Hi all. I'm having some issues with my code in this gl.pix codebox. I am trying eventually get a fractal pattern, to follow a tracked shape, but that is probably irrelevant rn. I am using a mandelbrot code from 

https://www.iquilezles.org/www/articles/mset_smooth/mset_smooth.htm and keep getting a "expression missing ')'" error. although I can't see what is wrong.

Hi, although i didn't get it to work completely, i found that one error you're having is mistaking 'vec2' as an op in gl.pix(openGL specifies vectors like that, but in gl.pix, it's always just 'vec' by itself, never 'vec2', 'vec3', etc.... the number of arguments you give create the dimensions automatically)

So when i rewrite your gl.pix code this way(i also cut out all the commented-out parts and shortened some of the if-statements, etc.), i get no errors:

}
val = 0;
if (n == maxIter) val = 0; else val = n - log2(log2(dot(z,z))) + 4.0;
out1 = val;

Awesome, Thanks so much for the fast reply Raja! 

I honestly wasn't expecting it to work, but am trying to get a billboarded 'paint brush' effect to combine with a mandelbrot or any type of fractal pattern . So i thought i'd start by smashing them together in the simplest way possible.

probably a simple gl.pix 'for loop' code problem.
