FractalTrees X is a program that draws somewhat realistic silhouettes of binary trees with a fractal structure. It allows you to interactively change the properties of the tree, like the broadness, fullness, and number of branches.
FractalTrees you can also introduce normal (gaussian) randomness into the length and angle of the branches.
This program is basically a toy, but maybe you will find some use for it. Someone once used the previous version to decorate their website. Everything updates in real time now, so it can be fun to play with. The tree is truly fractal in structure, because it exhibits self-similarity. Even with random elements invoked, it is still statistically self-similar.
What's New:
This is a major revision. This is the first alpha release for version 2.0. The source has been substantially rewritten and is a LOT faster now. The UI is redone. The various image export options (copy and paste, export to TIFF, Print) work better now as well.
Release notes:10.1 is no longer supported, sorry
You might have to click "magic" twice to get a proper display in this alpha
Drawing in real-time as you change the controls is not supported in this alpha
Full source code is included (GPL)
Colour rotation is supported in the default (spectrum) view using the circular slider.
