Sometimes doodling simple patterns can ironically become a hassle because of the human mind's tendency to over-complicate things.For those situations, a third-party software program that can objectively generate patterns without human involvement can be the perfect tool. One such application is SuperFractalThing.

Simple and fun for creating fractal-based artwork

SuperFractalThing is a Java-based application that helps generate fractals based on predetermined colors or effects introduced by the user. It boasts a variety of effects (38 in total) and an incredibly diverse color generation process. The available color palette make it perfect for those who want to create fractal-based arts.The GUI (Graphical User Interface) is simple to understand, where only few settings are not visible in the main menu. The actual customization options for each fractal are tailored for experienced graphic designers.

Accurate fractal configuration settings

It is worth mentioning that during testing, entering values in the color or gradient brackets require pressing the "Ok" button in order to see the potential changes taking place, while other programs allow this to happen in real time. On top of that, the loading time following each change in value-input lasts between two and four seconds but, given the application's ability to generate virtually infinite fractals, this is understandable.The images can have a high level of detail, as zooming in can be done indefinitely, without additional system load, giving the impression that the fractals are procedurally generated as the user continues to enhance the design. The patterns that are created can be exported in PNG format, which are compatible with other photo editing software.

Lightweight fractal generator

To sum it up, SuperFractalThing is the epitome of what it means to be a lightweight program that can do a whole lot of work, as far as fractal generation is concerned.The program's algorithms help create beautiful visuals which mimic fractals found in nature, while also giving the user a lot of control over the fine details that make up the end result.
