[QUOTE="fusangite, post: 487040, member: 7240"] This thread is certainly bringing out the best in people. Thanks so much for everyone's contributions. First thing, did people understand the distinction I was making about bitmap versus fractal GMing? If not, any advice on rephrasing the question so I can get a response or two. A few comments/questions: Seasong writes: This is terminology with which I'm not familiar. What are flats and rounds?
