You know, after seeing this ugly little drama play out more than once, I do not understand why formula writers make their formulae so readily available if they are going to have a cow every time someone uses it--wittingly or unwittingly. For crying out loud, if you are that proprietary about your parameters and formulas, keep them under lock and key and only take them out during a full moon, armed with a machete. I, too, have seen a few people run off from this place and others, because some bullies didn't have the class to question them privately about the images they--innocently-- posted. One woman swore off fractal art forever because of it; mortified by the response to her image, this newcomer to fractal art ran shrieking into the night because of a bullying job similar to this one. It's an ugly little tradition that I suspect many of us are tired of witnessing. I know I am. Mindy
