Title: Polysign presence on fractalforums.com

I'm not much into all of the faces blinking at me above here in my editor.
Is it possible to hide these? I will try some of these features to see what they do.
I'm just used to usenet discussions, but as many here probably know that space is pretty tough going.
Well, here we are posting data to an individual's site and so are subject to the possibility of that individual censoring us.
That is the benefit of usenet. It is a distributed media. Still, I am happy to spend some time here and see what happens.

I've been invited here by Kujonai and also Tommy1729(a usenet name). I've done some simple fractals but never very refined. I do take interest and have some skill with higher dimensions, particularly polysign mathematics

I have done some high dimensional slices of the Mandelbrot function in polysign which I'll try to embed here in the animated form to see if it works:

If that isn't good for your browser then here is a link to the page:

These are exremely simple projections only meant as proof of concept and there is much work remaining to be done. I am happy to receive criticism of polysign and I know that it frustrates many. At its core is the true principle of generalization of sign, and upon accepting this principle then the simplex coordinate systems become geometrically natural. The real number is the two signed number and so its usage within a generalized sign system is in conflict. It is instead one of the members of the polysign family, whose fundamental representation is
    s x
where s is sign and x is an unsigned magnitude. Thus we see that these numbers are a data structure with a discrete component and a continuous component.

Greetings, and a belated Welcome to this particular Forum !!!      :D

Yes, the Newsgroups are quite a bit different than a web-based forum.  And so many ISPs are dropping UseNet from their offered features/options.  After many years, I believe Newsgroups are slowly dying out.
