  That's photoshop's fault, not povray's.

  I just can't understand why such an advanced image editing program is
so incredibly retarded when dealing with images with more than 8 bits per
color channel... It's just plain weird. If you switch to 16 bits per color
channel, you quickly find that 90% of the features are disabled.

  Why should POV-Ray adapt to a stupid retarded program? Why won't they make
it up-to-date?
