SORRY!

It seems that this message should have been in Moray-section. Well anyway, I
managed to fix to second problem (Moray&Pov co-work), but now there's just
a new problem :-(. Great. When POV-Ray is starting render it shows a alert
box, which says StretchDIBits () failed (Windows error). What the hell this
might be? In addition to this the background of my rendered image is
chequered like a chess board????

Sorry about this hassle...

J.K
