Daniel, Thanks for the quick response, your algorithm runs much faster. Is there also a way to keep the colors as well? For the NestList function there is no way to differentiate between which function is applied, is there?

Currently my method is using Barnsley's algorithm which randomly chooses a transformation and applies it to a previous point to get the next point. I then store the points in a list corresponding to the transformation that was applied to it. Is there a faster way to program this using functional programming in Mathematica?
