Brand new fractal web app: no download required!

[lytnus]

Hey all,

I just finished making a fractal explorer web application that I thought might be interesting for those new to fractals (like I was!). Its simply a webpage with a fractal (mandelbrot or julia) that you can zoom in on/move around. You can change the colours used, and if you find a fractal you want to share, you can copy a link or generate an image of it to save to your computer

Sooo, if you're new to fractals or just want a play, feel free to check it out:

Let me know what you think

PS You'll need a relatively new browser for this: internet explorer 9 or above, and a newish version of firefox, chrome or safari should all be fine!

My latest round of updates to this fractal web app has introduced multithreading (for browsers which support it, eg recent versions of chrome, safari, opera etc, and internet explorer 10 because it's, as usual, a bit slow to catch up!). You can set the number of threads to whatever you like (ideally equal to the number of cores your cpu has), in order to significantly speed up the rendering and saving of fractals when you ramp up the quality or max iterations
