Thanks Matt... Now could you tell me what the difference is between rendering the APO image in UF or just exporting it as a bitmap. (.BMP file)

I always just export mine from UF as a bitmap. I think someone once told me that rendering them to disk takes a long time or summit... Maybe someone who's more up on UF can answer this... Matt.

in APOP..."File-Export to Bitmap" gives you a nice .BMP file of the fractal. :-)

If you're happy doing it that way then carry on.

Fractals will always amaze me!

As a beginner to Apophysis/Fractals I appreciate any help and information I can get. Thanks Matt, for sharing.

Thanks for sharing that Matt, this will be a big help, ive been a bit "blah" about Apo lately, cant seem to make anything i like. That has resparked my interest a lot! :) Oh and on the subject of rendering... i used to render my flames in UF, i still do if i find one i particularly like. It does take an enormous amount of time, and cpu power ( if your pc is a little old like mine ) but i find it smooths them etc just a little bit more than an export. All comes down to your own personal preference though :)

Response to #5 above. I am have Apop beta 2 and when I click on file, I don't get "in APOP..."File-Export to Bitmap"". The only option like that that I get is "Export UPR." Is there another download I missed or something. Thanks.

"File export to bitmap" is only available in Apophysis v1. Matt.
