It was a very exciting time when I discovered that I could generate fractal curves using only Irfanview, which is a free image editing program. They can be generated through an iterative procedure that involves the sharpen filter, and the crop and resize/resample features. Through much experimentation I found ways to generate new colors, which when converted to grayscale could provide different tones, as in "Ghostly". In "Fractal" I used photoshop to isolate just the boundary. If this type of fractal curve has not been classified, I hereby name it "Scheele's Curve". Anyone who wants to try to calculate its Hausdorff (fractal) dimension, be my guest.
