Hey, these have been done for a while, and now my server is up again. And posting this is easier than writing a good rant. :P

Very nice.  I like all the bazillion changes you made to the first one to create the second one.

These are actually entirely independent from each other. And all the filters that I applied were part of XaoS itself, I didn't even need another app to post-process them.

Didja notice that the last one is the original for my current avatar? I applied an edge-detect filter, a "distant sun" flare effect, and an ordinary fuzzy black dot to it in Gimp.

No, I didn't.  I don't have my browser set to adjust for size so they are fricking huge.  Nice effects added to the last one.  Looks like, which is it, a nutron star, or another kind of 'dead' star that shoots that stuff into space?

Old Benoit Mandelbrot used to call it something like "the weird bug". I've got his book  The Fractal Geometry of Nature. The pics are nice but don't try to read the text - you could probably find his picture in the encyclopedia under "pedant"  :lol: He's also very vindictive of anyone in his fieldwho doesn't worship him. (He's actually an economist, BTW.)

I dunno.  Thats means she'd have to be TOA as well (since they met) and keeping a triple persona thing going that long would be hard as hell.  Plus the rants dont seem her style.

True...but she IS famous for having about 50 monikers at any given time.

And she HAS written rants.  Over at EB&G there is her racist droolings.

I'm inclined to think that she isn't smart enough to pull it off but it's something that she would do if she could.

I think the best defense is to pwn everyone who has it coming.

I've read them, but Ataraxia's stuff does seem far more along the lines of what Eric would write, compared to Eldora.  My 0.00002 pennies, anyway (have to get the exchange rate right).

Look at the original rants:  They aren't that good, and they spew HER normal line:  "I AM SAVING TEH BOARD! I AM A HEROOOOO!"
