Don't suppose that flower on left was computer generated? It looks like it could be almost...

I'll take this question as the ultimate form of flattery, thanks @bplus. The flowers on the left are all computer generated, as are the ones on the right. All the same qb64 program just with different settings. The only thing not specifically toiled over was the text. That stuff is cheap enough nowadays.

Wow! You've got my vote!  ...wait, it's QB64 right? Luv to see the part that generates the flower on left.

The height of my programming career! You continue to spoil me @bplus. However the vote turns out, I'm going home a winner from your comments.

Most of the flowers in the image came from taking various shots of the same fractal snowflake. The snowflake-making code itself is embedded in a 7000-line graphics pipeline I've been more-or-less inventing as I go. For completeness, here's that chunk:

Code: (Select All)
        Case "Snowflake 6"
            u = x
            v = y
            For j = 0 To PlotOptDCIteration
                cexp uu, vv, u, v, 6, 0
                cadd xx, yy, uu, vv, -1, 0
                cexp p, q, u, v, 5, 0
                cmul p, q, p, q, 6, 0
                cdiv u0, v0, xx, yy, p, q
                cadd u0, v0, u0, v0, x, y
                u = u0
                v = v0
            Next
            re = u
            im = v

... which explains nothing. There is a mountain of code that leads to the coloring, why it looks as sharp, or why the other flowers seem oil painted, so on and so on. Most of the work is finished but not explained yet, I'm slowly catching up with writing about all this. For a placeholder I'll paste the original pink background in full, you can hopefully see its snowflake-ness...

... and so it goes for every other element in the banner. I'm really underexplaining here, gotta save it for the writeup. Full code and stuff is all online:
