A new(?) apo trick - includes paramsIf you've been hanging around aposhack at all the past few days, you've probably seen me excitedly linking to images like these:A new(?) apo trick - includes params in Personal More Like This![]()
Well, now I'm going to teach you how to get that intertwining.
We are going to start from the sphereye-bubble template that comes with Apo 7x. If, for some reason, you don't have that/don't know how to get to it/are using a different version of apo, here are the params:

The Art of the NameAn interesting factoid before I jump into the meat of this journal: 2011 was the first year where I produced more Apophysis artworks than UF ones. I mean, it was pretty close, a 46-54 percent split. Dunno why but I find this interesting.The Art of the Name in Personal More Like This
-
I've been thinking a lot lately about naming fractals and the kind of considerations that go into that. Pretty much anyone who spends time in aposhack will have heard me asking for name suggestions for my latest render. Interestingly enough, I rarely go with an exact suggestion, but hearing a few still helps me come up with ideas and make the final decision anyway.
So anyway. What makes a "good" fractal name and what makes a "bad" fractal name? If anything this question may be even more subjective than what makes a fractal itself good or bad! After all, a name that suits one fractal perfectly may be extremely unsuitable for another.
As for my own preferences, I tend to shy away from vague abstract nouns like "sadness" or "temptation" or "warmth,"
Plugin pack for Apophysis 7x64 + a little reminderHi guysPlugin pack for Apophysis 7x64 + a little reminder in Personal More Like This
Since I obviously don't have anything better to do this fine day, I sat down and made 94 (!) existing plugins for Apophysis readable for the 64-bit-version of Apophysis 7X (commonly known as 7x64) - I'm talking about almost all of the plugins available as source code on SourceForge.net including my own. I just skipped some odd non-standard ones, those which are built-into Apo7x15 and dc_image. I don't know what else is floating around in outer space so if you note me the source code (*.c), I'd convert some more too.
It cost me an imaginary pack of cigarettes and 90% of my remaining sanity. So here is the download link:

Go grab it on Apophysis-7X.org!
Apophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes #2!An updated version of Apophysis 7X15C is hitting the servers right now. The changes are:Apophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes #2! in Personal More Like This
+ Added possibility to specify a custom plugin path for the 32 bit version
+ Fixed bipolar variation (wrong constant used in preparation routine - M_2_PI is not 2 * PI. Thanks, Fred!)
+ Fixed "X"-button next to the search field
+ Fixed a memory leak in the renderer
+ Changed the 32 bit version to use 32 bit-floats (instead of double precision = 64 bit floats) which results in less memory use in the 32 bit version and higher image quality in the 64 bit version
+ Changed Chaotica integration so that 64 bit Chaotica is enforced if 64 bit Apophysis is running
I'm sorry for the update frequency but that's how it is in the first days after a new major release! People are actively tracking bugs and report the results to me. And I fix them and release hotfixesOnce we - as a community - tracked down all the (not so hidden) bugs, the update frequency will drop to normal again

Welcome to my new series : "From Resources to Fractal Art".
What is really interesting in the fractal community, is the way deviants interact between each others to share their knowledge with tutorial or Parameters Pong (Sharing Parameters to tweak the main fractals).
Therefore, in this article I'm going to select a resource randomly and show you how to start from a tutorial to achieve a wonderful fractal.
This week, let's take a look at `lindelokse tutorial : Apophysis 3D Blooms Tutorial
This tutorial is an evolution of her first tutorial about 2D blooms.

The newest #DeviantDiscovery Feature goes to
fractal1
for her fractal artworks.
Since I haven't had the chance to feature a fractal artist, I'm glad to dedicate this feature to ~fractal1. She's a fantastic fractal artist & photographer, and a great friend. Her fractals are as magnificently colourful as they are beautiful and detailed. As a person, she's fun to talk to, and is always kind. As an artist, she is consistent and original. With her talent, she definitely deserves some more Watchers and gallery views. I hope you enjoy this, Rosalinde!

For those of you that have been Watching me for the past three years, you know I have an addiction to deviantART. Being offline for the past two weeks has put me into an infinite art withdrawal. By that I mean: I'M DYING FROM LACK OF ART. I can't wait until this punishment is over, I have waaaaay too many comments to respond to, and hundreds of fractals to render [I've been making them secretly :iconteheplz:].
ALSO. When I had first purchased my Premium Membership, I had inadvertently forgotten to disable rebilling. It turns out dA siphoned more of my dad's money to pay for yet another month [oh, deviantART, your love for money seems to sometimes outweigh your love for us]. What's great about that is - he doesn't care. So it seems I'll be remaining a =Beta Tester. Even though I'm not here to test anything.

Take a look through their gallery, and you will find photography, photography, and more photography [with the exception of some photo-realistic paintings]. But unlike other Deviants, he does not simply submit every photo he takes. Only his best ones make it to deviantART. He puts effort into his photography, and it shows in every one of his submissions. With less than one comment [or favourite] a day, and an average of 4.5 page views daily after five years, this Deviant deserves much more attention than they currently have.

Feature of a Beloved Fractal Artist...:icontwinkleplz:This week we would like to highlight the art of a uniquely talented and beloved fractal artist.....:iconsuicidebysafetypin: This wonderful lady (whose name is Light) has given so much to the fractal community through her devotion through :iconthe-aposhack: as well as being the former Deviant Art Community relations person. She shares her insights on creating fractals with anyone who asks her a question....as well as shares her parameters to teach HOW to create some of the most beautiful fractal arts on DA. Suffering the loss of her Granny this past summer as well as a major move of residence has served to make this a difficult year for her.....and has caused her to take a step back to re-center herself and look forward to a brighter new year. I invite you to to add your own voice of appreciation in the comments section below.:icontwinkleplz:Feature of a Beloved Fractal Artist... in Personal More Like This

APOPHYSISWe are going to have special features (from time to time)about the different software programs that we all use to make our fractal image art. This first one centers around the very popular program APOPHYSIS.APOPHYSIS in Personal More Like This
Apophysis is an open source fractal flame editor and renderer for Microsoft Windows.
Apophysis has many features for creating and editing fractal flames, including an editor which allows one to directly edit the transforms by manipulating triangles, a mutations window, which applies random edits to the triangles, an adjust window, which allows the adjustment of coloring and location of the image, and even a scripting language with direct access to most of the components of the fractal, which allows for effects such as the animations seen in Electric Sheep, which are also fractal flames. Users can export fractal flames to other fractal flame rendering programs, such as FLAM3.Scott Draves invented Fractal Flames and published an open source implementation written in C in t

"Fractal geometry will make you see everything differently.
You risk the loss of your childhood vision of clouds, forests, flowers, galaxies,
leaves, feathers, rocks, mountains, torrents of water, carpet, bricks, and much else besides.
Never again will your interpretation of these things be quite the same."

"I was inspired to do this painting after reading a blog by a "friend" on Myspace named Laura.
It appeared that we had suffered many of the same heartaches as children, and even adults.
I carried this around with me for a few weeks, and then decided to try
and do a painting showing the uncanny and most unfortunate ways
that two people who have never met can relate to one another and even share emotion for a brief time..."

Fractal Art is expressive & creative.
Above all Fractal Art is an experimental art form.
The artist is never fully certain what effect variables will have on the image.
This fact connects, rather than separates, the digital fractal artist with the traditional paint artists.

CONTEST IS OPEN"IN THE EMBRACE OF WINTER"CONTEST IS OPEN in Personal More Like This
Each season brings a different experiences and emotions, different atmosphere, a different colour pallette.
Winter is a time for reflection and rest, a cycle of life-death-rebirth,
the inward journey, embracing darkness and silence.
Winter days are short, with long nights. The cold weather can make us sad and lethargic.
The season offers a sense of calmness and makes us feel peaceful.
The most romantic time of the year?
A snowy, frosty, cold world or rain and endless grey skies can be beautiful
but some people find that they become seasonally depressed as they receive less light in winter.
People feel tired and sluggish during winter. Too cold, gloomy, depressing?
Do you feel the winter blues or you enjoy the season?
Go back to your memories and keep your focus on your experience and emotions.
Show us your feelings about winter.
Show us your winter mood...now, in your past or childhood.![]()

A New Version of jWildfireAndreas released a new version, v.50.A New Version of jWildfire in Personal More Like This
Just released JWildfire V0.50.
Major additions where made to the image mapping capabilities of the of the fractal flames editor, i. e. the "(post)colormap_wf" variation. A tutorial with some cool examples will follow.
Additionally you may now save the state of your render, turn off your computer and resume the rendering later - to create images with really georgeous details
Complete list of changes:
- some fixes and lots of internal improvements to the "(post)colormap_wf" variations to produce really cool results watch out for the tutorial
- use the standard image file dialog for selecting images from within the "(post)colormap_wf" variations
- ability to create a gradient from an image (using median cut quantization) - for even better results applying the "(post)colormap_wf" variations
- pause/resume render function for the interactive renderer - i.e. storing/restoring iteration data and thread state

I have TOO MANY faves on list Feature and FontsHi everybodyI have TOO MANY faves on list Feature and Fonts in Personal More Like ThisI downloaded a template or a style and there was a PDF file with links to fonts needed. One of the links gave me Trojan Dropper. do BEWARE of where you download you fonts. I always try dafont first. I'm sure we all have our favorites. If you want to pipe in and say which, I'd be delighted.
SO here's the moment. I keep a list of the thumbnail codes for everything I fave, I use them, usually, to link when I submit. But I don't submit enough for all the great art and artists I have seen or found in the last weeks. Here I am posting them all and will start off with a fresh list. I don't know if I will be able to advise everyone. At least my watchers and friends will recognize their works. There is a great mix of all kinds of art and artists. I hope you have a good time and find a new artist or artist's style that you like. Take care to all.: :iconofficialfella5plz:
