Colors Here, you set the two colors that make up your texture. You can use Black and white or the foreground/background
colors in the toolbox, or you can choose a color with the color icons. The Alpha Channels sliders allow you to
assign an opacity to each of the colors. (If the layer you are working on does not have an alpha channel, they will be
grayed out.)
Blend settings

Gradient You can choose between three functions to set the shapes of the waves that are produced: Linear, Bilinear and
Sinusoidal.
Exponent The Exponent controls which of the two colors is dominant, and how dominant it is. If you set the exponent
to -7.5, the left color will dominate totally, and if you set it to +7.5 it will be the other way around. A zero value is
neutral.

Filter Fractal Explorer applied
With this filter, you can create fractals and multicolored pictures verging to chaos. Unlike the IFS Compose filter, with which
you can fix the fractal stucture precisely, this filter lets you perform fractals simply.
