Pretty, it looks like a flower vase on a wall when we look from far

this is gorgeous.. it's perfectly palanced
I really like it ( though somehow it reminds me of math classes .. )
I'll use it for a while as a wall paper,ok?

absolutely fine with me, that's why i make these

and yes, mathematics is a perfect and infinite source of inspiration

Absolutely gorgeous work on this, man, I dig the simplicity and extreme detail. This is great proof that minimalism works.

this is quite lovely.. I wouldn't expect the red background to work so well, wise coloring and lighting overall... and as someone has said, the balance is particularly strong with that black part on the right. great job!

and the miscat thing is just nonsense.. not even worth getting upset about I'd say...

lyc In reply to esintu [2008-04-30 06:55:24 +0000 UTC]

oh i'm not upset, just frustrated. it's so silly, that they already have things in place to try and prevent something they are exacerbating; but anyway... i've said too much about that already i guess: [link]

about the pic itself, i'm happy with how the shopping came out and glad to hear you like it too

They moved this one? hahaha

If it atent apo it atent fractal artz yo

Maybe we have an overzealous fractal purist running around reporting miscats. I hate those guys. Such hypocrites. Half the time they're UF whores who use hundreds of layers and transformations in-program.

As far as postwork goes, this really doesn't look like more than you could do in UF... Doesn't look like you've painted on it or anything. I've seen DDs in the fractal gallery with WAY more manipulation than this...

i wrote a little news article thingy tersely summarising my views about the fractal miscat'ing: [link]

most of all i wish for a section like "tools used" so i can clearly state that no apo or uf were harmed in the making etc...

my friend *Aexion frequently suffers admin recategorisation (which =psion005 also knows all about...) and told me that i can change it back after a while. fingers crossed... that's a fractal image!

You're welcome!!

Yeah..quite a lot of people lately have been recategorized, as well had submissions deleted because admins got power happy. Good luck with changing it back!

well i'm not gonna be militant about it, just hope that someone notices that, with resources already in place, it could be so much better with just a little understanding of the artform. i'm way too old to be taking political action and too young to be taking legal action

Have you ever considered talking to Sophie [ ^Sophquest ] about it? She is the Fractal Gallery Director...or AR person, whatever you call them

She is a sweetheart, and would probably be the best person to start with.

thanks mate!

and yeah, i wish there were more accountability with this recategorisation thing; like when some iq < 80 mod decides he knows better than the author about fractals and moves it, it is tagged with his name so proper complaints can be made (possibly getting him fired for being a retard).

People make mistakes, and believe it or not, the volunteers and myself are human!

Aexion In reply to KariAnnLax [2008-05-01 11:47:13 +0000 UTC]

I already know that we're humans, and mistakes happens..specially in fractal art (some fractals are very hard to recognize)
In my case, I have solved the problem by explaining the fractality in the most confusing pieces. In that way the admins can see where the fractal is
for example: [link]

THAT is nucking futs! very creative and I doubt I'd have believed it was a fractal

oh man i am so totally embarassed about the horrible things i've said :/ i totally didn't even begin to consider real human error at this stage, after all the miscats my friends had experienced (my fractal-sensei *Aexion ).

sorry

KariAnnLax In reply to lyc [2008-05-01 17:19:55 +0000 UTC]

It's ok. I would get pretty pissed off about stuff too before I realized the magnitude of how things work behind the scenes here. It's easy
to forget that there are 1800 categories, 7 million users and 65 non paid volunteers that are doing their best to try to keep things smooth.
With this new reporting desk, I fucked up quite a few. I just try to remind people to breathe and talk to the folks at the heart of a
situation rather than freaking out. But in the past, before I was even a GD, I freaked and yelled about having a dev deleted, so it's not like
I don't get it

You've higher views and more comments than most in the upper lines... more down the page, some have higher views and comments... but AFAI saw, only two where ranked... the butterfly one and the "festivity"...
