I voted "Quite nice". If you don't look at it too closely and let your imagination envision it to be a forest or something, it's quite beautiful. However, looking closer at it spoils this effect and you wind up noticing some disconcerting bits. I admire its elegance, nonetheless.

I don't like it.
I prefer symmetrical things. That is just too... chaotic for me. Gives me a headache. :?

I Googled Mandelbrot set and started reading, then I got dizzy. :? I'm very simple. I think the image is very interesting but I like more variation in color because it does kind of morph into a frayed old blanket. I'd like to see more though.

No. It is beautiful, but it is not the most beautiful thing I've seen.

No, it's ugly as sin, but I do like that variety of broccoli above!

It looks like a sculpture of some microscopic thing. It's certainly a good idea.

Ooooh.... I found it.... and I got lost in webpages. It makes me dizzy, but I can't stop staring. The animated ones makes me confused.. but I like it. Its like light filtering through trees, and particles of dust floating in the air.... I like it.

I don't feel anything. Pretty generic, in my opinion.

It looks very spacious and sophisticated... I wish I could get inside of the picture and feel these fractals, wander around, alone in complete silence...

It makes my eyeballs tingle but I love it. It's like a snapshot of living energy.
