Learned Fractint for DOS and later the Windows version. Never could predict what my formula attempts might look like.
Joined a few contests but felt my images were the worst so I backed off. Have tried a number of other fractal generators....
Greetings, and welcome to this particular forum !!!
If you started with FractInt, then you most likely began playing around with fractals many years ago.
As to fractal related contests, so many of them became controlled by "cliques" and really were not worth the trouble, unless you kissed their collective buts a lot.
Too many of the forums were dominated by a few who liked to see their names a lot and added tons of LOL's to all their postings . . .
like Facebook social networking in a way.
Quite a few of them have died off and gone by the way side. Newsgroups, Email Lists, groups on Yahoo!, Google, and other places are either closed are basically dead from lack of involvement. Not really that much going on like there used to be, when there were so many places could be joined.
I enjoy making things with my hands a lot more now and have backed off digital art almost completely. Eh?
Nothing wrong with that !!! There are a few artists around that appreciate the "physical" aspect of their work much more. Some doing sculptures, some doing hand drawn images, and more people every day are getting into using 3-D printers to create fractal objects. The latter is now quite possible for very little expense these days.
