  I am always on the lookout for more fun toys (software) to play with. Recently I’ve been seeing work done with Apophysis and I knew I had to add it to my toy chest (grin). However I always have a problem. I am a linux gurl and even though I have an old windows xp computer (read slow and little memory) I rarely use it except for some old fractal generating programs I still like to play with. I wasn’t sure if I could get Apophysis to work on the old box but decided to try anyway. So I began downloading it on my linux computer. Now there is a program for linux called Crossover that allows us to run windows programs but not all of them work quite like they should. Crossover is improving considerably and I do use it to run Paint Shop Pro v7 for some of my work. If I had Photoshop I could also run that under Crossover but I didn’t even think that Apophysis would. So as I started downloading I was given the option of installing Apophysis under Crossover. Now just because it gives the option is no guarantee the program will run correctly but I thought why not give it a try so I did …. and guess what! IT WORKS!!! I was so pleased I just had to tell everyone that it did! now if there are any other linux users here at RB and who are itching to try Apophysis check out Crossover perhaps then you’ll catch the Apophysis bug as I have (big smile) this image is my first of a likely many (grin) ... hope you enjoy it as much as I had in designing it (big smile) owlspook

  This is the 1st in what turned out to be a series of 5. I didn’t know it would be a series when I did this one, but one thing leads to another. Then, the 4th one came to me when I saw snoopy in an apophysis, which turned the series around. I hope you like it, or are at least amused. / / A Gigantic planet-like object has been traveling from a nearby solar system / headed for the earths orbit around the sun. This giant is in constant / communication with a moonbase that has been monitoring and interacting / with earths affairs for over 2000 years. “They” have been largely responsible for / disinformation about ufo’s and alien encounters. “They” also control the media / and influence governments and religions worldwide. When the attack and / takeover occurs we won’t even see it coming! / They are now in orbit and mustering their warships for the final takeover! It won’t be long now……. / The first blow to anesthetize our defenses. It looks like there may be some collateral damage to the moon base, however. Maybe we’ll have a chance.? The invaders bring in the big guns! This is where it got crazy when I spotted what looked like Snoopy in an Apophysis, that turned my mind in another direction. / / Under cover of apophysis fractals, a patriotic beagle in a sopwith camel confronts the invading force. Maybe we do have a chance! Victory! / / I see a Sopwith Camel parked on the big gunship, and it’s shooting holes in it’s own mother planet! The saucers have exploded and are disintegrating! The patriotic beagle has commandeered the gunship and has saved our planet!
