Hmmm, tell me again about my prowess with a pixel, I spilled the nectar of fairy-nymphs on your comment while reading it for the sixth time. Brian Froud has been a favorite for ages. You know, if you post some stuff and ask for Help, Critical comment and that you be kicked around people here will be happy to oblige. I generally don't like to help from the very beginning (download from here, install, run the program, click this, click that) but if you prove you're interested enough to do these things on your own and get up to speed, then I'm more than willing to give whatever guidance I can. Fractal Art is 1) exploration ... 2) identification ... 3) presentation ... (and my favorite) ... 4) frustration (when people fail to acknowledge you are a God) :) no egos were inflated during the deliverence of this message.

Ah, sorry about not replying sooner. I didn't realise I had a profile with messages :S
I'll start posting in 3 months, I have to finish my degree! I have some cool pix from Rome that I may put in the architecture section to get myself going and then progress to graphical manipulation.
1 question though, is there a particular tool (free/cheap) that you would advise using to create images?
Thanks!

I use Apophysis ---> Completely FREE

there are a couple tutorials there as well .... and some on Deviant Art

My account on DeviantArt --> KDH

up there by the beginning of the comment column there is a "subscribe to this discussion" click on that and then when you show up at Caedes there will be a "subscriptions" listing in the left hand column to show you messages that have been left on this page ... you are automatically subscribed to any images you post ... but you can subscribe to anything .. like a forum discussion that you want to be kept aprised of additions

good luck

Awesome, thanks a lot Keifer. I have a friend on DeviantArt, think he goes by the name of Silent Keystroke. In fact I think thats how I came to find this site!
