Congratulations Trifox for these achievements. You deserve it! :)

That's the day when my first Mandelbulb zoom on Youtube got more than 5000 views, thanks to Twinbee's link in his memorable page! (I was used to a maximum of 100 views per video :))

I wonder what the next 3D contest will look like now that we have the Mandelbulb family to play with :D

Best wishes for 2010!

@bib
lets not forget, that lycium aka thomas ludwig, won the 2008 fractal art compo with a similar mandelbulb formula ( it also was extracted from the main thread ) but usin 2 as power:
