Well, folks it's back to Dallas for me! Leaving January 16, 2007, Tuesday.
Really looking forward to it!

Still have tons to do before I go, it seems, yet I'm on a roll Ultra Fractally and I can't seem to close the program!

That's why I've been posting so many images - sorry about that but it's likely I won't be posting anything for a month or so while I'm gone so I just wanted to get a few more pics up. Thanks for your patience! :D

Part of the greatness of UF for me lately has been discovering these two pages:
Janet Parke's gradient tut: [link]
and Newton's/RGB Wheel Page by THERESA L. FORD (cattail.nu) [link] .

These have given me a lot more control and a lot more ideas about what colours to use together. Naturally, you may not be able to use the exact gradients that are generated but you many find that you'll come up with some gradients you never thought of before without looking clashy or garish (unless you want it to be!).

If I have time, I'll post some of the new fracs I made with these gradient ideas.

Also remember, any UF gradient can be directly copied and pasted into Apophysis - and vice versa. That's right, directly from one open gradient window in one program to the other! You'll find this gives you other controls and options when you try some of the sliders in the Apo gradient window. UF is by far the superior gradient editor though. !

Due to all the changes in Apo, I'm not sure if you can still import images from there to UF but in any case, they don't behave the same when moved from program to program.)

But you probably knew all this! And anyway, if you just can't get the colours you want, there's always PhotoShop and PSP. However, I try to do as much as I can in UF itself otherwise I get too confused! :lmao:!!!

Anyway, happy trails! I should be accessing my page at least once in a while during my trip so I will try to keep in touch.

Love, LZ :kiss: :hug: :D !!!!

Well, I sent you a long email...Joan-n-n-n-n-n. You sent it by an address that wasn't your usual. Maybe that's the problem. Yep...yep...I did send you one. :nod: I can send it again.

Dang! That's my roaming joan1@telus.net box! It seems rather flawed. Could you please send it to
leonie22@hotmail.com ? I'll be home tomorrow night late! Thanks so much!

Take care, Joan

Hello-o-o-o-o...unfortunately I'll have to just send you a new message. Let me check again first...cause I don't think my original message was saved. WQell, tell it to get it's act together. :no: Well, that's too bad, Joan...:evillaugh: see how sympathetic I am. :rofl: Just kidding. About you stopped having so much fun...and reentered the wonderfully exciting world of 'BEING HOME' again. I've been doing exciting stuff like planting flowers. :w00t: :no: I'll check to see if my message was saved in the 'sent' box...but I really think I'll just have to send you another one...oops, you missed out on the really long-g-g note. No repeats. :rofl:
