Hi,

I playd a lot with fractals before but now I think I forgot all I learned then :-) 
Well I wan to be able to create fractals for commercial use. 

Apophysis seams to have a lot of support and a lot of downloads available, but I don´t think I can use the scripts and formulas for commercial stuff. But I belive I can make my own fractals from begining in Apo and sell? I can´t find any info that says I can´t, if I´m wrong please tell me.

Ultra fractal isn´t that expencive but don´t seams to have a lot of support.

Any ideas?

I'm not sure what you mean by 'support', UltraFractal has one of the most active support communities around.  There is a very active (50+ messages a day) mailing list that you can join on the UF site as well as communities in Yahoo and dA.  There are many tutorials (the ones that are included in the Help section of the program are excellent by themselves!) and even classes at  the Visual Arts Acadamy online with Janet Parke and Kerry Mitchell, two people who have been involved with UF since it first appeared.  If you have any questions on any of these, or need more information you can send me a site mail.

Apophysis and Ultra Fractal produce somewhat different kinds of images - and both are equally well supported by the fractal community. It really comes down to the type of images that you are looking to create and/or sell.

There aren't many Apophysis script writers that would impose limitations to what you can do with an image you have created with the help of their scripts... the one pre-requisite would be that you don't use the raw output of the script - usually a bit of tweaking is necessary to clean up or sharpen the results of a script for the best end result anyways - so that isn't always an issue...

You could always use both programs... grin

Who? Me?

I have searched some more and found lots of tuts and stuff for both programs. 
I think I go with both :-)

I have to agree that the Ultra Fractal mailing list is great!  Unfortunately I had to cancel out of the mailing list because I was just getting too many messages in my inbox.

I always recommend that people get an email account with Yahoo and dedicate it completely to the list, that way they can visit it as they wish and still have their regular email unhampered by the 50+ messages/ day.
