Besides Fractal Forge and UF, what are some of these other fractal programs that you have had??
Those 2 programs are the ones that I have had but I recently found out about apophysis from this board! I downloaded it and see another obsession for potential fun (btw - thanks you guys!

Basically I like to create fractals for fun and my objective is to be able to have a basic shape and be able to make different variants of it (something that looks easy to do with apophysis). I know it will help me in business as well since I am a consultant and some of the fractals look just like jewelery. The kind of thing that jewelery designers can use when they are designing their stuff. I'm not a designer myself but with these fractal programs I'm so very tempted.
So far I have just a couple of actual fractals that I have made on my website but I have countless ones that I have done offline! I remember seeing a website where someone will design a fractal using a person's birthdate or social security #(although I don't recommend giving out one's ss#) :-[
By the way this gives me a great idea of an entry to post to my blog
But getting back to here I love creating fractals - I'm just to the point now where I'm trying to control how the beginning of the fractal looks first so that I can make different varients of it.
