This showcase is such a fav of mine over the months. Thanks so much you two for your precious time in sorting through all these beautiful works!!

Not to offend any groups or anything else but, I think I'm learning more about apo off this thread than anywhere else. Maybe we can start an ‘Apo for Dummies’ thread, please?

Btw, my 2 cents worth...create YOUR art, express yourself using what you want. As far as fractals go I think they're out there more than most think. I see them everywhere in different uses. Fractals being 'high-end gallery' give it time they will.

Apo verses UF, who cares? They both work well alone or together and I highly doubt one will put the other out of the market. Nor will the general public care about the definition of what a fractal really is artistically. They will be looking at a how piece affects them, apo or UF will not matter. Only a mathematician will care about the ‘definition’ and then again I think they may not even care if it is apo or UF. Only the lure of algorithms and the concept of chaos will matter. Anyways, now I'm rambling. I'm going back into my cave to hide again, lol.

Thanks so very much for the link! I notice they have a teenwrite, although inactive at the moment. My daughter and I have been looking for something like this to help improve our writing. She has several friends who might even be interested. I'll let them know :).

As a post slowly creeps to the bottom of the page it meets it's end in the great abyss called the 'archive'. You can usaully find it again with a search. But beware, the archive can be tempermental! It may return a slew of items barely related or nothing at all. LOL, hope this helps :).

Reading some of the past posts has been a bit intimidating for me. I've absolutly no training, nada, totally ignorant, I mean completly at a loss. Hence the reason I fail to post in this forum. Not to mention I have a severe case of typonese and have to retype everything several times so it looks right, lol. Anyway, some very basic tips or suggested sites for beginners would be nice.
