Strange. I don't know why this ended up as 16-bit. I turned the
+FN16(?) to +FN and it still gave me 16-bits. 

I did read in the POV documentation today, by coincidence, that this
would happen - but for some reason I was a little skeptical: surely,
POV would not give the deepest colour depth for a format unless
directly told to do so - unless +FN is stating that and I didn't
realise.

An interesting image. I see why you need the additional color depth. The
blue bar on the right might not be as subtle limited to 256 shades.

Striking and scary at the same time. Nice use of colours for a
nightmare scenario like this - that's how I see it anyway...

That is of course _if_ there was hardware to show more than 
8bits/channel. Did you mean that you have such a videcard?

You really need to read the text that comes with a posting. Read it
and realise that the 16-bit aspect was a mistake.

Wittering on like that makes you look like an ignorant fool.

Bizarrely, I had thought just the same! - I meant to post a message about it
but clicked the wrong button and it tried to send to IMBJR directly - but
didnt because he's entered a fake e-mail address.

Will IMBJR suffer the same fate, I wonder...

I actually think I might. I'm not sure -- I know the video card I have is
pretty beefy and over $400.
