This is the Gallery for the Mandelbulb3D Chain Pong - II Started November 2014 The members are: :iconfractalweress: :iconeddie-65: :iconmarysfractals: :iconellarien: :iconQuor-Toth: Currently taking a break: :iconkrompulos: :iconjtashley45: Past members: :iconjim373: :iconGraphicLia: :icongforce45: ==== Official Rules & Parameters for MB3D Chain II ==== #1 Post-processing adjustments to color, contrast, editing of minor errant pixels, frames, signatures and the use of backgrounds is perfectly acceptable. #2 The Chain started with this formula restriction: The starting formula are the only formula to use. No adds or deletes. You may toggle off or on, Julia. Please don't switch to DE COmbinate mode. As of January 1, 2015 the following changes can be made: One chain member per cycle may change/add/delete one formula if he or she wishes to do so. The right to make the change rotates through the chain's members. Each cycle, it is the next member's option to effect a formula change. #3 Post your work within 72 hours of it being your turn. If you know in advance you will be unable to take your turn contact the next in line or Sabine. With enough advance notice, arrangements will be made to accommodate the situation. If no confirmed arrangement is made, after 72 hours, the next link in the chain will take their turn. Remember, this is really about having fun so don't stress out it there is a minor hiccup in the schedule. #4 When you post your work, mention the next artist listed in the schedule in your description. The schedule is at the bottom of this journal. It is also ideal if you send the next artist a note - that always gets a person's attention! #5 Don't forget to post the parameters in the description! How It Works 1 The Chain Admin will post the starting parameters to the first link in the chain. 2 Once posted the next artist in the chain has 72 hours to create and post their tweak. 3 Once the tweak is posted in the gallery, the next artist on the chain is notified. **Notification via the "@" command on dA. If you aren't sure, it's easy, just put the @ in front of the deviant id in your image description and that deviant will get a notice that they have been mentioned in a post. THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT. If you have any questions about how to do this, just ask one of us and we'll be happy to help you with it. 4 Each member of the chain gets their turn in this way. 5 The last person on the chain notifies the first person and the process starts over. 6 In the case of someone in the chain not making their 72 hour deadline, nottaworry! The NEXT person in the chain will pick up the parameters and move on, but note them if you possibly can! This way, when real life gets hectic and you may not have time to do your post (hey, it happens) the process moves on automatically with no fuss and no bad juju. The Starting Parameters The seed parameters is a work by the late @skyzyk. Gary was an outstanding member of the Mandelbulb3D community. By using his parameters as a starting point we are honoring his memory and art. The selected piece is: Aurore The parameters are: Mandelbulb3Dv17{ T.....K0...r3...61...2.....WXAZG1Sk4.DzLk78dtL2EFFdeaT.hlzvFPz1m7z72.xarbwrfHW/k ................................AGpUoYTcM.2........Y./..................o.2..... ................/gE//....6ESa...55...2E......QtDwCQzh9mD/gU0RC4E...m/dkpXm1....U ./k0SP2D/2../2........U../.......EzD......................U0.....y1...sD...../.. .wXaNadDGCMBXMCwmuHyjZl6IF9xy8DGoNwym4nDs7lSsbMilwXFEuVNLYwuyerCnz89Q4gjVUBahN20 gv11EjiDFqOAzEOP6UYzSGjD.....3YU70..R./.......kD/2....AE/2E..................... .............A6U.i1...sD....zUJRh..ypp0.MOL9.UnRh..qrp0.sVL9.UFSh............... ................G2kzBS09o6UQ.2A.Y/...c0...EE....W0AGC2B...UA....a....g06..EeKvKO ..EIbiLUNSGivOA9PmugoEG8fQ7..c../46Z.Q6Fbf24LNvjdKFcRtBvvz1...........G.8.kBws1. todIWOorVyX.0PJWp1Puz0...........203z9nAu.k6mIqp.taszw1osMgdlHzDShM3ZaYq1z9..c.. 0RH9.Q6Fbf24LNvjZBL9s6JkUz9..........EF6I..VHx0.AfpnSPCqaz1uk5LfQvXwz8ra5DlJDw.E IEW0zH09r.EMoIRnIlIqzcnJXNw/X0xjw9zUrWWqG.2..gea50kY4W5.0K/V8K7.YMG8.sr8bt3J.IF3 J..5/Fede0kugnC.PzIVyV5.m/bP.opKg/qH.gLQX/kjbhecM0.n59A.HvKQmh5.tdrU.wQR9q6Z..Qk 11kowFtXy/.eb88....cU08.zz/cU08.yz1cU08.xz3cU08..A5PV7JNYJ5Sic4Qb/kN.Qb9e/rN.sWO E....E.....6....2....A....EEh3aSdtqNU6oPs/UQ..........................k/9....... ..........kSIsuFVf5vz0..................6.2..................................... ................................................................................ .....................2.....3....8....oINiRKNmB1.fZqA.A3.r/...................... .....MU/4MU/4................U.E........kz1........wz.........zD..........EJqTZ0 IfTpz.....................EJqTZ0IfTpz...................Uz1........sz0.......... ................................/....E/...E.....TNoPgFKOiRKA.E5.H/.............. ................................8QxckpX05z1........wz........................... ................................................................................ ..........................................E.....I....2....kL4lKOkVZKX/.NZ/UN.... .....................6.......................................................... .............UzDOaNaNaNa7z1..................................................... ..............................skyzyk..........................} Thank you Gary.
