Hey guys. I found this nifty useful wiki page on how to create fractal desktop wallpapers with the gimp. Here's an image that I created I call it "Fractal Dragon".  The link to the howto is: http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_GIMP_Fractal_Backgrounds I'd be interested in seeing what your computers and creative tastes come up with. ------------------ |

That is kinda cool. What I would like to see is fractals of the descriptions of flames and shine from the Bible. Eze 1:4 And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire. ------------------ [VoHW] (Help needed) [Blog] - Truedisciple (mp3) |

Both picutres are AWESOME - Great work! Here I go, now to see how much controversy I can create. I use BOTH CS2 and Gimp 2, and I prefer GIMP for the majority of my artistic creations. Yes Photoshop has some pretty neat plug-ins, but GIMP has more that fit my needs. Try and render a sphere in both and tell me which is easier. On the other hand, try and load a .RAW image into GIMP. IMHO - Gimp is powerfull enought to use as a professional medium to create artwork and photo retouching. I actually prefer GIMP when retouching wedding photos. |

That looks interesting, could make for some good base textures to create particle emitters with. |

hey check this one out. i did gradients on different layers *then* i did the flame filter with the opposite of that gradient. then i did a different one on a different layer. then i put a gradient beneath the two fractals. i think it looks really cool:
