Fractal Fr0st (Fr0st.wordpress.com)
I believe every fractal lover has already known about Apophysis. Sometimes ago I began my interest with it. But one week after I had tried Apophysis I have found Fractal Fr0st. Luckily I had only read the first few page of Apophysis tutorial. But Fractal Fr0st doesn't need any knowledge of math or tutorial manual. Just click, move, rotate and changing the parameter, then the beautiful fractal will eventually come out. Making fractal picture from Fractal Fr0st may be the same fun as you enjoy some hidden-treasure game, so it's addictive!
The followings are the fractal pictures I got during my first week with Fractal Fr0st.

Though I have only experienced about 5% of Fractal Fr0st formula, I believe it can render any fractal as we can get from Apophysis.

Note;
The middle of Fr0st is zero not O.
Fractal Fr0st has a very good saving function, you can set the same name for each fractal in a flame file.
Fractal Fr0st automatically creates bak files to prevent some data loss.
Rendering flame to jpeg is much smaller than to png.
Rendering the fractal picture with a screen resolution of 1152x864 it will give you a dead crash.

Both number 10 looks good to me.
I am spoiled so the others where odd
looking to me. But those with number 10
where cute or interesting.

All were rendered from 2 forms of 3 variables, Julian, linear and spherical.

Tip for Fr0st;
1. Double click the area behind the Var will toggle between 0 and 1.
2. Click the Value area and use the mouse wheel to decrease or increase the value.
I accidently found the former, but I do not know why it is not mentioned in the Fr0st website.
