I hope it is ok to post other artist's fractal work here. I found this on Renderosity, and Wow, what a masterpiece! It caught my attention even though it is from several years ago, created with an older version of UF. It was made by Daniele Lupo, one of the UF formula writers. He even posted the parameters in his formula file, among others. I attempted to upload it but not all of the pieces came through.

Fantastic, isn't it? I have seen this before but it's wonderful to see it again so thanks for the link.

I tried loading the params too but there is a missing formula so I got nothing. A pity. smile

I'm glad you like this one, too, Chris. I dislike singling out one artist's work in particular as there are so many big-time fractal professionals out there but this piece demonstrates such a clever use of so many different formulas and colorings.
If I had my way I would post nearly every single fractal piece of yours because your work is amazingly beautiful! You are a real pro at what you do and I have the highest respect for your accomplishments. If only you lived in the U.S. I would be honored to meet you and some of the other well known fractal artists from around the globe. Perhaps some day there will be a digital fractal art symposium that brings us all together smile

Thanks for responding to my posts,
Kathy

The missing formula is probably njuntn-j. Get it from the ORGFORM collection, a huge collection of old FractInt formulas at http://www.nahee.com/PNL/OrgForm.html. (Ultra Fractal can read and use FractInt formulas.)

Kathy, thanks for you kind words. I'm so glad you have enjoyed my fractal art work, I certainly have had much enjoyment making my images, and still enjoying UF some 11 years after first trying it. My, how time flies!! smile

Regarding your suggestion of a symposium there was, in fact, just that a few years ago; an international meet up of fractal artists in Spain. I don't know who went or what they got out of it but perhaps another will be organised one day, who knows.

@rsidwell: That formula looks like the missing one, yes. I have the Orgform collection here and downloaded it again just now to be sure... but that formula is just not there, unfortunately.

Strange. Just unzipping the ORGFORM collection to a directory under my Ultra Fractal formulas directory worked for me. The specific file is Test.frm; you might try extracting just that file to your formulas directory. Or perhaps you have another file named Test.frm in your formulas directory that is conflicting.

As a last resort, try making a new file called njutn.frm in your formulas directory containing these lines:

njutn{z=pixel: z=(z/imag(z)*z/real(z)*z*z*z+pixel),|z|<=4}
njutn-j {z=pixel: z=(z/imag(z)*z/real(z)*z*z*z+p1),|z|<=4}

Then when Ultra Fractal complains it can't find njutn-j, select the option to find it yourself and point it to that file. No promises, but it might work.

Thanks Rick. Actually, I was mistaken, I did have the file I just searched for it incorrectly. Whoops!

I have now successfully opened the upr for Arcimboldo and seeing it like that in UF... it is just breathtaking! Wow. Beautifully done.

Thanks for your help in pointing me to this file, I really had no idea where it could be found. I don't keep private formulas like this within my main formulas folder otherwise I'm sure UF would have found it (this is deliberate on my part).

Cheers. smile
