Tutorials
To help you to get up to speed quickly with Ultra Fractal, this chapter 
contains a complete set of tutorials. Starting with the basics, you will 
soon learn how to create your own fractals, change the colors, add 
layers, use masks, and create animations. 
The tutorials are organized in such a way that beginners can follow the 
steps in the main text without stopping to learn more advanced features. 
Small boxes on the right contain Tips, Hints and Learn More links for 
more experienced users.
The following tutorials are available:
