Images made with specific fractal software such as Apophysis, Mandelbulb 3D, JWildfire, Ultra Fractal, Chaotica and Mandelbulber.
or
Images made with software that has fractal aspects in it such as Terragen, or fractal plug ins such as Gimp, Photoshop
Or
Images that clearly show a repeating pattern across different scales as the main image e.g. not one little corner of the image
or
Photographs of something that clearly shows a repeating pattern such as some plants, geographic formations
From 16th May 2023 we will expect new members to show in the description, or tags, what program was used to create the image.
For new members to join the group, we must be able to see images that fit the above criteria in their gallery
Join requests for members will be voted on not auto accepted. We will check your gallery and if you don't have fractals - don't worry about requesting membership.
All fractal art will be accepted as long as it fits the rules below, including from programs such as Terragen and Bryce - place them in the 'other' folder until I see if we need new folders :)
We will not knowingly accept AI images as fractal art.
⦁Please submit your best work - to the correct folders!
⦁3 submissions each day to each folder
⦁Submit to folder of the program you used - animations and manipulations as well.
⦁Submissions are NOT auto accepted - we will decide.
⦁Multiple submissions that are very similar will not be accepted
⦁Featured folder is not allowed, we will choose work to go there
⦁No pornographic/nude work or work requiring the mature content filter
⦁No overtly violent/gruesome work will be accepted
⦁Journal art features must be promoting other artists, not yourself
⦁All work/resources submitted must be your own
⦁Correct acknowledgement must be given for stock used - 'found on google/bing etc' is not good enough
⦁Anyone found to be submitting stolen art will be removed and reported to DA
⦁No watermarks or signatures that obscure the image - these will be declined
⦁No unfinished work/works in progress. We want to see the final art work.
⦁No blurred images that require people to watch you or pay to see them - we can't check if your image is appropriate for this group.
⦁Treat everyone involved in the group with respect - those who don't will be removed from the group
Please send us a note if you know of more to add or if a link doesn't work.
