Kaleidoscope Toy
Radial Balance Toy
I saved the mandala I created on the site. I played with the different settings on the Kaleidoscope toy and a lot of the shapes looked like colorful flowers. The radical balance toy was pretty interesting, i drew squiggly lines and there was a triangle circling around the lines, and then the image of shapes created from the squiggles appeared in a circle.
Very awesome websites ^_^
