XenoDream wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be and am still working in abstracts (which is what I love about fractals ... no one can say, "It doesn't look like a (fill in the blank) to me."). I don't think I will ever get to the stage where I can create images that look like tables, lamps, etc - which I know XD is capable of creating. There are quiet a few presets included with the program. If you open a file, the default folder is called "Starters" (or something like that). But, if you go up a level and open the data folder - each subfolder has more images to play with. If I can help anyone, just shout :)
