Here is a tutorial showing how I go about making all these spiral fractals. The file is a bit big - about 1.5 mb - due to the graphics.

I think some of you will be surprised at how I create them. I just took one flame and went with it, not knowing how it would look in the end. I got really nervous near the end after I had spiralized it. It just looked like crap. I'm thinking, "Great. I'm going to have to start over and do all these screenshots again." :doh: Fortunately, I found the right palette and everything worked out okay.

I don't know what's up, but I couldn't get the images any less compressed (and I tried several file formats), so the images in the PDF version look sucky. It should still give the user enough information to go out and create some great looking spirals.

Next, you just have to start learning Pascal to write some good scripts. :D

I changed the file to a zipped PDF so that it downloads directly instead of loading to the window. Sorry to those of you with dial-up! :( That was probably very sucky for you.

The help file said it was based off of Pascal, so I'm not sure how exactly similar they are. If this is how Pascal works, though, I don't really like it. I've worked with other languages that are more typing friendly.

You better watch who you're calling a child, Lois, because if I'm a child you know what that makes you? A pedophile, and I'll be damned if I'm going to stand here and be lectured by a pervert.
I'll check it out, see how similar it is ... I like Pascal, but I wanna learn Flash ActionScript. Got any experience?

Not yet, though it's been added to my growing list of things I want to do. I want to make a little game for the anime Witch Hunter Robin. I found some books on it, but I haven't looked at them yet. Too busy with a million other things right now.

I say stick with Flash because it's probably here to stay, as well as being mainstream.

Definitely try it. When you see the original flame and then you see Moon Snail, it's amazing how Apophysis works. I remember reading one tutorial and not understanding why the author liked scripts so much. Now I get it. :lol:
