END OF AN ERA, FRACTALFORUMS.COM IS CONTINUED ON FRACTALFORUMS.ORG

Hello, I'm troutscout. I'm new here. And I'm interested in learning how to make fractals. So I purchased and downloaded the fractal extreme software. I want to make fractals using some of my photos. But when I try to open a photo I get a message that says can't load file. File is corrupt or the wrong type. Does anyone know how I can remedy this problem? I would really appreciate any help. Thank you

Hello and welcome again!  

Making Fractalled Photos is one of my favorite pass times, and what drew me to fractals in the first place.

I also never used Fractal Extreme, so am not sure how it works for that.

In my experience the single easiest program I ever found to make this sort of thing is a bit old, unstable, and never made it out of Beta...  but I still use it a lot more than most people would think sane given all the new stuffs out there.

It's called Mutatorkammer, made by our Admin long ago - but still available in our Downloads section.  It runs best on older systems, if you don't have an older system - run in "Compatibility Mode" for Windows XP to get maximum stability.

Here's one of my favorite examples, using an image of my Beloved  



If that's the sort of thing you want to do, it is very easy in Mutatorkammer - get it here : http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=downloads;cat=9
