All i do when i want to put a layer from one fractal onto another, is go to the layer pallette window, highlight the layer i want to use, and drag it onto the fractal i want to use it on. However, depending on the size of the fractal im dragging the layer from, the image may appear differently on the new fractal. For example, if i have zoomed in deeply on one spiral, and then cropped/resized the image dimensions to say 500x500 but then drag a layer of that onto a fractal with the dimensions of 640x480, the layer appears differently as it fills the window to the new dimensions, thus adding more of the original fractal that was there before i cropped it. I really hope this makes sense to you LOL It might not, but i know what i mean, its just hard to explain.
