Hello.  My name is Tara and I like fractal math. 

I wrote the Apophysis User Manual here: http://www.acm.uiuc.edu/~troys2/ApophysisUserManual/
And I also made the video "What is a Fractal" here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3YvheUKSEg

Cheers!
Tara

Howdy back and welcome. Thanks for your import with apophysis, it was my favourite software until I got side-tracked by this 3D. If I had more spare time I would still use Apophysis as I have only just scratched the surface of the possibilities. I still use apophysis images as backgrounds in Mandelbulber.  :) :)

Hey tararoys.  I messed around with Apophsis awhile back and could swear I had animation capability.  I recently installed it to find that there was neccessary to code a plugin to create the animation.  what's the real deal on that?

Greetings, and welcome to this particular forum !!!     :D

Always nice to have good documentation and ways of explain concepts to those wishing to learn and understand more.

As to trying to earn a living with fractals, that is something hundreds or thousands of people have tried to do for many decades now.  Few have even come close, in fact, only a handful have even made a decent profit from fractals, but not enough to really support them (they usually earn their main income doing something else).
