Clipka, you shot the bird!

Okay, everyone: I herewith declare myself as a big fool!
I use POV-Ray for soooo many years, since around 1990 or so, and can you
believe it I just oversaw all the time of posting here, that I used:
QUALITY = 6
And did not even think about checking for the Q setting!!!!!
SHAME ON ME! I wasted so much of your all valuable time! But at least,
one more time the POV-Ray community has proven its great pioneer-alike
spirit! I owe you all my big thanks!
