Peter (aka KPK) and I just exchanged a .upr set--and it really was interesting to see the different interpretation that resulted. I know that in several mailing lists (which are program specific) this is common, and would like to see more of it here, if possible.

Drawbacks (that have been mentioned in the past) are primarily due to use of different programs, and that some folks would be left out of such an exchange.

  1. Does anyone know of any interpretor programs that can (for example) read a UltraFractal upr file and turn it into a Fractal Explorer file?? (Or other programs, etc., ....) Maybe our mathematically minded members could help?
  2. Or should we try to form buddy systems? But that again could lead to cliques, which I would like to avoid...
  3. Or should we try to have more theme challenges, and let each person work alone inside their own program? :(

If anyone has any suggestions, comments, help---feel free to chime in. I think this could really get this forum jumping!
