This did not come out AT ALL like I wanted. However, it is something I did just to learn, and for that, it has been most excellent, if painful. LOL. I learned so much about what NOT to do when you are setting up a complicated render in M3D. Scaling the fractal (going from the smaller preview render to a larger one) isn't quite linear and in this case the suggested scaled render settings did not quite translate. So, this isn't quite the fractal that I saw in my preview LOL. Also, I just didn't have the patience to do a really good job with the rendering so this one is rather smaller because it took so long for me to get things figured out and done.

Anyway, this is me, trying to pull together all the things I've learned so far about maps/textures/lighting and now adding the boardIFS function with reflection. I did not realize until after the several long hour render was done that I could change the color map of the floor D'OH! so you are stuck with this background which I think really doesn't fit. Also, this was rendered before I learned a little bit more about adjusting the settings to reduce wild pixels.

AND yes, of course, I did my best to anti-alias in Photoshop Also adjusted curves and whatnot.

I will probably put my big-girl pants on and try to tackle this again, to get a high resolution version of this that doesn't suck

In any event, this is a further meandering that started off here:

*** UPDATE and a little giggle ****

dark-beam was kind enough to tell me that "Trifoxcomplexangles is a very hard formula to work with. It was made more for testing purposes."

Ahhh thank you Luca! I feel a whole lot better
