oooohhh... very cool!

What app(s) do you use? I love this. Is it a fractal app?

I still have a LOT of your fractals I need to make banners out of. I'm sorry for the delay. My life was put on hold.

Sometimes when your life is put on hold, I think there's a reason for it. I'm trying to figure out the reason. I'm supposed to be learning something.

I'm going to meditate on your image here and maybe it will come to be... it has tendrils reaching out to answers!

Love the color palette!

Thanks. I started off with a picture of a tarantula from MorgueFile. I used http://www.picnik.com/ to edit the photo in my browser. I mainly just used a lot of filters and color distortion effects, just very basic types of click and drag image editing tools. It's kind of a cookie cutter mock graphic design program as far as not having more advanced tools, but very easy to use. For someone used to using Paintbrush or similar, it can be a fun tool. It can be a somewhat efficient cropping tool, too, because basic cropping can be done in browser. Probably not the only or best site like that, but they have a Google Chrome extension so I have been known to use it.
