Thanks Adam, yes i've tried that and you're absolutely correct, it does make for more interesting effects.
Also, have a look at the settings for some of the abstracts in Mike Dunn's shows. (Load the show's frame file, then fire up the abstract generator.) Seeing how he's done it will probably inspire you to try different things.
Doh!!!, what a brilliant idea. Why did I never think of that? 
So, if I load the frame file the sliders will automatically set to the settings that were used to create the original abstract?, how cool is that 
Finally, DZ posted a cool tutorial on making quick and easy abstracts here on PL a while back.
Here's the link.

Thanks Adam, you're an absolute mine of information, don't know what PL would do without you 
Seriously though, I love playing with the abstract generator. it's my favourite bit of software in the whole LD2000 suite. I just wish the preview window was bigger.
I'm getting better results now, but those beautiful colour/morph effects still elude me.
Cheers
Jem
Edit: Just watched the short video tutorial. I now need to get home and start playing again
