May I include your flames with Fractorium?

I've been working on yet another release and decided that I want to include something in it which I've been thinking about for a long time.

I've always wanted to include a benchmarking script with the installer that tests a variety of flames which range from simple (ie: linear) to complex (ie: crackle).

But in order to do this, I'd need a standard set of flames which would always be used in the script, so that results can be compared across different machines over time.

As I've stated before, I'm utterly incapable of making fractal art. So that's where you come in!

Would any of the talented artists here let me include your flames with the installer? I'd place your name in the filenames, the name field of the Xml, as well as in the about box, so you'd get credit in perpetuity.

I think this would be a great addition to Fractorium because some interesting new hardware has been unveiled this year, as well as more arriving in the medium term future.

Most benchmarking sites don't really include fractals as part of their standard benchmarking suite. So I imagine that adding Fractorium as a way of benchmarking the CPU and GPU would be a welcome addition to those who are interested in expanding their benchmarking suites. Especially since it supports AMD and Nvidia GPUs, as well as multi-GPU configurations, including ones that mix manufacturers.

Also, since Fractorium is now fully cross platform, it'd be a great way to compare Mac vs. PC hardware.

Please let me know either here or via PM if you'd like to contribute some flame parameters.

Please be advised I will select them for inclusion based on their complexity and visual appeal.

The next release is roughly 3 to 4 weeks away.
