One can make simple fractals with the Bomber component.

Changing the Particle will give variations on the theme.

The "Inverse" kind is also possible.

WOW!!! We have been working both on the same thing
I have just also made also a Fractal images filter based on bomber  |

Here are the Bomber settings that are needed to achieve this.
Note especially Layer order "Big on top".  |

Hi SpaceRay,
Yup, that's the way to do it! The other important thing is to feed a particle with transparent background so the particles on top don't completely cover up the ones below. (As you have obviously done.) |

Beautiful examples you have done, and like your version that gives those results.
Is this above made with just ONE bomber with the setting you have shown ? |

Since the Bomber layering works by dividing the image area (repeatedly) into four quadrants, the most obvious choices for particles are things that align to that pattern.

Yes, it is just one bomber. In fact, the filter for the top image is just 3 components (plus Result) total!

When you spherize the above, you get this fractal spherical tiling.

YES, you are right, this is very important to get this effect, because if not is difficult to see the effect and is not the same at all. And yes, I have used the transparency lifesaver 
My filter is more complex, made from 4 bombers as I want to be able to mix shapes, images, colors and textures in a fractal way. This is an example using two of the bombers (you can choose many and how you want to use them)  |

Thanks very much for sharing your own version. Sorry that yet I can´t upload my version as is not good to show it and is yet in beta stage and does not look as good as I want.
WOW!! I have not thought that this could be done this way, this looks awesome and fantastic, great and beautiful examples. |

Cool and nice fractal multi tree like shown in your last example. Like it.
I have tried your uploaded filter above and love the way you have done it, and like also all the presets showing well what is possible AND LOVE MUCH TOO all the great collection of beveled shapes you have put inside this filter to show as fractal examples. This shapes are very useful also for using them on others filters and to to try them in others ways. This is VERY useful and interesting, thanks very much for sharing it here Here I have added a color control to the bomber tint color  |

I am making an update to your great and well done filter so you can have also my idea of fractal images (like the ones above with the lifesaver) and also 3 more shapes (16 in total using Totte´s Megaswitch) and also add some more controls.
I will upload it when I have it ready |

Thank you both for sharing those fractals. One can never have too many fractals  |

Thanks Morgantao
Here I have made another different version, is the same as above BUT the main difference is that NOW YOU CAN USE A MASK to render the result so the fractals will be laid around the borders of the mask instead of filling the whole screen, and the 60 presets has been changed to show this mask. All the presets are using the Lifesaver with transparency mask, but you can use of course your own mask loaded through any image with transparency you may have. I have put it in the lower part all what is related to the new masking Bomber Fractal Simple with Images Masked.ffxml |

This is one of those methods where you slap yourself on the forehead and say...Geez..It was right there all along... Good one ThreeDee..Stupid things happen to computers for stupid reasons at stupid times! |

Make an image with the two gradients at the top half and transparent in the bottom half. Otherwise same method. |

Thanks very much for showing this and is interesting and useful Also using your shape done in this filter I have taken it to the other filter above and I have got this  |

Changing the white to images with a color control through the Threshold

and now changing the black to images with another color control through the threshold

Or changing the circle for a circular saw shape in another configuration

Or using a heart with threshold to make a frame for the source image

What was missing on this one to really make a difference and so they look more separated is some drop shadows and added also shadows to the lifesaver itself, so I have modified the filter to have this two kind of shadows applied to the source image. I think looks much better than the above one here  |
|||||
| Posted: August 18, 2012 11:16 pm | ||||||

In the same way this one
This one above is too much plain and can´t really see well the different elements, so let´s give shadows that make it pop Which one looks better from this two ?  |

Instead of the Lifesaver I have put a sunflower

Here is another one using a flower with transparent background so you can see through the hole of the round frame and does not fill it all as in the previous examples
Although I need still to fix the color of the shadow when using this transparent background images as it does not look good (it´s gray instead of black)  |

Way to go SR, the drop shadow version look much deeper and better indeed

Thanks Morgantao, I was going to upload it here BUT have found an error on the shadows when the border is white
and also if the iiner image has transparent background.
I will upload this new version when I have it fixed. This has tow kind of different shadows to make it look better, inner shadows and outer shadows (like drop shadows) that are all around. |

I forgot about this filter and now with the Circle Fractal example by CFandM in this thread I remembered it
I have not been able to solve the problem with the shadow that sometimes does not work right so I am uploading the filter as it is now, if someone wants to use it. Bomber Fractal Simple Shapes with Images and with Inner and Drop Shadows.ffxml |
