip my regular 
; comments about controversial things and enjoy the final rays of 
; sunshine along with FL and the fractal cats.
; 
; Today turned out quite pleasant here at Fractal Central, with 
; partly cloudy skies, a temperature of 72F 22C, and sunshine that 
; was brilliant between the clouds.  The fractal cats took full 
; advantage of the weather by sleeping through the afternoon, 
; while FL puttered in her garden and I searched the internet for 
; things of interest, which there is no shortage of.  The next 
; FOTD will be posted in the not too distant future.  Until then, 
; take care, and eventually righteousness will prevail, but how 
; will we recognize it when it does?
