For those who like their Mandelbrot midgets more clearly defined I found a larger one near Jim Muth's Fractal of the Day for Nov 2, '03, 'Rainbow Vision'... This fractal calculates relatively quickly. Jim, That's quite a cheery color map! How did you happen to come up with that one? <--<< BTW, my spell checker says that you've been spelling your last name wrong all this time -- its actually supposed to be: 'Moth'... ;-) - Hal Lane START 20.02 PAR-FORMULA FILE================================ A_Bigger_Midget{ ; Another midget in the Nov 2,'03 FOTD ; Version 2002 Patchlevel 4 ; Hal Lane reset=2002 type=formula formulafile=_pastarc.frm formulaname=mandelbrotmix4 function=ident passes=1 center-mag=-2.03526564794305300/-0.01076099836157466\ /1216.695/1/157.4999928593476/1.06854042177251252e-0\ 05 params=1/2.03/-0.2/2.97/0/0 float=y maxiter=5000 inside=0 proximity=0.4 outside=fmod periodicity=10 sound=off colors=000Kph<3>IhhHfiHdi<3>E_iEZjE_iI`gLaeGcYSdU<3>\ ekEilAlm1mm4ll6<12>eIZeF`dDb<2>c5ib3kc0lb1m<22>NGRMG\ QLHPLIOKIN<2>JJL<4>`HZcH`gGc<3>tFnwFptGm<6>cHWaHTZHR\ WIO<3>MIEKJBHJ8FJ6CJ3AJ1<3>7H46H56G55G65G6<3>XKY_Nab\ Kc_HdWEeCBf38g<13>T6LV6JX6I<3>d6Bg10<3>bLaaQjZPi<8>E\ IaCH`AH_<3>1EX<3>K`iPflTko<5>JVTHSPGQL<2>BH9AF6AHB<3\
