Very beautiful colours. The image might benefit from a little more structure but, then again, it is sometimes good to have a simpler background on a desktop. It reminds me of a snail, the sea and, also, of a young creature curled up in a womb or nest. And probably more besides!

You might want to look at Suggested Software which is one of the FAQs and lists some of the programmes people use, including fractal programmes. How much choice you have depends on your OS. If you are using Windows, you seem to have the greatest number of options and lots of them are freeware or open source. If you're on a Mac or other OS, the options are more limited (at least if you don't want to spend money) and this sometimes frustrates me, but there are certainly still some nice programmes out there to get stuck into. If you are on a Mac, feel free to PM me and I'll let you know what I've found. Otherwise, if you are on Windows, you shouldn't have any trouble. If you're using something else, some of what I've found may still be relevant, but somebody else may be able to advise you better than me. Check out the FAQ first, though, and then ask questions if you have them.

Good luck!

P.S. You might wish to note that 'taffy' is a derogatory term, although I'm assuming you're using it in the sense of confectionery.

You have some nice colors here, and although as an image there's not a lot going on, it does make for a nice desktop background. I can't help you with the software question because I've found very limited resources for a Mac and I don't really have the time to learn how to do fractals anyway, so I strictly do photography.

I really like the colour choices. thanx for sharing

at first sight I also thought: nice colors.
but after some time watching it you can interprete some things into it.
I can see a colored version of the shower scene from Psycho, the drain under the bloody water... ok, the rest of the water is purple but who cares? that's art :o)

Nice work, like it :o)

I like the effect of a ripple on the water. Nice job.
