A Special Moment.I wanted to share this with you guys because it is by far the most beautiful moment of my life.More Like This
It happens to be the day I flew back. The flight back to England was very long, only because I knew what was waiting on the other side and I couldn't wait to see him again.
When I got off the plane, I don't think I have run faster in my life. I stood in front of the area where the bags were coming out and acted like some kind of idiot really because I was literally pacing around it trying to get my bags out as fast as possible. I borrowed a stranger's phone to call Kurt at that moment because I knew when I crossed those doors, he would be waiting for me on the other side. And when I walked out with my trolley of stuff, there he was. Right in the middle wearing a white t-shirt and a pair of jeans, his arms open wide to grab me, I could see him before I even walked out of the doors at Heathrow. I left my trolley at that point because honestly, I didn't give a damn where it went and in seconds
A personal story about bullyingSILENT BULLYING. When I was in elementary school bulluying started to rise up on the agenda of teachers and parents. I know my parents went to meetings to learn more about what bullying was. They talked about kids getting called names, getting hit and a lot of other things, what they didn't talk about was the silent bullying.More Like This
The bullying with no words, with no actions other than looks, sighs and giggles behind the person's back and some occasional words.
From around third grade to sixth grade I was a victim to silent bullying and no one noticed. Even today people speak about how happy I was as a kid, how imaginative and so on... In my diary at the time it says nothing about being bullied - I didn't understand I was.
I thought I deserved the looks, that they were right when they commented my height, that I was ugly, how I waved my hands around when I talked, how I sat, how I walked and my hair... which was said to be a wig.

I don't care what political views you have, what you believe in, what gender you have or consider yourself to be, what country you're from and definitely not who you love. I care if you're loving, friendly, respecting and happy.
Love is a great thing and shouldn't be restricted or frowned upon.
No matter if you love or want to love someone from your own gender, someone from the opposite or from both camps - I won't judge you. As long as you're happy and loved I will be happy for you.

A couple of years ago I met a boy called S. He was kind, quiet and made me coffee every morning at an office we both despised for what it represented. I fell head over heels for his quiet charm, his music, his soothing voice: who he was. Except I didn't really know who he really was. Slowly, over the course of the relationship, he began to point out things he didn't like about me. He didn't like the way I overused certain phrases, the way I spoke, the way I sang, and he didn't want to listen to me talk about my past because it burdened him, and he didn't like that...basically all the little things that made me, ME would have to change. This is where I made the most critical mistake.

I changed who I was to please S. And do you know what? The more I changed to suit his needs, the more demands he put on
About Stock (and Typography)Did you know that no matter what gallery you submit to on dA, you HAVE to credit your sources? Hell yes!More Like This
This includes among other things images, textures, brushes, fonts etc., just to name the most commonly used Stock and Resource items.
The Photo Manipulation gallery and community f.e. takes great effort into crediting the materials used for their works and has some shining examples among its submissions, sometimes containing up to 50 seperate sources.
There are lots of great typography deviations that are pretty much Photo Manipulations, as they use a series of materials to create the final artwork.
It does not matter where you get your files from, even if the provider does not require credit, dA does require you to credit your sources.

First off, for clarifications sake, Yes, this limit also includes groups you are watching. Secondly, you may only be able to +watch 5,000 deviants, but you can in turn be +watched by as many deviants as there are on the site. Thirdly, there are really only a handful of deviants (out of hundreds of millions) that watch more than 5,000 deviants. It's more than likely this change won't even affect you.
That said… let's do a bit of math. I know, I know… "grumble, grumble, math sucks". But trust me, it puts this into perspective a bit.
Let's go with the edge case and say that you happen to be watching 5,000 deviants. Let's also say that these deviants post 1 - 2 messages to your message centre a day for a week. That's fairly generous,

Arctic werewolves live in significantly colder climates, often in the arctic circle. They spend more of their time in beast form than other werewolves, to make optimal use of their fur. They have thicker fur and bodies, and shorter ears. They can afford to be near or even in their homes this way because of the sparse population in the area.

Recently, I came across many resources that had well under 100s and over 1,000 downloads.

Please note, this is only a very small fraction of the resources available for Apophysis programs!!! Below are just a few of the many resources by artist.

2011 BMFAC News UpdateBMFAC winners published in print magazine!More Like This
The 25 winners of the Benoit Mandelbrot Fractal Art Contest were contacted in mid February to supply large format files of their winning images and also a short bio explaining their interest in fractal art, software used and general information about their work if they chose to do so. We were also informed that the first exhibit would be held in Logroño, in Northern Spain. Javier Barrallo, a Professor of Mathematics at The University of the Basque Country, Spain and also one of the panelists for the BMFAC was our contact for this. The current exhibit will be in the Casa de la Ciencia (House of Science), in Logroño, the Capital city of RIOJA until June 10th. I'll post a few pictures Javier sent further down. Javier also says he will send more pictures soon.
Also when I was contacted in February, Javier informed me that he had written an article about the BMFAC for a Spanish scientific magazine with all the winning images i
The Fractal Beginnings - Third time the charmThe Fractal Beginnings - Third time the charm !! (aka "sukySuk" fractals)More Like This
After the first News article, the response of the community was overwhelming. From shock to amazement
to pure laughter - upon finishing the reading and viewing the images.
I do think it takes awhile for some points to sink-in, like being self-critical about your own work, developing sensibility to receive constructive critiques from your friends and other artists (those are still sensitive topics in the community).
I know exactly how it feels to be a 'noob' - enjoyment of creating something, even when it's random and accidental is like a 'drug' - you feel proud, that with a press of a button apo made a colorful swirl
When the initial euphoria of it passes, you start to wonder - how may I improve my skills, since it would be a greater achievement to - intentionally design something, then wait for a 'lucky strike'.
After the first news - I got tons of notes and comments, stating the same thing as I t

LIVE TUTORIALS--- LIVE TUTORIALS ---More Like This
By request I can do free live tutorials on Ultra Fractal. I use Join.me. It's feature that allows you to follow my screen and chat by text. Some teqniques are best explained from my chatroom. Take a look in my gallery if there is anything that looks like something you want to learn and I'll see if I can teach that. I'm not good at abstract stuff, though. Tutorials does not always show a lot of techniques. It can be the thoughts about the effect that is just as important to grasp.
For some tutorials and techniques you will need some preknowledge about Ultra Fractal.
Interested? Just note me or enter my chatroom http://chat.deviantart.com/chat/Jimmiesroom or Aposhack http://chat.deviantart.com/chat/aposhack to find me.

Hey everybody!! Ok, for this Teaser I figured I'd pick some formulas that I've enjoyed playing with, but haven't seen other 'fellow bulbers' using all that much ... Hope you have some fun!
So, here are the rules:

2. Use either 1 or 2 'transform' formulas - Any of the formulas that start with an underscore (_)
Formulas can be in any order you want.
Anything else - Julia Settings, Post processing, etc. is all up to you!!
Best of luck!!

As we did not get any questions last month there was no Agony Aunt feature for April. Assuming that most of the burning questions you had about UF have now been answered we have decided not to do this feature again for the time being. It may be something we will re-visit in future but for now it seems to have run its course.May 2013 BarnsleyJ Deluxe Challenge
This month we are introducing you to one of the Barnsley formulas of Ed Algra: BarnsleyJ DeLuxe (UF4) from ea.ufr

The starting fractal uses the default settings for this formula - we would like you to explore these parameters fully and submit entries that clearly show you have made some changes to these settings.
