I just wrote an application (in C) to generate these.

I generated one that was 64000x48000 pixels, but it is too big for any application to view!? What would /hr/ recommend to open this mother fucker?

pic related, is smaller version of said pic.

Your question seems kind of absurd. Why would you want to open these? Unless your monitor is the size of a house then isn't going to look just like this 8000x6000 one? Or will it be more complex?

Easy

Use ACDsee
By now the best image viewer, 9000 better than the shitty "Bridge" from Adobe.

Also faster and support really HR images.

You can keep zooming in on a fractal forever and there is always more detail. That is what makes fractals so cool.

OP here, I want to see how details the individual curls/bulbs are in an image this big. :)

Why don't you just render the 64000x48000 to multiple files of say 8000x6000 with each file displaying a part of the whole?

Ok, I'm intrigued. Could you /rs/ this program?

Stupid question: why not just use fractint or one of the derivatives which displays it and allows you to pan and zoom as you go?

(Yes, I understand that there is a cool factor in writing your own software. But there's also a strong wtf factor when you're carving a new wheel for your conestoga wagon out of a discarded pallet down at the tire store.)

I would, but it's not very user friendly atm. It's also Linux only. If you're still interested I will post it though.

I wrote my own Mandelbrot generator in C as well. Does yours just do shading from red to black (256 shades), or can it do rainbow shading? Mine does rainbow shading with 768 different shades.

I also used OpenMP to multi-thread the actual escape time calculations - it greatly reduces the generation times. It's very easy to implement.

I found that the results look much better if you create them twice as big as you want them then resize them down in an image editor. This essentially anti-aliases them by oversampling.

Good job! I find the Mandelbrot set fascinating.

This is one from my generator. Made at 16K x 16K then scaled down to 8K x 8K.

not really. both float and double have limited precision.

God my school sucks. I've done 6 fucking CS classes and I haven't done ANYTHING with graphics yet. All they have taught is fucking command prompt shit and webpages. I had an internship and they were like "WTF, make GUIs dumbass," so I had to teach myself .net.

To be fair, these aren't exactly graphically complex. I presume the OP used something like PNGwriter to output the image? Mine uses EasyBMP at the moment. Both use syntax along the lines of setPixel(x,y,colour).

I'm going to alter mine to output PNG if I can... The 16K x 16K BMP I generated was over a gigabyte in size.

I'll post the source of mine if I can get it to a stage where it's a bit more friendly to use.
