There are lots of variations. The key thing is that it's recursive, i.e. the same pattern is repeated over and over again at ever-smaller scales, so if you zoom in you see the same pattern repeating.<BR/><BR/>Of course, that's probably totally over-simplified and/or wrong, but you get the idea. Gives you these really complex shapes.Richard Wintlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14644765072275026087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33338421.post-27429441019193112352008-03-08T08:11:00.000-05:002008-03-08T08:11:00.000-05:00I like #1 the best (what can I say, I like green),...I like #1 the best (what can I say, I like green), with #2 a close 2nd. I think that I will try out that ArtRage thing myself, since it's available in a Mac version. It looks like it could be handy for illustrating...<BR/><BR/>Btw, could you explain what exactly is a fractal? :)#Debihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16912664724362916680noreply@blogger.com
