finally found out what this APO program really is... Apophysis.  You guys really like to keep secrets on a name :P  Anywho, after a few hours of just clicking around, I've pretty well got it figured out... but I still don't really have an idea of what to do.  The Editor, Adjust, Gradient, ad Mutation dialogs are pretty self explanatory and easy to use.  It's a bonus I can throw them on my second monitor with my render window on the main.  I looked through some of the tuts from the site, but I also wanted to know what some of you do to make the program work.  Not that you have to give up secrets and such, but just some interesting tidbits for a new comer.  It has to be more than just point and click... or am I dead on?  Thanks in advace for any help.
