We are a community dedicated to exploring the
beauty and wonder of fractals. Fractaldreams welcomes submissions of all types of fractal art and all members
who create mind-boggling works of art that explore unseen dimensions.

The Dreams contest has ended and the scores totaled and we must say that there was only ONE point difference between 1st and 2nd Place!

  Congratulations Desmo100 you Will Receive a One Week Feature of your Third Place Entry  on the Fractal Dreams Front Page

We would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for all of the entries and enthusiasm for our first of many contests.  This was a very hard decision for all of us involved in the voting process.  Two Admins and the Vice Admin narrowed 48 entries down to 3 different picks each, for a total of 9 finalists.  Once the 9 finalists were chosen, we had two Artists, one a talented fractal artist and the other a talented Varied / Pencil Artist use a Points system to choose the Winners. The points were based on the following criteria, with 10 possible points for each:

1. Clear, quality render with no unintentional noise.

2. Clear color (not muddy or too dark)

3. Good composition and placement

4. Reflects Dream Contest Theme

5. Fractal is foremost in piece

Although each and every one of you are winners in our book, we have decided to give honorable mention to the other top entries as follows:

Congrats to ALL the winners

desmo100Nov 4, 2007

Thank you very much for sponsoring this contest...it was fun and quite a challenge! My best wishes to the winners of first and second place. Third place is good, too, so I am very grateful...it's such a great way to start Sunday!

FractalDreams Nov 4, 2007

You are Welcome

It was Fun and we enjoyed it..The voting was very hard but we have such a fun group here. Third is Awesome out of 48 Gorgeous entries

We will be announcing another contest very soon

desmo100Nov 4, 2007

Yay! I'll probably enter that one, too!

FractalDreams Nov 4, 2007

You Better!!

Ann-McLarenNov 4, 2007

Congratulations to all the winners..

AnnaKirstenNov 4, 2007

Excellent winning choices - and I'm encouraged to see that they aren't all Apo pictures in the winning slots too! Not that a lot of them aren't good, and the second place one is beautiful, but somehow I always feel that Apo out-does any other fractal format in votes for contests in general.

I particularly love Titia's FE works - she really has the knack with that program!

FractalDreams Nov 4, 2007

Well we look at all fractal generating programs and we used the points system for clarity, etc... We had some beautiful entries in most all fractal programs. I know that two of my picks were not apo, and that's all I do ..lol

Yes Titia's work is always outstanding.

Thank you you Anna

AnnaKirstenNov 4, 2007

Apo coming out on top seems to be a pretty general thing normally - not just here, but on other sites too. I think it's because there's so much new stuff going on with it all the time, and everyone just wants to have a go!

lauratylerNov 4, 2007

WOO HOOO *applause* I love them all, and I think your choices are wonderful. I have to say, first place REALLY caught my eye when I first saw it. Definitely dramatic with the color, very dark darks to very light lights. The whole spectrum.

Lovely-DementedNov 3, 2007

Well done everyone! Congratulations to the winners!

Baz135Nov 3, 2007
