Fractint, on the Fractint WWW pages is far-and-away the best and most popular fractal program, used to make almost all of the fractals on this site. Although people who have never used fractals before might need to read through the F1 help, it is very complete so nobody should have trouble making fractals. * * * * * Download it.
Aros Fractals by Aros systems is one of the most user-friendly fractal programs around, and creates nice looking fractal images of 3 different types (including Mandelbrot and dynamic) * * * ½ Download it.
The Fractal Orbits Program is good for both beginners and experts. As a beginner, you will have to experiment with some of the settings to get nice fractals, and it is pretty limited, but a good starter program.* * * Download it.
Ultra Fractals - This program by Ultra Fractals Inc. offers many significant improvements from Fractint, including a much more user-friendly environment and antialiasing capabilities. The downsides are the lack of versatility because of the Windows interface, the lack of built in functions, and that it is Shareware (after 30-day trial). * * * * Download it.
Xaos - Although this program by Xaos Inc. isn't the most powerful fractal tool, many novices will enjoy it because, besides having fun filtering effects, it allows real-time zooming. This means you can zoom smoothly into the fractal. This tool is not for serious fractal creators. * * * ½ Download it.
