Ohhh...I see why you like this one best.
Crystal and fluid, fragile and catacomb-ed, like a Glass Spider's twin web.

Wow!!!! 4000 quality?!?! I usually set mine around mid 200's but I'll check out the 4000 and see how it turns out. Thanks. Very nice BTW.

Thank you, Chuck. 
When I started using Apophysis I had 256MB of RAM, a Pent3 and zero patience so I used much lower Quality and size settings. I increased the settings when I got a 1GB of RAM & a Pent4. Most images now look better (depends on the complexity of the flame). Still no patience but I can deal with the render times.
To render this flame at 1280x1024 on my machine would take exactly 1 min with Quality set @ 250. It would take 45 min @ 4000. I rendered this flame both ways and although there is a difference in the clarity of the images, the lower quality image isn't too bad because the flame is very simple. A Quality setting of 250 for a complex flame would result in a less pleasing image.

Thanks for stating. My Comp doesn't have that much RAM and I have as much patience as you. My comp has a 3400+ Processor and has 512 RAM so that's why I put mine so low. Plue I like exporting the flame as a .png so I can mess with it in photoshop. Thanks again for your insight,

Yes! Silly me only just learned about rendering with transparency. D'oh! It's interesting that with some flames, the render time is slashed drastically and with others there's no change at all.

I know. Really, I have a decent computer and a transparent render for me at 200 quality usually takes about 75 minutes!

What oversample rate are you using on these new ones? It be impressive.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Most of my renders are:
Quality - 4000
Filter Radius - .01
Oversample - 2
To go with an oversample of 3, I'd have to slash the dimensions and wait an eon. Ain't happenin'. I like huge images and I have no patience when it comes to render times. So much for being virtuous.

In which case it's a very good choice for a title

I should be so bubbly.
KAH? The short answer is that I'm lazy as hell.
The long answer is that I was having trouble naming the images and then realized that my choice matters little to anyone else because the images aren't meant to convey any message. I decided to use something that matters a great deal to me. KAH = my daughter's initials.
