Description
Galaxy fractal brushes for Paint Shop Pro 10 and whatever, made out of my Matrix of a Dream fractal which can be found in my gallery.FAV IF YOU USE.
No credit necessary!
If you plan to use them commercially, a comment would be appreciated, however. But seriously. They're brushes. Who credits brushes anyway?
Anyway, just a bit for the PSP users, since I know what a pain it is to not only find decent brushes, but brushes that don't need credit.

I just downloaded your fractal brushes for PSP.Β Believe it or not I have no idea how to use them yet. I use to have PSP 9.0 and used it a lot but not making fractals. Now I have PSP Pro X3 and am just trying to learn how to make fractals. Do you have any tips for me? I thank you for sharing these great looking brushes.Β β₯β₯

Oh, if you want to make your own fractals, I encourage you to get this free program, www.apophysis.org/
It's how I made the fractals for these brushes. These are just pattern brushes, but if you want to make your own fractals, that's the best free program out there.

Wow I thank you so much. I went and got the apophysis program for fractals. I see there are examples of fractals on black backs. So how do you save them? I will go read the tutorials but for now, what format do you save them inΒ to be able to post them on Deviantart?Β Is the idea behind this program that they want you to use their creations to add on to for one's own personal touch? Or is there a way to start a new project all your own. I really should go read more on this all instead of bugging you. Your brushes look so professional that you created. Okay off I go. Thanks once again for your help.

Pretty sure I exported them from the program as jpgs or pngs using a render option (it's been a long time since I made these brushes, mkay?), but if you can't figure out how to do that you can probably just screenshot them too. I highly suggest tutorials aplenty.

yes yes and yes I have to go read the tutorials which I will do.Β Thanks so much for the reply.

As I said in a previous comment, this looks intriguing. I'll give 'em a shot.

Ayep, have fun! Thanks! I have one more brushset, but hey...
Thanks for the comments. Most people don't even do that. >.>
π: 0 β©: 1
Ooh, I'll check around for that other brushset then.
No prob on the comments! I noticed that. A lot of art gets comments around here, but the brushes or art program resources don't. 
I'll let you know when I post something.

Wow, it's like you practically called my last message. (dies) I know. Well, a lot of the art doesn't get comments either, but it's to be expected. But then I get over 100 downloads and 5 comments on the brushes. I guess this ticks some people off and it makes me a bit sad that people DON'T take the time to comment on something they'll be using for free--and I do offer my brushes for free, commercial/DA/offsite use... the least they could do if they don't have to credit or tell me (due to my rules) is thank me. ^_^
Don't feel you have to let me know, though I will fav and comment. It's such a PAIN remembering who made what brush when you have a lot.
But thanks for commenting and downloading! Made my day to get a couple long comments rather than "YAY BRUSHES!"
π: 0 β©: 1
Haha! I'm psychic like that. 
True, a lot of art doesn't get comments. An artist friend and I talked about how you need CG anime/game fan art to get any hits if you're the sort of person trying to get popular here. The problem is, what about those of us (like me) that like fan art, anime style, and CG? I've been drawing the anime style since long before it was popular and now I feel lost in the shuffle. D: /tangent
Aaaanyways, I don't know why people don't comment or don't post more thoughtful responses. (We had a joke among some DA acquaintances here that "Good job!" was about all anyone could do for awhile.) My guess would be that many are just posting artwork and want others to look at their stuff, but they aren't actually around to help other artists.
In your case, I think you do have the skill to make more than abstract brushes. Sometimes the creative process requires facing some insecurity about our skill level to progress.
It may be a pain, but that's why I faved the brushes. xD

Woo. Yeah, I've discussed the same things with friend.
-Anime fanart.
That's the only way to get pageviews these days, it seems... (dies) I don't even draw anime anymore, it's just... like... another trend. I loved it at first but it's EVERYWHERE, gives me a headache now.
I like making abstract brushes though! I should just make a more epic pack or something. I've got all these ideas and so little time.
Funny.
I comment way more than I post art.
And my comments are often long too. It's sad when I just get "Thanks!" after a long comment. I love it when people reply back in detail why they did things the way they did. I've pretty much stopped commenting on artists with a lot of comments, unless they're replying back to most of them. It's like... do they even READ them? Or do they just expect the crowd to come to them? I talk to the people who take the time to comment on me. Because it's not many, I'd rather make friends with them.

Pageviews are overrated! xD
I'm a bit of an overly stubborn/competitive person in the area of the anime style. I have it that I was among the first to start drawing it (I worked my tail feathers off to switch from Disney-esque to anime), so the rest of them should quit.
If it's not a trend, and it's really something that will go in the Art History books as one culture influencing the art of another, then I imagine there won't be an end to the anime style. Bleh. I'm not sure how I feel about that. >.>
Hey, if you make an epic pack I'd be thrilled! But I hear you about time. "I comment way more than I post art." *cough* Yeah. *raises hand* Guilty. xD;
Your comments are not too long! Not for me, anyway. I write books though. Heh! When I scroll through an artist piece with a lot of comments, I see most of them are "Good job!" "Awesome, man!" "Love it!" and not really anything that merits much more than a "Thanks" in response. If I feel inclined I will leave a thoughtful comment on a piece with a lot of comments and see. I've been surprised. *homanga or ^skifi for instance, will respond to thoughtful comments. ^_^
"It's sad when I just get "Thanks!" after a long comment."
I've had that happen! I wonder sometimes, "Hm, maybe I typed too much. Maybe their brain overloaded after seeing the wall of text." I never comment on that artist with the same effort again. I do have chronic curiosity, though. I will occasionally try again on that artist and see if it was just how they were feeling at that time. Or, when I find a new artist I will comment out of curiosity to see how they'll respond.
"I talk to the people who take the time to comment on me. Because it's not many, I'd rather make friends with them."
:3 Yeah, that's a good idea. If nothing else you're acknowledging their efforts to at least comment, and possibly coax more out than, "Hey, love your brushes!"

Well, I did make some more blotches on a paper that I want to turn into brushes... but yes.
See, I like you because your comments are as long as mine. I write NOVELS. (well, for real too, but in comments, I mean) And here you are, you read them and reply equally lengthily. It's sooo nice. XD I forget who the artists were... I've had ~tobiee and =Cataclysm-X and *messa reply in depth to my comments. At least in such a way that 1) I knew they read it and cared about my opinion even if they disagreed and 2) they conversed back.
Actually, from what I recall, I asked Tobiee some questions about what he did his art with and ranted about not having a tablet, I ranted at Cataclysm in response to her artist notes about the popularity trend and the reason why I didn't mind seeing her art hit the front page when some, I wince at, and Messa, I admit I commented on her when in a bad mood and left a pretty in depth comment and then added something snarky about 'but since you're a popular artist you probably won't even read this'. I feel kinda bad for that, actually, and went out of my way to leave a couple more decent comments on her stuff later. Surprisingly enough she responded in detail in kind.
Hence, those three there, for popular artists, I have quite a bit of respect for them and what they do.
I try to comment on new artists too... found some awesome stuff there and it's nice to introduce them to DA.

Ooh! That should turn out interesting, especially if you have any of the paper texture show up beneath the blotches.
Haha! Yeah, I write novel-length comments as well as novels. I think it's the writer blood in both of us. I'm a bit light on the comments tonight since it's after 2 am and I'm trying to catch up. xD I wish I could spend all day on DeviantART, really. Meet a lot of fantastic people here. But, you know. Life. Blah.
Aww, I'm glad you've had some people reply back like that! It's even bold of them to be willing to disagree. Good people, there.
Do you still work without a tablet? I honestly don't blame you for ranting about that. CG was painful with a mouse. >.> There are some nice, kind artists that have totally earned their stripes as far as popularity goes. And there are others that I wonder how they got popular at all. A lot of popular ones even bring in a crowd from another site. That's cheating! xD But yeah, I could rant about it. I think it's mostly that I wish I had a crowd follow me around like that. 
Good for you! :3 A lot of new artists come here with a lot of talent. Others learn very quickly and their art improves drastically if they have good support from a few folks here. I've been amazed how some of the new artists just blossom.

Weeeeeee'll see. Yeah. I was quite surprised to run into someone who comments about as dramatically as me. I love it, actually. It makes me feel like less of a failure since I tend to not be accepted in any crowd due to rambly posts. Like, crowds online. I avoid people in real life too, thoughhhhhh... seriously, teenage girls are TERRIFYING. o_O
I have a tablet now. I wouldn't be CGing anymore. Because I would have severe carpal tunnel syndrome. When I got my tablet, it was like a huge moment of relief as my wrist screamed THANK YOU GOD, I NEEDED THIS!!! No, really, I see people talk about taking time to adjust to it... I was adjusted to it in an hour while gleefully cackling and running around with a mad grin on my face and going THIS FEELS SO GOOOOOD!
I CGed with a mouse for far too long. Waahhhh. My featured picture was done with a mouse. Actually, if you look in my gallery, I set aside the mouse done ones. Yep. But the stuff now is usually tablet done. I'm trying a new mouse picture just to see if I can still do it, but only working on it here and there.
Hee. Yeah. I occasionally wish I had a crowd too. But then I look at the crowds. They fuss, complain, make two word comments. "YAY MORE!" "PRETTY!" "ew." "Okay." "Yay!" They flame you if it's not up to their expectations. They push you into a road. The crowd isn't really that great, all in all.
I try to support people, but I'm also a critic. Oddly enough, most people don't mind it because I'm a very in depth critic. Most people just go "it sucks". I write a novel. (dies) People joked about using my forum posts as word padding in Nanowrimo... oh maan....
I wish I could spend all day on DeviantArt too, but then I remember I hate most of the people because they're jerks and am glad I can go to all sorts of different sites. ^_^ But every once in a while I meet a gem. It's relieving to know that not everyone makes two word comments or flames and trolls and draws Nurato fanart...
Heh.
But you're cool. XD

Teenage girls... don't even get me started. It was a relief to hit a high enough teen age that they all scattered for college. That is, until I saw the same bloody cliques going on in college. >.<;
Glad you're brave enough to continue working with a mouse. o.o; I'm very glad you're pacing yourself through that pic though. No Carpal Tunnel!
....Really good point about the crowds. Sounds like book reviewers. You wouldn't believe how many of them don't actually read the book even halfway, by the way. >.> If I'm critiquing someone else's work I always try to mix good stuff with my criticisms. I have never looked at a piece of artwork in such bad shape that I couldn't find something good to say about it. What seems to happen more often is this: the artist is down on themselves about a piece of work that's just fine and they actually need encouragement. If I know of any, I'll recommend a tutorial to help with something I'm seeing a weakness on.
Buuut, since I know nothing about brushes I don't have constructive criticism. =/
Sorry to hear you have felt that way about DA. I used to. That was at least part of the pile of reasons I left DA 2 of the 3 times. This time, since I've come back for far more selfish reasons I'm loving DA. Gotta love the irony in that. I'm here now for two main reasons:
- Post old artwork (and the occasional new one) for me to reference from other computers.
- Chat it up with other people that have a talkative online persona.
I've found enough of the latter that I'm now constantly behind on comments, LOL. Don't get me wrong, I'm incredibly grateful for the fact that people will stop and comment on an old artwork or even 
LoL, thanks. xD

What are you using? Photoshop? They get all the cool brushes anyway. ^_^ I have Photoshop now but I'm still going to make PSP brushes because they get the short end of the stick for resources. But you can feel free to make brushes out of the fractal this came from for your own use or maybe I'll post an image pack sometime.
