Another tip to those newer to fractals is that if the fractal itself is quite "busy", i.e. has lots of smaller detail, then as a general rule it's better to use fewer colours/slower colour changes whereas if the fractal is less busy then it's better to add detail by increasing the number of colours/rate of colour change. Creating a good result on a busy fractal with many colours/fast colour changes is possible (Rykk, Deagol etc.) but is more difficult and requires considerable skill/experience - it's a skill that I've not acquired yet !!
