I tried to added some CA action into it. and some colorizing effects.
basically - left and right movement for partials added based on distance calculations with neighbor partials, and color is another distance calculation with scaling a randomized bias for rbg...

Most web developers don't do a lot of image editing and most companies don't have fancy images like this. Just look at reddit. It has an intuitive user interface that looks decent and doesn't distract people. However some companies are looking for very visual fancy websites and your skills will certainly help you there. Also some small companies may have you do graphical design in addition to normal web development. I would focus more on building nice looking websites that handle forms and data in unique ways and users don't have trouble with.

Nice. I'm not familiar with cellular automata rulesets. Need to Google it to see what that can do.
