sweet fractal

What do you guy's think?

Wan't to try play around with my version of the mandlebrot fractal?

You picked one of the more interesting areas of the Mandelbrot set. I liked it, allthough the colors seemed pastel on my monitor.

I prefer brighter, more intense colors. Is it my monitor and/or my brightness/contrast settings? I do not think so, because everything else seems normal on my monitor. Perhaps I should be set to 24 or 32 bit color (I use 16 bit).

Every time a try to draw a Mandelbrot set, I get an error
"Your monitor does not support pallettes"
I can set it to 32 bit, but I can't get around it, and RGB Triplets are a definite no-no.

Any suggestions?

GRAHAM :)

I get that pallet too. I haven't read the code though (just saw the error playing with the examples)

It's not the RGB tripplets though, I use them for other things and they work well.

Everyone got the Graphics programming in VB book do they? I haven't read much of the fractals section although it looks interesting. spent too much time in the matrices bit

Palettes? I don't use palettes, i got this code from Sam, but he couldn't make more than 16 colors, with qbcolor, well i played around with it, and now i operate with 256. This is very deep zoom, about 40000 i remember, anyone want to have my app?

You could use one of these, the uncommented one is which i use now
'SetPixelV Target.hdc, i, j, Colors(MandleBrot(CoordsToComplex(i, j, Trg), NewComplex(0, 0), 255) Mod 256)
'Trg.PSet (i, j), QBColor(MandleBrot(CoordsToComplex(i, j, Trg), NewComplex(0, 0), lngMaxIts) Mod 16)
'Trg.PSet (i, j), largemod(12345 + Log((MandleBrot(CoordsToComplex(i, j, Trg), NewComplex(0, 0), 1023) Mod 1024) ^ -2) ^ 5, 16777216)
SetPixelV Target.hdc, i, j, largemod(12345 + Log((MandleBrot(CoordsToComplex(i, j, Trg), NewComplex(0, 0), 255) Mod 256) ^ -2) ^ 5, 16777216)
'Trg.PSet (i, j), largemod(12345 + Log((MandleBrot(CoordsToComplex(i, j, Trg), NewComplex(0, 0), 255) Mod 256) ^ -2) ^ 5, 16777216)
'Trg.PSet (i, j), largemod(12345 + (MandleBrot(CoordsToComplex(i, j, Trg), NewComplex(0, 0), 255) Mod 256) ^ 4, 16777216)
'Trg.PSet (i, j), largemod((MandleBrot(CoordsToComplex(i, j, Trg), NewComplex(0, 0), 255) Mod 256) ^ 6.21, 16777216)
' Trg.PSet (i, j), (16777216@ - (MandleBrot(CoordsToComplex(i, j, Trg), NewComplex(0, 0), 255) Mod 256) ^ 3) Mod 16777216
