LOL...that's happened to me a couple times. Darned irritating...I don't do many tutorials, although I recommend Fran's tut to beginners all the time. What I like to do is dig into the settings of the program to get different types of flames. Right now I'm playing with the forced symmetry and variations on 2 or 3 transforms. I prefer adding a couple of transforms to the stationary one and deleting the ones randomly generated...that way I have a basic 2 transform flame to tinker with. I can set my variations and rotate and flip transforms to my hearts content and I learn a bit more about controling the shape of the flame each time. I save parameters often in different flame files that I name based on symmetry or variation. Mainly because I have lost so many I wish I hadn't. I've barely skimmed the surface on this program...oh, I've altered Mark's scripts to make my own also but haven't done one from scratch. I'm not anywhere near there yet...if I ever will be. I'm having fun though. ;o)

Treat people as if they were what they ought to be...
And you help them to become what they are capable of being.
