	Jans Mandel ~ v1.0 ~ Win9x/NT ~ 237 Kb
	author: Jan Verhoeven Home page: http://jansfreeware.com/ Mandel is another simple Mandelbrot set explorer that promises unlimited zooming, but with only a few options and color palettes. Images can be saved as BMP or GIF files. Last revision: 25 September 1999.

JM's Mandelbrot Explorer ~ v1.21 ~ Win9x/Me ~ 206 Kb

author: James Minchin
Home page: http://surf.to/JMEnterprises
This Mandelbrot explorer is small and easy to use. Includes several predefined formulas, and the user can modify and create his or her own. Regretfully, you cannot adjust the number of iterations, so deep zooming will always result in big black/washout regions (this has been sacrificed in favor of fast computation). Images can be saved as BMP files or immediately set as wallpaper. It also saves the fractal's location for further explorations. Includes documentation.

	Julia ~ v4.23 ~ Windows ~ 128 Kb
	author: J.M.B. v.d. Ven Home page: http://home.wxs.nl/~josv/ Julia is the latest incarnation of an earlier program made by M. Hendrix back in 1994. This current version is an extension that can draw Julia and Mandelbrot Set fractals. It can generate random images as well. Some parameters can be modified. Last revision: 13 April 2003.

	Kaos Rhei ~ v0.9 ~ Win9x/Me/NT ~ 475 Kb
	author: Bjoern Ischo Home page: http://www.feldfunker.de/software/kr.htm Kaos Rhei can generate more than 12 different fractal types, including M-Set, N-Set and M/N combination. It also gives you full control over coloring of your fractal images through algorithms. Last revision: 12 December 1997.

Ktaza ~ v4.2 ~ Win9x/Me ~ 658 Kb

author: Stephen C. Ferguson
Home page: http://www.eclectasy.com/Iterations-et-Flarium24/
Ktaza combines Sterling-ware-like 40-plus fractal types with Atriatix's strange attractors and Martin - Gumowski Mira fractals. It opens two image views, one for each method. Not so easy for beginners. Source code available. Version 0.10 is still freely available at Ferguson's home page.

L-System ~ v4.0.1 ~ Win9x/Me/NT ~ 1.45 Mb

author: Timothy C. Perz
Home page: http://www.geocities.coms/tperz/L4Home.htm
This is an incredible and very easy to use application (but you better know what your doing anyway) to draw colorful and eye-catching Lindenmayer Systems (LSystems) in 3D. It is also full of options to control all aspects of your creations, and includes a random generator. Images can be saved to BMP or JPG format, and 3D models can be imported into any 3D program that recognizes the *.DXF file format (such as Bryce and Ray Dream). A new version of this software is under way (L-System 5). Beta version is already available.

LS-SchetchBook ~ v0.1b ~ Win9x/Me/NT ~ 2.32 Mb

author: Roberto S. Ferrero
Home page: http://coco.ccu.uniovi.es/malva/sketchbook/
This tool is intended to explore L-Systems. You can start by using the included models, or if you have some experience or know the mathematics involved in these kind of complex systems, you can start from ground-zero. It comes with a syntax checker to verify your input, then produce the computations and visualize the output as an image or sequence, both of which can be save as BMP files. The Help file is in Spanish, but English (and Spanish) documentation is available online.

	Makin Magic Fractals ~ v2.4 ~ DOS ~ 503 Kb
	author: David Makin Home page: http://skyscraper.fortunecity.com/terabyte/966/ MMFrac can produce 2D and 3D fractal images of various types. Users of Fractint will find his generator easy to use, but for non-DOS users it could result a little bid difficult. Nevertheless, its 3D renderings are quite beautiful, and make this application worth a try. Last revision: 2001.

Mandelbrot ~ v1.0 ~ Windows ~ 174 Kb

author: Arne "Timwi" Heizmann
Home page: http://www.lionking.org/~timwi/
More than a fractal generator like all other programs listed in here, Timwi's Mandelbrot is more like an fractal exploration tool, since it's extremely simple: it only draws Mandelbrot and Julia sets fractals. Pictures cannot be saved, except by capturing the screen, but images are so simple, it's not even worth trying that if you have any other application. Anyway, it's not intended for image creation as most other generators.

Mandelbrot on Cocoa ~ v3.52 ~ Mac OSX ~ 689 Kb

author: SADA
Home page: http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA026611/
Mandelbrot on Cocoa is a simple fractal program to generate Mandelbrot-related fractals. It is easy to use, but it's also too simple. It is more like an exploration tool, since it lacks the filters and algorithmic routines on most of today's generators. You can zoom and unzoom at will, and images can be saved at the window resolution, so if you want a larger picture, just drag the window border until it is as big as you like, then save your pic in PNG format. (Universal binary).

	Mandelbrot Program ~ v1.0 ~ DOS ~ 136 Kb
	author: P.A.Grosse Home page: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/pagrosse/ Do not mix up this Mandelbrot Program with the previous one. This one is a small DOS generator that runs smoothly in Win9x and is pretty intuitive to use. You can use it to explore several types of fractals. Postcardware. Last revision: 7 November 1997.
