Fractal Software

Fractal Forge: my fractal generating program of choice. Created by Uberto Barbini, it is freeware and very simple to use.

Fractint: have given up learning this one, it is a DOS program so being a post-DOS computer user it doesn't come naturally. Freeware.

The Mandelbrot Fractal Generator: allows you to explore the beautiful fractals of the Mandelbrot and Julia sets. Created by a fellow countryman Dan Freeland. Freeware.

Ultra Fractal: tried out the demo and liked what I was playing around with. Eventually I cracked and bought the software. Haven't looked back since. There is an excellent tutorial written by Janet Parke included with the download.
