Buddhabrot fractals

[Buddhi]

A large colored 8000x8000 render made with the lastest version:
http://telin.ugent.be/~jdebock/BuddhaBrotMT/BuddhaBrotMT-8000x8000-001.png

Took about 21 hours to render.

Very good render. Image quality is really impressive! 21 hours is not so long to render something like this.

That is the main feature of my renderer, speed.

Here is a high resolution Anti-Buddhabrot:

you only used two colours on the anti bbrot?

[johandebock]

It's a color palette with mixes of red, yellow, white and black.

For instance, I think that c=-0.3125=-5/16 has a rational attractor.

a complex number has two components. You only show one component here.

[kram1032]

My guess is, he meant -5/16+i*0

'Fraid not:

The image "http://telin.ugent.be/~jdebock/BuddhaBrotMT/BuddhaBrotMT-8000x8000-002.png" cannot be displayed, because it contains errors."

This using FF 3.6.3.

Apparently the PNG encoder you used is not compatible with the PNG decoder in FF 3.6.3.

Unfortunately for you, over one quarter of users are probably using FF 3.6.3 (and most of the rest IE 8.something whose compatibility with your PNG encoder I wouldn't vouch for either, given that FF is usually closer to adhering to standards than anything out of Redmond).

[johandebock]

Just tried with Firefox 3.6.3 and it has no problems reading the PNG. Xnview and Acdsee classic also have no problems.
I use libpng to write out the png.

Paddlebrot: No porblems looking at it here, either...
I tried both FF 3.6.3 and the test-version for the new youtube video format. Not that that should make much of a difference

[Pauldelbrot]

I don't know why two people are now accusing me of lying. But I do know that anyone with Firefox can click the link and see what I saw, so the truth will out, and all that.

Since the poster of the image is one of the ones accusing me of lying, I'll take that as indicating that they have no wish or intention to fix the image, so I guess it'll stay broken. And I'm not going to try viewing it in IE -- I hate IE. So I guess that's that.

NOBODY is accusing you of lying.   

They are merely stating the truth - the image appears just fine in FF 3.6.3

Here:



That's a 50% resolution screenshot as proof it works.

If the owner of the image is offended that I posted his work this way, just let me know and I'll remove it Instantly!

I was not trying to cause a problem, rather trying to resolve a misunderstanding.

I'm sorry, Pauldelbrot, but the problem must be on your end...

[kram1032]

O.o
I wonder, how I accused you of lying? Just stating, that it works on my end doesn't mean, I think you lie.

Hooo ... drama \o/

Hi Paul, I'm also not accusing you of lying - for some reason it's obviously not working for you - but it also works here in Firefox 3.6.3 under Windows XP.

[johandebock]

Nobody is accusing anyone of lying. I just stated that I could view the image without problem in the stated programs.
The images can be posted, printed, anywhere you want in any format you want. Just give credits.

I'm also working on 16-bit png output but I'm still looking for good programs to view them.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

@Pauldelbrot: Can you test if you can open it with a picture viewing program? Maybe for some reason the browser won't open it completely.
I use the standard libpng-1.2.40 library to write out the png's, normally that shouldn't be the problem.
