Fantastic Fractalicious Fractals issue 14The first issue of this year! This time I want to present some of the coolest fractals from 2011, it was really difficult to pick out some faves of the year, you are too good!!! But first, a short resume of last year's happenings.Fantastic Fractalicious Fractals issue 14 in Personal More Like This
What happened last year?
Pretty lot! There have been fractal circles with tweaking fractals around, both in the group :#fractalcircles: and ponging parameters in :#aposhack: , Light `SuicideBySafetyPin introduced us for the Inspiration station, the fractal flash mob, a collective feature of different artists. *heavenriver has her UF challenge going on http://heavenriver.deviantart.com/journal/Ultra-Fractal-monthly-Challenges-Redux-Vol-12-277027446 and `f--l--A--r--k has his Apo challenge http://fav.me/d4l1fc6 and it would be great if we could keep up supporting them!

Fantastic Fractalicious Fractals # 15Did you miss the series? I have missed it too, but I thought it would be a good idea to have a break from it until I found some inspiration again. You guys never stop to amaze me, I get new and fresh works, journals and tutorials in my inbox every day, and now I thought I should share it with you. First some news from DA's fractal corner.Fantastic Fractalicious Fractals # 15 in Personal More Like This
=raysheaf is planning a tutorial on how to make realistic shapes using concentric circles in UF. Be sure to add him to your watch list if you want this tutorial in your inbox! http://fav.me/d4t8eug
Light has challenged Chiara with this one:and I think it's a great idea! It's not like the usual parameter pongs, but a co-operation between two artists with different styles, where the result shows off each artist's style. Just imagine =Leichenengel's colourful psychedelic style with :devjimpan73: metallic spirals and shiny gems. Or *LeonieZurakowsky's colourful plastic mandelbulb shapes with ~kr0mat1k's quirky metallic bul
FFF series issue 13You wonder what's with the weird title? Yep, I thought I should submit with sta.sh instead of my journal, and of course, it was the famous 30 character limit again. Nevermind, I've heard that it will change soon. I'm back again with the series. And from now on, the series will come out semimonthly instead of each week. It gives me more time to dig up new goodies and collect resources and news. And you'll not be tired of the squirrel and her instant chattering. At least I hope soFFF series issue 13 in Personal More Like ThisThe fractal artists here never disappoint, it's a constant stream of lovely beauties into the fractal gallery.

My contribution: looking for lost gems!Hi there everybody, it's me againMy contribution: looking for lost gems! in Personal More Like This!
I wanted to thank all the wonderful people that gave me their feedback on my latest journal. I will treasure their words and all the new points of view they shared with me.
First of all, I would like you to check these journals please, your opinion is appreciated:
The purpose of my journal was to admit my guilty lazyness and propose to do better next year. I took the chance to try to make you think if there is something that you could have done but you haven't. I wanted to see if I am the only one to think that we left `SuicideBySafetyPin alone to do all the job and coordinate everything for fractal community without providing her support and ideas. She's amazing, but I think we can help her greatly with minimum effort.
*TaraRoys left me a very wise comment http://comments.deviantart.com/1/274227376/2324025924 that I want to share with you:

Warning: long journal is long!
I've been talking with fellow deviants this morning, and a lot of thoughts came to my mind. A lot of things I think it could be nice to talk about, 2011 is almost gone and I could do my part sharing with you my resolutions for the new year, deviantART related clearly
I remember that when I started fractaling three years ago that I got comments, faves, watches, support since the very first days I decided to publish my early practicing flames. I remember getting features, joining active groups (at that time the best ones were #FractalDreams and ~ImagersFractalDDs ) participating to many contests. I wonder... is it still like this? How does the new-come fractal artist feel when he/she first tries to join deviantART fractal community?
Maybe it's just my impression, but I think this place has become less welcoming than it used to be, despite

The gravitational pull & density was so strong to condense into a big dwarf exceeding all reality sizes ...and then it suddenly happened the BIG BANG !!
All molecules & fragments of the dwarf got to travel at light speed to different of cosmos, forming new systems, and galaxies.
The seeds of life got scattered into remote places - one of them fell on earth and started to growThe evolution at early stages forming terrains, bodies of
water & atmosphere above the planet surface. And then - everything grew in proportional neverending chains of F R A C T A L S
All this was caring hope for new LIFE - the molecules dancing, splitting,pulling each other closer build the first blocks of DNA (fractalized models, as you can see).

The first news with Rocking Fractals went over very well - and I got many comments from non-fractal artists, saying they really enjoyed it.
And since fractal art is still in the 'underdog' category getting folks on dA more familiar with it, sounds grand to me.
I would love to get you familiar with few artists - some new, some not so new and a nice mixed-smoothie of fractal works flowing to the gallery on regular bases and that will mean "Fractals that ROCK" is here to stay and give you updates on newest finds and excellent compositions and visions - Enjoy !!

I dont really understand the math behind fractal art. I dont want to. I just want the tools to make beautiful images. `Platinus once told me a painter doesnt really have to know whats in the paint or how the canvas was made to be able to create beautiful work so I live by those words.

When I started making fractals, i was interested in expressing my creativity, but didn't know how to pursue that. Making cool pictures with Apophysis filled that. Also, trying to figure out what Apophysis did in the background really intrigued the analytical/mathematical side of me.
As time has gone on my interest has moved toward the infinite nature of fractals, and working to make more possible with Apophysis.

What is the first thing that makes you attracted to Fractal Art?
First thing attracting me to fractals, was probably the complexity of the images & blazing colors, even without knowing how to make them yet, I did considered them awesome graphics and digital paintings.
I stumbled upon fractal art in early 90's my roomate & myself got a simple software, similar to Fractal Explorer, and we were making some basic animations, the programs were not d

This Article goes out to all Ultra Fractal Users/Artists on dA, so it would be great, if you could +fav this article if the message appeals to you - also it would be awesome, if you could spread the word yourself
The past days I discovered my special interest in tweaking other people's Parameters to learn and to just create my own vision from what is already given. There are a lot of groups that offer Tweaking Circles/Round Robins like :iconfractalcircles: or :iconroundrobin-central: just to name two of them.
My project is some kind of a fusion between Circles/Round Robin's and Challenges.
I thought of the following:
Within a certain amount of time (let's say for example 1 month) there will be a Tasty Tweaks "Round". The whole thing will be running as follows.
1. I write a SignUp Journal that will always be named "Tasty Tweaks #Number" or something like that.That means if you don't want to miss s

children running around playing Trick or Treat and the Parties are kinda
lame as well, but we still had fun. I dressed up as some kind of Witch

What is a Fractal?
A Fractal is a digital artwork that is based on parametres and formulas that are based on mathematics(Geometry). The name Fractal comes from the latin words fractus (fractured, refracted) or frangere (to break into pieces).
Benoît Mandelbrot
The one who coined the term of Fractal was Benoît Mandelbrot. He was a Mathematician born on 20th of November 1924 in Warsaw and died on 14th of October 2010 in Cambridge/US. He contributed a lot to the thematic of financial mathematics, theoretical physics and chaos science. But the highest popularity he gained with being the father of Fractals.

Fractal Art is , like name says, Art made from FractalsToo simple? Well You can create a Fractal and call it Art and you can create several Fractals and stick them together and call it Art in either way Fractal Art i
Last Honor for a recently passed away deviantHello there fello friends, watchers and deviants...Last Honor for a recently passed away deviant in Tributes More Like This
One week ago was a sad day for the family of :iconkram666: and the deviant community.
He passed away at the age of only 48. Him who was so dedicated to digital art will never leave anyone of us a comment or reply to those given to him. He will never again fill our inboxes with his colorful fractals or cute photos of the foxes.
But even if his body has passed away - he will stay alive within us and within the art in his gallery.
I'm sure that he is somewhere where he can still appreciate our support of his art, so this is my hommage to a wonderful artist AND his family.
With heartfelt condolences,
Rike

Hello there fellow fractal artists and fractal lovers!! This week is "Fractal Week" holded by #projecteducateand this article is part of my lil contribution
Today we will talk about Fractal Flowers, but first what is a fractal?
- A fractal has been defined as "a rough or fragmented geometric shape that can be split into parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a reduced-size copy of the whole. The term fractal was coined by Benoît Mandelbrot in 1975 and was derived from the Latin fractus meaning "broken" or "fractured. While fractals are a mathematical construct, they are found in nature, which has led to their inclusion in artwork. (Wikipedia)
So, fractal can be found in nature but at the same time nature can be found in fractals! One of the most representative natural shapes we see in fractals are flowers, and lets gonna be serious who doesnt like

Inspiration Station - Zueuk!It is time for inspiration station againInspiration Station - Zueuk! in Art Features More Like ThisThis time, it hits ~Zueuk, the father of Apophysis 3D
Peter is hell of a clever guy. Some say he has two brains. His most important achievement was the introduction of 3D-technology in Apophysis back the days in 2006 (correct me if I'm wrong about the year) and Xaos (per-transform weighting) into the fractal flame algorithm. All you Apophysis users - including me - owe Peter so much so let's flood him with community love todayGive his gallery a go as well (he is told to be the king of julians as well...):
So this idea is from `SuicideBySafetyPin! It is a weekly feature of honorable members of the fractal communityIf you want to participate - just do it! Make a journal about Zueuk, write something nice and feature some works of him

Apophysis 7x V15B is live!OMFG finally! What's new? Why 15B?Apophysis 7x V15B is live! in Personal More Like This
I promised it - here it is. A bugfix version of Apophysis 7X V15. It's supposed to fix some bugs and improve the Chaotica integration. It's actually not a full new version of Apophysis. V16 is the fancy one with the new, dark interface. This one is to improve the quality of the current version. Thus 15B. Here is the full list of changes:
Fixed DPI glitches in "Export UPR", "Gradient Browser" and "Message Log" windows.
Fixed a bug which made it impossible to render in slices due to "Out of Memory" errors.
Fixed a bug which caused wrong thumbnails after deleting a flame from the list to the left in the main window.
Updated Chaotica integration. Only versions since V0.45 of Chaotica are supported now. Directory structure is significant.
Added optional editor background preview. It is off by default. When on, the mini preview in the editor is replaced by the flame drawn on the background.
All buffer depths except 32 bit integer have been
