 * Support. Encyclopedic and gorgeous.  Do you have a lava lamp to go with it? ;)  Durova Charge! 21:06, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Yep, prettiful. Microchip08  21:40, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Question: Are the sides (namely the bottom) of the fractal supposed to be cut-off?  Spencer T♦C 00:17, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, no, but zooming out would obviously cause the whole thing to get smaller. I can give it a whirl if you'd like to see the bits that didn't render?  GARDEN  09:14, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Can you upload it as a different file? Looking at the image it only looks slightly cut-off, but if there's a lot more too it, I'd like to see it.  Spencer T♦C 00:28, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, sure. I'm rendering it now, should take about an hour.   GARDEN  09:30, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Done. GARDEN  10:36, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Oppose original, Weak oppose edit 1. I have to agree with Sasata below, and additionally us in a gallery in Apophysis (software) doesn't have too much enc.  Spencer T♦C 21:37, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * <-- Ok. I can attempt to expand Apophysis (software) to allow more thumbs (rather than a gallery) so the image can get prominence?   GARDEN  21:52, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose Interesting pattern and good resolution, but as one who's seen many fractal pics, this one doesn't have the wow I'd expect for a fractal FP. Sasata (talk) 03:02, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Support--Mbz1 (talk) 17:08, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Support either. Shoemaker&#39;s Holiday (talk) 21:58, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose Per Sasata, I don't think it's quite there.--HereToHelp (talk to me) 22:10, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
