I really go back and forth on this one. Sometimes I feel a fractal conveys the idea I want to get across on its own, and needs no post. Sometimes there's no 'idea' at all, but only something I find beautiful. Sometimes, though, there are those fractals that just scream "Give me a world to exist in!!" so I do my best to answer. I don't think I'm apologetic about post, but I do wonder sometimes if my work pushes the fractal into another medium entirely.

BUT at the same time, when I can post an image that is entirely fractal with no post, there is something VERY satisfying about actaully saying "no post." I think it's not an apology so much as a quiet way of expressing the triumph of getting a program to do what you really want it to do.

All in all, I feel this is a very individual thing, varying from artist to artist. I think we should all be proud of what we produce, and always unapologetic. As long as it makes YOU, the artist happy, that's really all that matters in the long run.

And that was a lot more than 0.02 cents. LOL

Kat - done babbling for now. ^_^
