https://copy.com/6VtbDkx6suFW (https://copy.com/6VtbDkx6suFW) In the blunt end of a Mandelbrot found in a fractal generated using: z = 0.34z^2 + 0.34z^-2 + c and the initial value of z = 1 (one of 4 critical points, the others being -1, i and -i), only two images are produced using the critical points, 1 and -1 produce the same image as do i and -i. Update: 22nd May 2014, replaced file link and added a backup URL as Ubuntu One is shutting down its could storage service.

Is there supposed to be an image here? Because none is showing up. Title: Re: Bridges Crossing the Divide Post by: element90 on February 17, 2014, 07:51:12 PM Yes.
I had a problem with images not appearing with files hosted on Ubuntu One. In order for the pictures to appear I had to disable Adblock Plus for fractal forums. I may have to consider an alternative host for pictures posted to fractal forums. Title: Re: Bridges Crossing the Divide Post by: Kalles Fraktaler on February 17, 2014, 09:14:04 PM Excellent!

In order for the pictures to appear I had to disable Adblock Plus for fractal forums. I may have to consider an alternative host for pictures posted to fractal forums. Why would Adblock Plus treat an image host's embeds as ads? It doesn't do that with Photobucket or Imgur... Title: Re: Bridges Crossing the Divide Post by: element90 on February 18, 2014, 10:51:12 AM I've no idea why it stops pictures on fractal forums it doesn't prevent pictures being displayed on my blog. It does also interferes with the operation of wordpress.com, when scrolling down on the "Blog I follow" page when it reaches the bottom nothing happens but when Adblock is disabled "wait, there's more" is displayed and more posts appear.
Title: Re: Bridges Crossing the Divide Post by: element90 on February 18, 2014, 11:01:44 AM On investigation, the image is blocked due to a filter in effect for ubuntuone with the filter source specified as Malware Domains. I've reported the issue to Adblock.
Title: Re: Bridges Crossing the Divide Post by: Dinkydau on February 18, 2014, 04:21:19 PM I have ad-block disabled here anyway. Fractalforums needs income from advertisements.
Title: Re: Bridges Crossing the Divide Post by: Pauldelbrot on February 19, 2014, 08:48:38 AM I have ad-block disabled here anyway. Fractalforums needs income from advertisements. If you never click on them to potentially buy things, they don't get any income from you being annoyed by an ad, though. Maybe you have the money to do so, though, and sometimes actually do buy things from web ads? :) Title: Re: Bridges Crossing the Divide Post by: Dinkydau on February 19, 2014, 05:15:44 PM Then how does fractalforums earn money? I don't think anyone ever clicks on ads.
Title: Re: Bridges Crossing the Divide Post by: element90 on February 21, 2014, 10:28:56 AM As a result of the problems with pictures hosted on Ubuntu One being blocked, I'll be using photobucket for hosting pictures I post to this forum.

I don't think anyone ever clicks on ads. generally speaking many views is good, at the end of the day just the clicks count, but many clicks on something that does not gets shown that often is suspicious, so delivering many ads is a good thing, and right now we have a stable income for the site! |
