I can see that you have delved into the world of fractal art. Let me be the first to say, "Guten tag!"

Right off the bat, your JPEG has a lot of artifacts in it (it's not high-quality enough). Try to improve that. If I'm not mistaken, I think that you can upload PNG files. If you do that, it should resolve the problem.

It's not large enough. At least for me, when I look at a fractal I want to see all of the little details. I would make it at least 1.5 times as large.

This looks pretty, but it lacks any purpose. There isn't an overarching symbol in it, or something that you can fix your eyes on. Do you get what I'm saying? It looks as if the formula and location of focus were randomized by a computer. In the future, try to think up beforehand what message or feeling you want to get across. Look at some of Kevin's fractals and you'll get what I'm saying.

If you're going to use blank space, try to use it tastefully. A gradient would have remedied the problem a bit, but even then I would still think that it wouldn't work, just because it takes up too much space, and is contrasted with a messy border of a fractal.

That's the other thing; the border is way too messy. I'm okay with intricate, but this is messy. I can't see anything that's going on; it's a bunch of pixels of different colors mashed together. In the future, try clean up anything "messy". Maybe it's the program you're using.

I don't really like the color scheme. It's as simple as that. I find that Adobe Kuler ([link]) can be a big help in choosing color schemes. The color scheme is one of the most important parts of any fractal, and it's often what makes or breaks a piece.

Yea, that's about it. Sorry if I'm too harsh. Meow.
